"Mohammed is God's apostle. Those who follow him are harsh
to the unbelievers but merciful to one another" Quran 48:29
to the unbelievers but merciful to one another" Quran 48:29
THE SICKENING STORY of an 11-year-old Down’s Syndrome girl being arrested in Pakistan[1] for throwing away pages of a Koran prima (it was not even the Koran), and, as a consequence, is now facing death for blasphemy; must once more bring home to our politicians their ill chosen decision to allow this religion to make such an entrance into our society.
The young girl belonged to a Christian family who, after their daughter’s arrest had to flee in terror because their lives would be in danger from their Muslim neighbours. It pains me to think what this child is now going through. Beaten and unable to understand why, and ignorant of the charges she is being faced with; and all alone without a familiar family face to reassure her.
But it gets worse, an 11-year-old boy, a resident from the Christian Colony of Faisalabad, was brutally tortured before being killed. His family could only recognise him from a mark on his forehead. His lips, nose and belly were cut off, and his body badly burnt.
The boy’s mother Asia Bibi said "We neither received any phone call for ransom nor were we told that Samuel had committed blasphemy,". It seems that being a Christian was crime enough.
Penalties for blasphemy in Christian societies thankfully died out with the Enlightenment. However such medievalism has been given access to Europe and the UK in particular by our politicians. Under the rainbow banner of Multiculturalism, we now have over two million Muslims living among us in the UK.
Islam seeks to conquer the world for Mohammed; just as, from the 15th century onwards, Christian proselytising sought the same objective using similar means in, for instance, South America where the Christian faith, as well as those Iberian monarchs, coveted the Inca and Aztec gold.
But thankfully, as secularism advanced throughout the Christian world, such medievalism disappeared from the West’s religious culture. However it continues today as part of another great religion; Islam.
The Islamic world has never been faced with a Renaissance, Reformation, or Enlightenment, to humanise the faith and put it in its true place within a civilised society. Secularism is today blamed for many things in Western society including the absence of a morality that only a religious faith can make work – and as an atheist myself, I subscribe to such a belief.
ISLAM STILL TO THIS day, resides in a medieval backwoods where all sorts of feudal practices are still performed and minor transgressions punished by death, usually at the will of illiterate Islamic peasant communities who have known little social and cultural advancement in over 1400 years. Ever since Mohammed was forced from Mecca to Medina in 622AD.
Such a religious faith should have surely been kept at arm’s length when, those who reside over us in parliament, sought to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony[2] by liberal happy-clappies introducing us all to multiculturalism.
Multiculturalism was an experiment based upon skin colour rather than culture. For all that mattered to our liberal class, from whatever party they belonged, was that ethnic minorities should live together in England’s green and pleasant land in retribution for our past colonial sins.
Despite what they called it[3], our liberals were more concerned about the colour of a person’s skin than the culture they came from. Indeed much ignorance and little thought was ever given to culture, despite the multifarious warnings that were available. Presumably, once the Muslim nations such as Pakistan, imbibed British culture, then they would be so overcome by the appeal of Western culture, that they would at the very least tone down their medievalism, and, after two or three generations, become secularists and conform to a post-Enlightenment society. This was supposed to be the short cut that left out the Renaissance, Reformation, and Enlightenment. But, as we see around us today – the experiment failed.
WE 60 MILLION BRITISH have been cold-called by our politicians and have been brought into an ism that never registered in any manifesto for fear of losing votes. Yet we find ourselves today living aside people that do not speak our language: and in the case of those from Islamic nations like Pakistan who, as Muslims resort to the kind of barbarism described above, we have to zip our mouths for fear of causing offence.
We fought for centuries at the expense of hundreds of thousands of lives; to at first rid ourselves of the Roman curse, followed by the puritan curse. Religion within these isles was forced into a more temperate form of behaviour ultimately referred to as secularism. Once religion was put in its place, then science could be liberated to do what it eventually promised. Which left the Islamic world unable to advance because of their faith, whose strictures left them floundering within a previous century.
Since the so-called Arab Spring Christian communities have come under threat causing thousands to flee their Muslim persecutors. Tolerance is not part of the Muslim vocabulary when it comes to other faiths, as has been proven by the events in Pakistan and Egypt.
The indigenous people of these isles have been betrayed by their politicians for decades, ever since they put Powell to the wheel and drove him from public life. Now, it is becoming more and more apparent that he was right on the issue of culture – his naive accusers have inflicted, over the decades, a dangerous multicultural concoction that can only fall foul of disharmony and conflict.
As with the euro, where economies at different stages of economic progress were, through, a European idealism, brought together into a single European currency. We now see the same process entered into by our politicians, allowing whole cultures that are centuries apart in the case of the Islamic world to become a whole…what madness! We now live in the UK with female genital mutilation, exorcism performed on children, and, as in Rochdale the harvesting of young white women from our streets by members of our Muslim community, in order to gratify the sexual frustration that Islam imposes.
Decades of liberal guilt and colonial sensitivity has allowed this current danger to our culture to manifest itself – we have indeed been ill-served by our politicians.
