So, it's come to this - the Muslim Brotherhood, now headquartered it seems in London [may wanna look into your immigration policy there] and being investigated for ties to terrorism by British security services as prelude to being rendered illegal in England, has threatened that if the review isn't stopped they may be forced to resort to terrorism - thus as far as I'm concerned bringing to a close this absurd dance of lunacy by the West of twisting itself into ever more delusional incoherence in hopes of appeasing the regressive forces of Islam. Can we stop the madness now, or are progressives just gonna naively plow on as they tend to do as if reality can be placated by ignoring it?
It's this simple, people - despite the role they play in bringing order to primitive or developing cultures, all religions are dangerous - their need to protect beliefs which by necessity must be held up as inviolable leads to a narrowness of thinking, intemperance and ultimately if left unchallenged extremism - this is especially true of religions which have not been tempered by historical facts, as Christianity has and Islam hasn't, and religions which are inherently political by nature, as Christianity is not but Islam most decidedly is. That is the reality and it will not be wished away by pretending it isn't there.
I sometimes think all leaders of Western democracies should be forced to take an intensive course in what exactly made Western Civilization great so they can return to the business of securing that greatness rather than hollowing it out from the inside with idiotic thinking as currently seems to be their wont - although, sadly ironic, if this course was taught at Harvard by some lefty bobble head that would probably lead to a doubling down on the madness rather than a staunching of it.
