>>Merriam Webster defines “religion” as “a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices.” Islam certainly qualifies as a religion by that definition.

Communism is a religion to the Left. Socialist Utopia. One world governance. Nowhere to run.

Pick up a college level book on Islam. Somewhere on the first page you’ll read something like this:

“The first mistake Westerners make is to use their own way of thinking about religion to try to understand Islam. Islam is a complete lifestyle that instructs followers every behavior, right down to how to drink water. Actions are either permitted (halal) or forbidden (haram). Followers MUST fully and completely comply, and the word “Islam” translates roughly to “I submit”. Islam encompasses law, politics and worship and it is impossible to separate one of these from the other.”
