re: #3 Son of the Black Dog

The more I learn about Islam, the more strongly I believe that it IS primarily a political institution, dedicated to social control, but wrapped in a thin veneer of religion. Not that I think we should ban it, but it does need to go through a reformation.

Islam doesn’t separate the religion and the politics. The religion demands political control. The are so commingled as to be inseparable. Islam demands “virtue” and that “virtuous” behavior will be imposed by a theocracy.
