Ecumenism: The Universal Heresy - Ecumenismo: La Herejía Universal

ENGLISH:

Ecumenism is παναίρεση panheresy (universal heresy)

The holy Fathers of the first three centuries in general… 

My dear Christians, I do not have enough time to tell you many characteristics about the Fathers of the first three centuries. I will tell you only two or three and I ask you to pay close attention. 

In the beginning, my Christians, in the first three centuries, our Christian brothers were persecuted. These are years of persecution. Rivers of blood of the heroes of our faith. The first years showed that the garment of our Church is very red (with blood), as a troparion says: "our Church is adorned with purple and fine linen." But despite the horrible persecutions, the Church was never afraid, but gathered its children in a secret place, often underground (the catacombs) and all together they celebrated the worship of Christ God. And not only this, they also psalmodied, in another previous kerygma we have seen the hymns that the Christians of the first three centuries sang.

(b) But these Christians not only developed worship, but also theological teaching. That is to say, the reason for the development of theology in the first three centuries has been the appearance of heresies. The heresies in these years came from three currents. One current was Judaism, which did not recognize Jesus Christ as the Messiah. Another current came from Hellenic philosophy. The followers of this current sought to mix philosophical concepts from the ancient Greeks with Christian teaching. And the third current that brought heresies was from the eastern religions.

The Holy Fathers of the first three centuries, with the wisdom of God that they had in abundance, and with many struggles, faced these three heretical currents to keep our faith pure, unstained, or influenced. Our faith, my brothers, does not accept any, but none, mixture of the teaching of Christ and the holy Apostles with another teaching. Of course, the Holy Fathers of the first three centuries and the following centuries after them, took from Hellenic philosophy and used only the expression or terminology, as a garment, with which they dressed their kerygma and their theology. But different ideas and concepts, foreign to the teaching of Christ, have been rejected by the Church since the first three centuries. Because our faith is like the eye. Does the eye accept a hair inside? No! So also the Holy Fathers of the first three centuries, and the later Holy Fathers imitating them. They fought a lot and were guardians so that not even the slightest foreign teaching was introduced into our faith.

My fellow Christians, when I talk to you about “Ecumenism”, it is what we have said before. “Ecumenism” means that together with our faith we also put Judaism, Papism, the Eastern religions and the philosophy of the ancients, and make a salad or alloy, to supposedly embrace the whole world. Please tell me: is this “παναίρεση (panéresi) panheresy or universal heresy” or not? My Christians, the holy Fathers of the first three centuries, although they were threatened by Caesar's razor, and fighting with a thousand and one difficulties, they fought to keep the faith clean and thus handed it over to us. It would be shameful and a great betrayal for us to alter our faith with the sophistry and charlatanism of “ecumenism.” We were born Orthodox, we drank Orthodox milk and we will die, yes, we will die Orthodox. Many times I speak to you about ecumenism, because it is necessary for us Bishops and preachers of the divine logos to do so today, because we are in danger from this satanic work more than ever today. Current ecumenism in those first three centuries was called “syncretism.” Those who support ecumenism today, especially some of them with habits (patriarchs, bishops, clerics, priests) read the struggles of the Fathers of the first three centuries against the ecumenisms of their time, that is, syncretism.

 

(c) In the period of the first three centuries of our faith we also have the holy Apologists. This, dear Christians, is what I told you before. As our faith was persecuted and many wanted to present the teachings of the Hellenic philosophers as equivalent or superior to the teachings of the Prophets and Apostles, the Apologists appeared. They wrote great magnificent texts and with these they demonstrated the greatness of Christ's teaching; and that the mind and philosophical nus cannot reach upon the divinely inspired teaching of the Prophets and Apostles. Finally, of all the admirable Fathers of the first three centuries, we express our admiration for the form and theology of Saint Ignatius the Theophorus (God-bearer), who with everything he writes, expresses the warmth of his heart for the love of Christ. and his strong longing for the Divine Communion of the Body and Blood of Christ. This Father tells us to lovingly love Christ (Christ is my eros, he says), the heart that has nothing worldly, nothing material, and yet that we vitally long for Christ and witness with martyrdom if necessary for Him. All this, my Christians , we will achieve it if we have correct faith and turn a deaf ear to “heresies”. Yes, Saint Ignatius and all the holy Fathers of our Church: “We do not turn a deaf ear” to heresies, just as you tell us, we anathematize them; and we curse them, as another great Father, Saint Cosmas of Aetolia, especially loved by us Hellenes, told us: “You must curse the Pope,” he told us. As disciples of the Holy Fathers we curse the Pope and Ecumenism. Because, as Orthodox Christians we know that “Paperism is heresy and Ecumenism is παναίρεση (paneresi) pan-heresy or universal heresy, the greatest, most dangerous and worst of all time.

ESPAÑOL:
El ecumenismo es παναίρεση panherejía (herejía universal)


Los santos Padres de los tres primeros siglos en general…

Queridos cristianos míos, no tengo tiempo suficiente para deciros muchas características sobre los Padres de los primeros tres siglos. Os diré sólo dos o tres y os ruego que pongan mucha atención.

En principio, cristianos míos, en los tres primeros siglos, nuestros hermanos cristianos eran perseguidos. Son años de persecuciones. Ríos de sangre de los héroes de nuestra fe. Los primeros años demostraron que la prenda de nuestra Iglesia está rojísima (de sangre), como dice un tropario: “nuestra Iglesia está adornada de púrpura y de lino fino”. Pero a pesar de las horribles persecuciones, la Iglesia nunca tuvo miedo, sino que reunía a sus hijos en un lugar secreto, muchas veces bajo de la tierra (las catacumbas) y todos juntos celebraban el culto a Cristo Dios. Y no sólo esto, también psalmodiaban, en otro kerigma anterior hemos visto los himnos que cantaban los cristianos de los tres primeros siglos.

(b) Pero estos cristianos no sólo desarrollaron el culto, sino también la enseñanza teológica. Es decir, el motivo para el desarrollo de la teología de los tres primeros siglos ha sido la aparición de las herejías. Las herejías en estos años provenían de tres corrientes. Una corriente era el Judaísmo, que no reconocía a Jesús Cristo como Mesías. Otra corriente venía de la filosofía helénica. Los seguidores de esta corriente buscaban mezclar conceptos filosóficos de los antiguos Griegos con la enseñanza cristiana. Y la tercera corriente que trajo las herejías fue de las religiones orientales.

Los Santos Padres de los tres primeros siglos, con la sabiduría de Dios que tenían en abundancia, y con muchas luchas, afrontaron estas tres corrientes heréticas para mantener nuestra fe pura, sin manchas, ni influenciada. Nuestra fe, hermanos míos, no acepta ninguna, pero ninguna, mezcla de la enseñanza de Cristo y de los santos Apóstoles con otra enseñanza. Por supuesto que los Santos Padres de los tres primeros siglos y después de ellos los siguientes, tomaron de la filosofía helénica y utilizaron solamente la expresión o la terminología, como prenda, con la que vestían su kerigma y su teología. Pero ideas y conceptos distintos, ajenos de la enseñanza de Cristo, la Iglesia los ha rechazado ya desde los tres primeros siglos. Porque nuestra fe es como el ojo. ¿Acepta el ojo un pelo en su interior? ¡No! Así también los Santos Padres de los primeros tres siglos, e imitando a ellos los posteriores Santos Padres. Lucharon mucho y fueron guardianes para que no se introdujera en nuestra fe alguna enseñanza extranjera, ni la más mínima.

Cristianos míos, cuando os hablo sobre el “Ecumenismo”, es esto que hemos dicho antes. “Ecumenismo” significa que junto con nuestra fe poner también el Judaísmo, el Papismo, las religiones orientales y la filosofía de los antiguos, y hacer una ensalada o aleación, para supuestamente abrazar a todo el mundo. Decidme, por favor: ¿es o no es «παναίρεση (panéresi) panherejía o herejía universal» esto? Cristianos míos, los santos Padres de los tres primeros siglos, aunque fueran amenazados por la navaja del Cesar, y combatiendo con mil y una dificultades, lucharon para mantener la fe limpia y así nos la entregaron. Sería vergonzoso y una gran traición para nosotros alterar nuestra fe con sofismas y charlatanerías del “ecumenismo”. Hemos nacido Ortodoxos, hemos bebido leche ortodoxa y moriremos, sí, moriremos Ortodoxos. Muchas veces os hablo sobre el ecumenismo, porque es necesario que hoy lo hagamos nosotros los Obispos y los predicadores del divino logos, porque peligramos de esta obra satánica más que nunca hoy. El ecumenismo actual en aquellos tres primeros siglos se llamaba “sincretismo”. Los que hoy apoyan el ecumenismo, sobre todo algunos de ellos con hábitos (patriarcas, obispos, clérigos, curas) estos que lean las luchas de los Padres de los tres primeros siglos contra el ecumenismos de su época, es decir, el sincretismo.

(c) En el período de los tres primeros siglos de nuestra fe tenemos también los santos Apologetas. Es esto, queridos cristianos, lo que os decía antes. Como nuestra fe estaba perseguida y muchos querían presentar las enseñanzas de los filósofos Helenos equivalentes o superiores que las enseñanzas de los Profetas y los Apóstoles, aparecieron los Apologetas. Ellos escribieron grandes textos magníficos y con estos demostraban la grandeza de la enseñanza de Cristo; y que la mente y el nus filosófico no pueden alcanzar sobre la enseñanza de inspiración divina de los Profetas y los Apóstoles. Finalmente de todos los admirables Padres de los tres primeros siglos, expresamos nuestra admiración a la forma y la teología de san Ignacio el teóforo (portador de Dios), quien con todo lo que escribe, expresa el calor de su corazón por la agapi a Cristo y su fuerte anhelo para la Divina Comunión del Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. Este Padre nos dice amar amorosamente a Cristo (Cristo es mi eros, dice), el corazón que no tenga nada mundano, nada material, y aún que anhelemos vitalmente a Cristo y testimoniar con martirio si hace falta para Él. Todo esto, cristianos míos, lo conseguiremos si tenemos fe correcta y hacemos oídos sordos a las “herejías”. Sí, san Ignacio y todos los santos Padres de nuestra Iglesia: “No hacemos oídos sordos” a las herejías, tal y como nos decís, las anatematizamos; y las maldecimos, como nos ha dicho otro gran Padre, san Cosme de Etolia, especialmente amado por nosotros los helenos: “Al papa tenéis que maldecir,” nos decía. Como discípulos de los Santos Padres maldecimos al Papa y al Ecumenismo. Porque, como Cristianos Ortodoxos conocemos que “el Papismo es herejía y el Ecumenismo παναίρεση (paneresi) pan-herejía o herejía universal, la más grande, la más peligrosa y la peor de todos los tiempos.

Con muchas bendiciones, Jeremías

Islam is Satanic

 

What every non-Muslim needs to know about Islam!

What you need to know about how dangerous Islam is and why there will never be peace in the Middle east as long as Muslims exist.

Here are 10, "Top ten Lists"?

Top 100 facts about Islam that Christians must learn:

1. Islam, as a religious system, is entirely of Satanic origin. The Devil is behind every aspect of it. It is a "monotheistic" form of the ancient moon worship that Abraham left in Iraq 2000 BC, but which his descendents through Ishmael have continued. When Muslims circle the Kabah en mass, the Devil is the true object of their worship. The Bible teaches that the Devil and demons use religions like Islam in order to be worshipped by man as God. "the Gentiles sacrifice things to demons and not to God" 1 Cor 10:20; 2 Chron 18:21-22; Acts 17:16-23; Lev 17:7 ; Deut 32:17; Ps 106:37; Rev 9:20; Rev 16:13-14; Rev 18:2; 1 Ti 4:1-2; Gal 1:8. That Islam is clearly of satanic origin is seen in how vicious the theological and physical attacks are against Christians or anyone who believes that Christ was crucified at all, or that Christ is God's Son. Islam to pagan Arabs is an excellent satanic counterfeit that has influenced 1/4 of the earth's population. Islam is certainly the Devil's greatest challenge against the one true God and and Saviour: Jesus Christ.
2. Although Islam is a monotheistic religion, it is really a pagan religion reformed and repackaged into monotheism. Islam is paganism in monotheistic wrapping paper. Muhammad chose one god, from among hundreds of pagan gods, to be his one monotheistic god. "Islam is Polytheism with a monotheistic veil". "Islam is Repackaged Polytheism."
3. Christianity is the religion where God sends his own son to die for your. Islam is the religion where Allah to die for him. Jesus said love your enemies. Muhammad said murder your enemies with a bloody sword. When Jesus was mocked, ridiculed and tortured, he turned the other cheek, and endured it in silence. "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth. When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead he entrusted himself to him who judges justly" (1 Peter 2:22, 23). When Muhammad was so much as questioned, he ordered their immediate murder.
4. "What are the highest values in Christian faith? Love, sacrifice, humility, and compassion for others, which includes longsuffering. What are the highest values in Islam? The highest is fighting for Allah especially if you die in the process. As far as an ordinary Muslim is concerned, his highest value is doubtless going to Paradise and enjoying all the sensual delights promised to him. Although virtues are of importance in Islam, you never hear that love or patience, longsuffering or goodness, or faithfulness or truthfulness are of the highest value. Prayer and good works in keeping the Five Pillars are most important. Prayer and good works are very important in Christianity also, but they are a means to an end, not the end in itself. The Bible teaches us that all the qualities of love are the top priority in a Christian's life because this mirrors the character of God (1 Cor 13:1-7). ... What is the Islamists' highest goal? It is without doubt to be martyred in a physical battle for Allah in extending his sovereignty or the rule of his law on the Earth. ... What is the Christian's highest goal? God tells us what His purpose is for us, and that ought to be our highest goal. "For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son" (Romans 8:29). Now Jesus is "in the express image of the Father" (Hebrews 1:3). This means that to be conformed to the likeness of Christ is to be conformed to the likeness of God, and this is God's purpose for us. It ought to be our highest goal in this life and in the life to come." (Islam Rising, Jim Murk, p200)
5. The center of focus of the Kabah that Muslims circle 7 times counterclockwise once a year during the Hajj, is a meteorite called the black stone. This meteorite is the reference point by which they count the 7 revolutions. It is the "zero" marker. This shows the true origin of the Hajj to be pagan. Obviously a real meteorite fell sometime before Muhammad was born and the pagan Arabs began worshipping it. A similar pagan worship of a meteorite is found in Ephesus when Apostle Paul visited it: Acts 19:23-36
6. It is clear, from a historical point of view, that Muhammad, as a youth participated in worshipping all the 360 pagan gods in the Kabah in Mecca which was owned and operated by the Quraish tribe to which Muhammad was member in good standing. As Muhammad grew up, he was influenced by Christians (monotheists) who condemned the polytheism at the Kabah. At some point in Muhammad's life, he was convinced by the Christians that Polytheism was wrong and sought to reject the 360 pagan gods he had grown up with. Muhammad was converted to the concept of monotheism through the influence and teachings of Christians. Being a proud "nationalistic cultural Arab," bent on preserving his traditions, Muhammad, decided to "reform" his native pagan religion, rather than adopt a completely different religion like Christianity. Muhammad took the top pagan god of the Kabah in Mecca (called Hubal and/or Allah) and chose it to be his new monotheistic god. This god was already considered the top god among other gods at the Kabah. Muhammad's strategy was simple. Rather than converting all the Arab people to the monotheism of Christianity, Muhammad merely banished the other 359 pagan gods and chose the one remaining to be the one and only god... what Muslims refer to today as "Allah".
7. Islam was born in 610 AD, a full 600 years later than Christianity! The Devil had just gotten Pope Boniface III to declare himself the universal bishop of all churches in the world... a claim the eastern orthodox churches never accepted. In 622 AD, Muslims wiped out the eastern church in a bloody slaughter, leaving the Bishop of Rome to become the dominant, (although apostate) force of Christianity for the next 1000 years.
8. When Muhammad was trying to convert one of his fellow pagan Arabs to monotheism, the conversation probably went something like this: Muhammad: "You know, worshipping all these pagan gods is really silly. There must be a supreme god, a "THE GOD". (the god is what Allah actually means) We already refer to the chief or head of the Kabah as "Allah", lets continue to worship that god, but do away with all the others. I don't want to discard the Allah, the Lord of the Kabah that we already worship, rather I only want to remove his wife and his daughters and all the other gods. And lets never refer to Allah again as "Hubal" or call him the moon god, because Allah, being our new monotheistic supreme god, created the moon.
9. In 1975 AD, the Muslim/Algerian President Boumedienne told the UN General Assembly: "One day millions of men will leave the southern hemisphere of this planet to burst into the northern one. But not as friends. Because they will burst in to conquer, and they will conquer by populating it with their children. Victory will come to us from the wombs of our women." Based on demographics, the Netherlands are currently most at risk of being taken over by the Muslims, but the cities of Paris and Brussels equally at risk. We predict the Eiffel Tower will be converted to a mosque within 50 year and fly the Crescent moon god symbol atop.
10. "This new monotheism is Satan's substitute for Judeo Christianity and seeks to take over the Earth. It is an attempt to copy aspects of both Judaism and Christianity, while at the same time cutting the real meaning and heart out of each and substituting a reasonable deception and fraud. Satan's name is Deceiver. If we seriously and carefully compare God's revelation given to the prophets of Israel and through Jesus and his disciples as found in the Bible with the Qur'an and the teachings of Muhammad and Islam, there is no other conclusion to make than that this religious charade is a very clever invention of Satan, the imposter. Islam provides no Savior, no grace, no salvation from sin, no lasting forgiveness, no real love and no intimate fellowship with God. At its heart it offers sensual or lust-of-the flesh satisfactions which are in the category of Satan's appeal to Eve's flesh in the Garden of Eden. Islam's promised Paradise, for example, which can be achieved by dying for Allah, is a well-watered garden filled with tasty food and drink and an unending heavenly orgy of sex. There is no mention of the spiritual heavenly joy of experiencing the eternal presence of God and His glory. A Muslim can never have a close personal relationship with God or "know" God as his Heavenly Father in this life or in the life to come. One can only have this relationship with Jesus Christ who said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6). It is too bad that Muhammad did not know this statement of Jesus." (Islam Rising, Jim Murk, p184)
11. "In many cases they (Muslims) do not even recognize what sin is. Their Perfect Model Muhammad was a robber, a murderer, a fornicator, a pedophile, a wife beater, a truce breaker, a liar, and one who had his enemies assassinated. We not only reflect the character of our heroes, we will reflect the character of our god, and Allah cannot be trusted completely. He is distant, capricious and changeable; he is not a loving father but a demanding taskmaster; he is cold without unconditional love; he hates the sinner and the corrupt, and predestines everything with seeming legalistic arbitrariness countenancing violence and the killing of all those who will not submit to him." (Islam Rising, Jim Murk, p198)
12. Islam literally means Submission. Western Imams knowingly lie to the media when they say Islam means peace.
13. Islam is not primarily a religion but a political control system for economic and territorial domination. It is fascism exactly like Hitler or Stalin that seeks to take over the world. A Muslim proverb says: "First we will wipe out the Saturday people and then we will eliminate the Sunday people." Osama bin Laden said, "We win because we want to die and you want to live."
14. Muhammad invented Islam in order to control the warring Arab tribes. Muhammad grafted to annual pagan pilgrimage (Hajj) into Islam in order to create a "no fighting between warring tribes" time, in order to facilitate commerce and trade.
15. Within 100 years of the invention of Islam, Muslims had wiped out 80% of all Christians on the face of the planet with the sword. The modern Orthodox Church was almost entirely destroyed. Before this Islamic-initiated holocaust, the Byzantine Church was 5 times larger than the "Western/Roman Catholic" church. Today the Roman Catholic church is 10 times larger than the Orthodox, as a testimony to this slaughter they endured at the hands of the Muslims. Had this slaughter not occurred, the Orthodox church would be 10 times larger than the Roman Catholic today.
16. The remnants of moon worship can be seen in Islam in the fact that the crescent moon is atop every mosque and that the 28 day sacred month of Ramadan, (annual pilgrimage of Hajj) starts and finishes with the crescent shaped phase of the moon . The croissant was invented in Vienna in the 16th century, being inspired by the crescent moon symbol of Islam. Islamic countries fly flags that still use the crescent moon with the stars in the middle are remnants of moon worship. Before Muhammad came along, the crescent moon represented Allah and the stars represented his daughters. (el-Lat, el-Uzza, and Manat) 
17. 
    
    Even the Islamic sword (scimitar) is shaped like a crescent moon in honor of their pagan history.
    
    
    
    
    
18. Islamic ritual, including the Hajj, the stand, the throw and the run were all practiced by the pagans long before Muhammad adopted them into Islam. Muhammad took these pagan practices and declared them to be the correct way to worship a monotheistic Allah. In this way, the pagans could keep their old pagan practices and apply them to one god rather than hundreds. It made conversion to Islam very easy for the Arabs since Islam felt the same as their paganism.
19. Islam is the restoral of moon worship Abraham gave up when he left the Ur of Chaldees. Abraham left moon worship of Iraq for the one true God. His son Ishmael was cast out and went to Arabia where he continued to worship the moon God. The crescent moon atop every mosque is the symbol that Ishmael went back to the very moon worship that his father Abraham abandoned.
20. Muslims cannot be trusted to keep political truces because Muhammad never did. Muhammad set the pattern of truce breaking employed by Muslims today. Yasser Arafat actually cited the fact that Muhammad broke the truce of Hudaybiyyah, as a precedent for breaking the Oslo accords. "A "hudna" isn't a peace treaty. It's a temporary truce called by a Muslim warrior who's losing in battle. It's pretty easy to understand how hudnas work by watching Israel fight Hamas and Hezbollah. Those two terrorist groups lob rockets and send suicide bombers into Israel for months; then, every once in a while, Israel deploys its military and flattens Hamas and Hezbollah, who then call for a "hudna". The UN intervenes, saving Hamas and Hezbollah to fight another day. That's a hudna: a tactical truce for a strategic advantage." Ezra Levant.
21. Whereas Muhammad only allowed his followers to have 4 wives, Muhammad had 22 wives, the youngest was six years old. Surah 32:50. Muslim men can have sex with as many of their own slave girls as they can buy. Sura 4:3,24. When Muhammad wanted to marry another man's wife, (Zayd) he got a "convenient" revelation from Allah that permitted Zayd to divorce his wife Zeinab, so Muhammad could marry her. Muhammad permitted his soldiers to have three day temporary marriages called a "muta" so they could have "legal sex" while away from their real wives at home. Today Ayatollahs grant marriages for specific periods of time (hours, days, months, years) , like leasing a car or an apartment. This is how a man made religion comes up with a "solution" to fornication and adultery.
22. Proof that Islam was invented by Muhammad, is proven by the fact that the Koran indicates that the Christian trinity is made up of the Father, Son and the Virgin Mary (Jesus Mother). This heretical doctrine was indeed taught by the Collyridlans and Ebonites who had fled to Arabia. Muhammad learned Christian doctrine through these heretics and incorrectly assumed it was representative of Christianity in general.
23. Zaid bin Thabit's Second Account of the Collection of the Qur'an in Hadith 509 proves that the Koran was never compiled into one volume during the life time of Muhammad. The Hadith shows how it was feared that portions of the Qur'an would be lost. This indicates that there was not yet a complete recognized cannon. Abu Bakr was not familiar with a collected Qur'an and said that Muhammad had never decreed it be collected. The best that was available was "fragmentary scripts." When ordered to compile the Qur'an, Zaid at first refused on the grounds that Muhammad had not done so. Zaid declared that it would be a difficult task. There were three methods of recording Zaid searched out - palm leaf stalks, thin white stones and also from the men who knew it by heart. One verse was found only in the possession of one man.
24. There were, originally, countless contradictory versions of the Koran until Caliph Uthman ordered the Qur'an collected into one volume about 40 years after Muhammad died. (about 650 AD) cf. Hadith 709 & 507. The only reason the modern versions of the Koran have only small variations between the various versions, is because a formal edict was issued in 800 AD that outlawed, under pain of execution, the possession of any Koran version other than the one chosen by Caliph Uthman. (Basically, Caliph Uthman chose a version of the Koran that we was familiar with.) Historically, it was not even the best choice, but the most convenient choice. Contrary to Muslim claims, there are no ancient copies of the Koran dating before 745 AD in museums.
25. The Arabs were polytheists and pagans until 600 AD. Their claims of being the only monotheistic religion is laughable given the fact that they were the "late bloomers" who adopted monotheism 2600 years after the Jews and 600 years after the Christians.
26. The Koran borrows heavily from the Bible and is a random collection of literature that includes confirmed fairy tails and myths. Reading the Koran is a toilsome and confused jumble of nonsense. Large portions of the Koran are impossible to accurately translate because the text is incomprehensible. McClintock and Strong say of the Koran: "It is humiliating to the human intellect to think that this mediocre literature has been the subject of innumerable commentaries and that millions of men are still wasting time in absorbing it." In other words, reading the Koran is a confusing waste of time, where as the Bible is beautiful, coherent with a simple and powerful message.
27. Islam, like Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons have progressive revelation. JW's call it "new light". Muslims call it "Nasikh". Jehovah's Witnesses were once instructed to celebrate Christmas, birthdays and salute the flag, but "new light" changed all that. Mormons, like all Muslims, were originally polygamists until Joseph Smith conveniently received a revelation from God on the eve of the US government outlawing the practice of polygamy.
28. "Nasikh" is the concept that newer revelation cancels older revelation. Today Muslims, who understand the principle of "Nasikh" deceptively quote the Koran to trick the media into thinking Islam is peaceful and tolerant of non-Muslims. The Koran, like the Bible, has an "old testament", that is abolished and not used as law and a "new testament", that is used by Muslims today. The abolished sections of the Koran were written in Medina when Muhammad faced his disciples to pray towards Jerusalem in an effort to sway the Jews to convert to Islam. It was during this time Muhammad taught toleration towards non-Muslims. When the Jews rightly told Muhammad to take a hike, he killed them and as a "snubbed and jilted lover" suddenly instructed his followers to forget praying towards Jerusalem and start praying towards Mecca. During the Medina phase, Muhammad taught toleration towards non-Muslims. During the Meccan phase, Muhammad started teaching "death to non-Muslims". Muslim leaders (Imams) deliberately quote from the abolished "Media" sections of the Koran when, for a short time, Muhammad preached tolerance, in a manipulative ploy to convert the Jews. These Imams know that the later sections of the Koran when Muhammad was at Mecca, preach death to non-Muslims.
29. Contrary to the deceptive claims of Muslims, the word "Allah" is never used in the Bible. There are no prophecies of Muhammad in the Bible.
30. Muslims who refer to Allah as a "loving father" will be put to death. Allah is a distant, cold, rigid, unknown god, never a loving father as in Judaism and Christianity.
31. In nations where Muslims are a minority, they claim Islam is a peaceful religion that worships the same God as Christians. However, when these same Muslims gain a majority, military or political control, they slaughter the Christians.
32. More Christians have been murdered at the hands of Muslims in the last 100 years, than all previous persecutions upon Christians combined back to the first century.
33. It is the formal stated policy of the Koran and modern Muslim leaders to take over the world and replace the constitution of the USA with Shariah law and install loudspeakers throughout the land forcing everyone to endure the "howling of the demons" 5 times a day and bow to the Moon God in prayer. They certainly would abolish our public noise bylaws to say the least!
34. Islam evangelizes with the physical sword, Christianity evangelizes with the sword of the Spirit (the message of the Gospel) Islam grows by placing a crescent moon shaped knife to the throat to force conversion. Christianity offers freedom of each individual to accept or reject the eternal life offered by Jesus Christ, the son of God.
35. Allah, the Muslim moon God, can and does break his word and promises because "he is god". Jesus taught that students are never above their teachers. This may be instructive in dealing with Muslims in politics, business, diplomacy and socialization.
36. The Koran plainly and openly instructs men to physically beat their "insubordinate" wives. (Koran 4:34)
37. To the Muslim, before the day of resurrection and the second coming of Christ, there will be "17 fearful signs in heaven" and "8 lesser signs on the earth".
38. The highest and greatest reward for Muslim men is to go to heaven where he will have 72 bashful dark eyed virgins (houris) at his sexual disposal and whim. We wonder what Muslim women get as their great reward? (One woman speculated their reward may be to be rid of Muslim men!) The description of heaven is exactly what a 7th century Arab male would find appealing in the physical sense only: 80,000 servants, 72 beautiful sex slaves, wine and booze, fruit, shade, fine clothing and jewelry, carpets made of silk, music etc. In fact we wonder if Hugh Hefner is in fact a secret Muslim, given the fact that he is living now on earth, like Muslim hope to live like when they get to heaven. It is puzzling why Muslims forbid wine, booze and alcoholic drinks now, but they will be permitted in heaven. But moral consistency is not important to a Muslim, given the fact that even Yasser Arafat built and owned a large casino in near Jericho, Israel, even though gambling is also forbidden to Muslims.
39. 
    
    
    
    
    
40. What we are experiencing today in Islamic terrorism is the normalized pattern Muslims learned from Muhammad. Muslims never negotiate, compromise or enter peaceful co-existences with non-Muslims that are considered permanent. So too Muslims are content to dwell and sound reasonable and peaceful, until they reach large enough majorities to start flexing their terrorist muscles as we recently saw in the European riots and in France. Muslim quest for power and world domination is like a creeping weed or a slow dripping faucet that non-Muslims would be wise to take note of and action against.
41. Saddam Hussein believed he was the reincarnation of the Nebuchadnezzar of the Bible, who conquered the Jews in 586 BC. He, like all Muslim leaders including the current president of Iran (Ahmadinejad), believe Israel should be exterminated and wiped off the face of the map. These same Muslim leaders who want to commit genocide and holocaust against Israel today, also denounce the German holocaust of the second world war as a myth invented by Jews for sympathy. It is the formal stated goal of most Muslim leaders to recapture and destroy Israel because they believe this is one of the things that must happen before Christ can return. Historically, Arab countries sided with the Nazis in the extermination of Jews, while today they dismiss the very holocaust they supported as a "Zionist myth".
42. Muhammad taught that the highest and noblest thing one could do for Allah, was to fight with the sword and/or die in the process. He taught that in heaven, the shade is provided by large swords (Hadith 1:25). Now that's a strange umbrella indeed! He taught that 24 hours of slicing Christians and pagans into bloody pieces with the sword was better than a month of prayer and fasting.
43. Modern Muslims in the west knowingly lie about the ruthless and cruel nature of Muhammad and have publicly stated things like, "Muhammad was such a peaceful man that he wouldn't even bend the twig of a branch of a tree." This is rather untruthful, given the fact he exterminated and plundered many towns and caravans to evangelize his new religion.
44. Muslims live in an alternate historical universe and reject every history book in every library in every country in the world... The only history books they accept, are those that say Adam built the Kabah in Mecca, Jesus was a Muslim who made the pilgrimage to Mecca etc.
45. Muslim leaders have been documented openly promoting silly myths like: 1. Jews were driving the planes that hit the world trade towers under the authority of the FBI and the advice of Israel to make Muslims look bad. 2. The day the World Trade Towers fell, the TV footage of Palestinians dancing in the streets was faked by CNN. So not only do Muslims live in an alternate historical universe, they live in an alternate logical universe.
46. The only iron clad guarantee of immediate entrance into heaven assured the Muslim is to die while murdering innocent non-Muslims with swords, guns, suicide bombs. Such actions surely spread the military and political control of Islam for "king Muhammad" and should be a simple and obvious sign to the unbiased observer, that Islam is a form of fascism that uses religion to conquer new lands.
47. The Crusades initiated by Pope Urban II in 1095 AD, was a retaliation for the Muslim slaughter of 7000 Christian pilgrims who tried to peacefully visit Jerusalem in 1065 AD. Of course they could also be considered a 450 year delayed retaliation for the Muslim slaughter of almost 100% of the Christians from Alexandria through Israel to Asia. All of Europe would be Muslim today had Charles "The Hammer" Martel (grandfather of Charlemagne) not halted the slaughter of Christians in 732 AD begun by Muhammad himself 100 years earlier. "Charles's victory has often been regarded as decisive for world history, since it preserved western Europe from Muslim conquest and Islamization." (Britannica) Christians had turned the other cheek for 450 years of Islamic genocide against Christians. Today, Islamic Imperialism continues to spread with the murder all the Christians within their power to execute. Europe and the West should take this warning seriously.
48. Pope Urban II does not escape our criticism however. He lowered the high bar of Christianity to the low moral level of Islam. Echoing Satan's instructions to Muhammad, the Pope spoke where God was silent by promising the Christian soldiers that they would go straight to heaven if they died in the Crusades. He also cloned the Muslim slogan of "As Allah wills, with one of his own: "Deus Vult" (God wills it). While the Muslim slaughter of Christians is plainly mandated by the Koran and Muhammad as "Islam par excellence", Jesus outright forbade the murder of Muslims, for simply being Muslims. Yet it is important to keep in mind that the Crusades were not offensive actions, but provocated defensive actions. After the slaughter of 7000 unarmed pilgrims at Jerusalem, the Pope decided to send another group of "pilgrims" whose innocent intent was the same as the first: visit Jerusalem. But these pilgrims were also armed soldiers who, unlike the first 7000, were capable of defending themselves when the Muslims attacked them. While the Crusades where a provocative but passive incursion into Muslim controlled lands, no Muslim blood would have been shed, had they merely let the Crusaders pray in Jerusalem and leave in peace. Unfortunately, when the Muslims did attack, the Crusaders went too far by slaughtering everything in their path, including both Muslims and Jews. This slaughter was historically, a dark stain on Christianity, although it paled in the magnitude of the Muslim slaughters that happened 400 years earlier.
49. Muslims say, "Thanks to your democratic laws we will invade you from the inside. Thanks to our religious laws we will rule over you." There is no reciprocity of the freedoms offered Muslims in the lands where they came from.
50. Apart from oil production, the GDP (gross domestic product) of all Arab nations combined is less than a single European nation, a large US state or the province of Ontario in Canada. Without oil, Arabs would be hopelessly part of the third world for centuries to come. Arabs don't manufacture and produce stuff the world want to use. They are living off of the "welfare of the oil" in their land. Even then, they need American genius, technology and manpower to get it out ground. Arab nations are a welfare states where their money is handed to them from the hard labors of the west. Arab nations are like a lazy, unproductive and uneducated son of a rich man who inherits a large sum of money and then lives the life of a king on the money. Arab nations have more in common with Paris Hilton, then they care to admit! From an economic point of view, they just sit back and collect the oil royalty checks each month without doing a thing and think the blessing is from Allah. In a paradox, it is the very money the west sends these Arab nations that has funded all of the recent Islamic terrorism and aggression around the world and posses a threat to the west.
51. Inventing and "Developing mass commercial aviation and soaring skyscrapers was the West's idea; slashing the throats of stewardesses and flying the planes into the skyscrapers was radical Islam's idea. 
52. The "moderate Muslims" living in North America quietly support the destruction of Israel. On rare occasions (or when it makes them look good to naive western Media outlets), they will criticize suicide bombers. Even Muslims living in the USA, have a fundamental hatred of both the USA and Israel. Almost all Muslims living in Canada openly and vocally voice their hate for both the USA and Israel. They only time Muslim organizations stand up for freedom, is to defend the democratic freedoms we offer them, not criticize the open slaughter and torture of Christians in the very lands where these same Muslim leaders were born. For example, almost all Muslim organizations in the USA oppose the "Patriot act". These Muslim organizations often have under the table sympathy for active terrorist groups in the Middle east. None of them would protest if the constitution of the USA was replaced with Shariah law.
53. Bibles are forbidden anywhere inside Saudi Arabia, the "offence" being punishable by death. When a Muslim converts to Christianity, Muhammad ordered the person to be killed.
54. There is often an obscene hypocrisy between what Muslim leaders say in English to westerners vs. what they say in Arabic to Muslims.
55. Suicide bombers openly call themselves terrorists with pride since the Koran calls for Muslims to act as terrorists in Koran 8:12. "I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them".
56. There are at least 20 direct parallels between Mormons and Muslims. The Parallels are so striking, some speculate that Joseph Smith studied and copied Islam. Other's view the similarities as proof that the same demon "angel" spoke to both Smith and Muhammad.
57. Muhammad would "experience" epileptic type fits when he received revelation from Allah.
58. Muhammad reacted to images and symbols of the Christian cross the exact same way that a "vampire reacts to garlic". Being terrified of the cross, may have been learned by Muhammad from the Devil himself, since Satan was defeated by the cross and is a real source of terror for the devil. We would expect the servants of Satan to be like their master.
59. Home grown in the west Muslim suicide bombers "are a literal baby boom." 
60. In Europe, more Muslims attend Friday mosques, than Christians attend Sunday churches. Islam is not growing by conversion, but immigration. Only 2% of European's attend church today. 40 years ago, 50% attended. Muslims don't actually convert many non-Muslim people, unless they put a knife to their throat. The Muslims grow by as many babies as they can. "In every mosque of Europe the Friday prayer is accompanied by the exhortation with which the imam addresses the Muslim women: 'Bear at least five children each couple'" (Oriana Fallaci)
61. Every baby aborted in Canada is replaced by a Muslim immigrant on an almost one to one basis. Every year in Canada, there are approximately 330,000 live births 105,000 abortions by home grown Canadians. There are 210,000 immigrants each year into Canada. Today, Muslims are the second biggest supplier of immigrants to Canada. If abortion was banned and Canadian families had just one more kid, we would not need any immigrants into Canada to keep the economy afloat! The abortion rate in Canada is 30% of live births. For Russia it is 70%! Multiply the Canadian figures by ten to get the approximate US figures. If Western countries would ban abortion, they could then allow immigration out of Christian compassion, not economic necessity.
62. Europe's Islamic leaders view Europe as a Muslim colony that will soon have Sharia law. Solid science shows that within 20 years many European nations will be literally taken over by the Muslims.
63. "Christianity had its blood-drenched moments, but the Spanish Inquisition, which remains a byword for theocratic violence, killed fewer people in 150 years than the Jihad does every year." 
64. The jilbab (Female Muslim fashions featuring eye slits) was invented in the 1970's by fanatical Muslims in Saudi Arabia, who, because of US money from oil sales, have evangelized the rest of the Muslim world into wearing the Jilbab with only eye slits. Muhammad borrowed the idea of women covering themselves from the Jews and Christians. Muslim women are told in the Koran to cover themselves. However the specific eye slist version of the fashion being forced upon women today, is only 30 years old. The eye slit fashion was invented about the same time little children first started dressing up like Darth Vader for Halloween, "to which at a casual glance is not dissimilar". 
65. "Post-Christian European culture is already post-cultural and, with its surging Muslim populations, will soon be post-European. ... Most mainline Protestant churches are, to one degree or another, post-Christian." 
66. "How bad is it going to get in Europe? As bad as it can get- as in societal collapse, fascist revivalism, and then the long Eurabian night, not over the entire continent, but over significant parts of it. And those countries that manage to escape the darkness will do so only after violent convulsions of their own."
67. "You can't breed at the lethargic rate of most Europeans and then bitch and whine about letting the Turks into the European Union. Demographically, they're the kids you couldn't be bothered to have." 
68. "Islam is a 21st century political project driven by 7th century ideology." 
69. "Iran's hardline spiritual leaders have issued an unprecedented new fatwa, or holy order, sanctioning the use of atomic weapons against its enemies. In yet another sign of Teheran's stiffening resolve on the nuclear issue, influential Muslim clerics have for the first time questioned the theocracy's traditional stance that Sharia law forbade the use of nuclear weapons." (UK Telegraph 19/02/2006)
70. "We are not fighting so that you will offer us something. We are fighting to eliminate you." (Hussein Massawi, Hezbollah Muslim terrorist leader)
71. In 2003, Muslims in San Juan Capistrano, California forced a Roman Catholic high school to change the name of their football team from "The Crusaders" to "The Lions". Later that same year and only twenty miles away in Irving, California, a Muslim Football league's New year Tournament, organized by Muslims, named their teams: "The Intifada", "The Mujahideen", "The Saracens", "The sword of Allah". (Reported in the LA Times)
72. Zacarias Moussaoui, the 20th high-jacker of the world trade center proclaimed, "America, you lose" upon being sentenced to life, instead of to death like he deserved. "Nine out of twelve U.S. jurors agreed that the "emotional abuse" Mr. Moussaoui suffered as a child should be a mitigating factor." 
73. The United Nations, otherwise known as the "Useless Nothings" has only once had the guts to apply the label of "totalitarian regime" to a member UN state in recent history. Yes indeed in 2004, Boutros Boutros-Ghali applied the term to the USA.
74. "If one looks at their comparative dissemination patterns, Christianity spread by acquiring believers and then land; Islam spread by acquiring land and then believers."
75. "On March 11, 2002, 6 months to the day after Mohammed Atta and Marwan al-Shehhi died flying their respective planes into the World Trade Center Tower One and Tower Two, their flight schools in Florida received a letter from the Immigration and Naturalization Service informing it that Mr. Atta and Mr. al-Shehhi's student visas had been approved" 
76. "The last people around in any numbers will determine the kind of society we live in, and right now, the last people around Europe will be Muslim. For many nations, it's already too late."
77. "Multiculturalism was conceived by the Western Elites not to celebrate all cultures but to deny their own: it is, thus, the real suicide bomb." 
78. "It's not black (the bomber) and white (the rest of us); there's a lot of murky shades of gray in between: the terrorist bent on devastation and destruction prowls the streets, while around him are a significant number of people urging him on, and around them a larger group of cocksure young male co-religionists gleefully celebrating mass murder, and around them a much larger group of "moderates" who stand silent at the acts committed in their name, and around them a mesh of religious and community leaders openly inciting treason against the state, and around them another mesh of religious and community leaders who serve as apologists for the inciters, and around them a network of professional identity-group grievance-mongers adamant that they're the real victims, and around them a vast mass of elite opinion in the media and elsewhere too squeamish about ethno-cultural matters to confront reality, and around them a political establishment desperate to pretend this is just a managerial problem that can be finessed away with a few new laws and a bit of community outreach. It's these insulating circles of gray-the imams, lobby groups, media, bishops, politicians-that bulk up the loser death-cult and make it a potentforce. And way out at the end of this chain of shades of gray is the general population. And sometimes enough of them bleed into the gray blur of passivity and defeatism, as in Spain. Sometimes they don't, yet, as in America. And sometimes, as in the United Kingdom, they talk about defiance and the old Blitz spirit, but they make a thousand trivial concessions day by day. That's how great nations die-not by war or conquest, but bit by bit, until one day you wake up and you don't need to sign a formal instrument of surrender because you did it piecemeal over the last ten years."
79. "After the carnage in Spain, Sheikh Omar Bakri Mohammed told Lisbon's Publica magazine that a group of London Islamists were "ready to launch a big operation" on British soil. "We don't make a distinction between civilians and non-civilians, innocents and non-innocents," he said, clarifying the ground rules. "Only between Muslims and unbelievers. And the life of an unbeliever has no value." The cleric added he expected to see the banner of Islam flying in Downing Street. "I believe one day that is going to happen. Because this is my country, I like living here," he said. "If they believe in democracy, who are they afraid of? Let Omar Bakri benefit from democracy!" You think that sounds ridiculous? The Islamic crescent flying over 10 Downing Street? You'd be surprised..."" 
80. "After September 11, the first reaction of just about every prominent Western leader was to visit a mosque: President Bush did, so did the Prince of Wales, the prime minister of the United Kingdom, the prime minister of Canada and many more. And, when the get-me-to-the mosque-on-time fever died away, you couldn't help feeling that this would strike almost any previous society as, well, bizarre. Pearl Harbor's been attacked? Quick, order some sushi and get me into a matinee of Madam Butterfly! Seeking to reassure the co-religionists of those who attack you that you do not regard them all as the enemy is a worthy aim but a curious first priority. And, given that more than a few of the imams in those mosque photo-ops turned out to be at best equivocal on the matter of Islamic terrorism and at worst somewhat enthusiastic supporters of it, it involved way too much self-deception on our part."
81. "In Europe today, as in the thirties, the political class prostrates itself before an insatiable force that barely acknowledges the latest surrender before moving on to the next invented grievance. Indeed, a formal enemy is all but superfluous to requirements. Bomb us, and we agonize over the "root causes." Decapitate us, and our politicians rush to the nearest mosque to declare that "Islam is a religion of peace." Issue bloodcurdling calls at Friday prayers to kill all the Jews and infidels, and we fret that it may cause a backlash against Muslims. Behead sodomites and mutilate female genitalia, and gay groups and feminist groups can't wait to march alongside you denouncing Bush and Blair. Murder a school full of children, and our scholars explain that to the "vast majority" of Muslims "jihad" is a harmless concept meaning "healthy-lifestyle lo-fat granola bar." Thus the lopsided value macabre of our times: the more the Islamists step on our toes, the more we waltz them gaily round the room." Buy the book: "America Alone", Mark Steyn
82. "Clearly, a civilization that feels guilty for everything it is and does , will lack the conviction to defend itself." (Jean-Francois Revel, French philosopher)
83. The New York Times, is a left wing, secular progressive Newspaper in serious financial decline because of it's obvious hypocrisy. When the Danish cartoon controversy arose, the editors said it would be wrong to reprint the cartoons because responsible and civilized news organizations must "refrain from gratuitous assaults on religious symbols." Christians were quick to point out the hypocrisy of the paper, since New York Times had printed a full colour piece of "artwork" where the Virgin Mary was covered in elephant dung in 1999 and another piece: a crucifix inside a jar of the artists own urine. Of course, Christians find this artwork offensive, but no more offensive than the content of Hollywood movies, prime time sitcoms or the person cursing the name of Jesus in front of you in the line up at the coffee shop. Christians follow the example of Jesus and turn the other Cheek. Muslims follow the example of Muhammad and murder.

Virgin Mary with elephant dung falling on her praised by the New York Times in 1999.

Crucifix inside a glass jar of the full artists own urine advertised by the New York Times in 1989.

84. When Muslims complained that burqa was necessary for women to wear, even when driving a car in New Zealand, Greg O'Connor, the president of the New Zealand Police Association insightfully observed "If one's belief system was so strong that you didn't want to show one's face then perhaps that belief system should extend to not driving." Mark Steyn commented: "Indeed. If your clothing can't evolve out of the camel-train era, maybe your mode of transportation shouldn't either."
85. An Islamic States of America, an Islamic Republic of France, an Islamic Kingdom of Belgium, an Islamic Dominion of Canada would all very quickly be societies in decline, living on the accumulated capital of their pre-Muslim past-as, indeed, much of Islam did at its zenith. 
86. The advantage for the United States and, to a lesser extent, other parts of the English-speaking world is that Europe is ahead in the line, and its fate may wake up even the most blinkered on this side of the Atlantic. 
87. Fertility rates of world countries: (A birth rate of 2.1 is zero growth rate.)

Niger: 7.46 (Islamic) Mali: 7.42 (Islamic) Somalia: 6.76 (Islamic) Afghanistan: 6.69 (Islamic) Yemen: 6.58 (Islamic) USA: 2.11 New Zealand: 2.01 France: 1.89 (France's fertility rate is high only because of the large number of Muslim babies being born.) Ireland: 1.9 Denmark: 1.77 Netherlands: 1.72 UK: 1.6 Australia: 1.7 Canada: 1.48 EU average: 1.38 Germany: 1.35 Japan: 1.32 Austria: 1.3 Italy: 1.23 Russia: 1.14 Spain: 1.1

Quotations from the Koran:

1. 2:190-193 Fight in the cause of God, those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for God loveth not transgressors. And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out: For tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; But fight them not at the sacred Mosque unless they first fight you there; But if they fight you, Slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith. But if they cease, God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in God; but if they cease, Let there be no hostility except to those who practise oppression."
2. 2:216-217 Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But God knoweth, and ye know not. They ask thee concerning fighting in the Prohibited Month. Say: "Fighting therein is a grave (offense); but graver is it in the sight of God to prevent access to the path of God, to deny Him, to prevent access to the Sacred Mosque, and drive out its members. Tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter. Nor will they cease fighting you until they turn you back from your faith if they can. And if any of you turn back from their faith and die in unbelief, their works will bear no fruit in this life and in the Hereafter; they will be Companions of the Fire and will abide therein.
3. 2:244-245 Then fight in the cause of God, and know that God heareth and knoweth all things. Who is he that will loan to God a beautiful loan, which God will double unto his credit and multiply many times? It is God that giveth (you) want or plenty, and to Him shall be your return.
4. 4:74-77 Let those fight in the cause of God who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter, to him who fighteth in the cause of God, whether he is slain or gets victory, soon shall We give him a reward of great (value). And why should ye not fight in the cause of God and of those who, being weak, are ill-treated (and oppressed)? Men, women, and children whose cry is: "Our Lord! rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from Thee one who will protect; and raise for us from Thee one who will help!" Those who believe fight in the cause of God, and those who reject faith fight in the cause of evil: so fight ye against the friends of Satan: feeble indeed is the cunning of Satan. Hast thou not turned thy vision to those who were told to hold back their hands (form fight) but establish regular prayers and spend in regular charity? When (at length) the order for fighting was issued to them, behold! a section of them feared men as, or even more than, they should have feared God: they say: "Our Lord! why hast Thou ordered us to fight? Wouldst Thou not grant us respite to our (natural) term, near (enough)?" Say: "Short is the enjoyment of this world: the Hereafter is the best for those who do right: never will ye be dealt with unjustly in the very least!
5. 4:95-96 Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and fight in the cause of God with their goods and their persons. God hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home). Unto all (in Faith) Hath God promised good: But those who strive and fight Hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a special reward: Ranks specially bestowed by Him, and Forgiveness and Mercy. For God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
6. 5:51 O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily God guideth not a people unjust.
7. 5:72-73: They do blaspheme who say: "God is Christ the son of Mary." But said Christ: "O Children of Israel! worship God, my Lord and your Lord." Whoever joins other gods with God, - God will forbid him the garden, and the Fire will be his abode. There will for the wrongdoers be no one to help. They do blaspheme who say: God is one of three in a Trinity: for there is no god except One God. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them.
8. 8:12-15 Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instil terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them." This because they contended against God and His Apostle: If any contend against God and His Apostle, God is strict in punishment. Thus (will it be said): "Taste ye then of the (punishment): for those who resist God, is the penalty of the Fire." O ye who believe! when ye meet the Unbelievers in hostile array, never turn your backs to them.
9. 8:37-39: In order that God may separate the impure from the pure, put the impure, one on another, heap them together, and cast them into Hell. They will be the ones to have lost. Say to the Unbelievers, if (now) they desist (from Unbelief), their past would be forgiven them; but if they persist, the punishment of those before them is already (a matter of warning for them). And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in God altogether and everywhere; but if they cease, verily God doth see all that they do.
10. 9:5 But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (trick in war for deceiving and outwitting the enemy); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practice regular charity, then open the way for them: for God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
11. 9:14 Fight them, and God will punish them by your hands, cover them with shame, help you (to victory) over them, heal the breasts of Believers
12. 9:20 Those who believe, and suffer exile and fight with might and main, in God's cause, with their goods and their persons, have the highest rank in the sight of God: they are the people who will achieve (salvation).
13. 9:29 "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the last day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and his apostle nor acknowledge the religion of truth of the people of the Book (the Jews and the Christians) until they pay the Jizya [tax on non-Muslims] with willing submission and feel themselves subdued."
14. 9:41 Go ye forth, (whether equipped) lightly or heavily, and strive and struggle [fight in war], with your goods and your persons, in the cause of God. That is best for you, if ye (but) knew.
15. 9:73 O Prophet! strive hard [wage war] against the unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell, - an evil refuge indeed.
16. 9:123: O ye who believe! fight the unbelievers who gird you about, and let them find firmness in you: and know that God is with those who fear Him.
17. 22:38-39 Verily God will defend (from ill) those who believe: verily, God loveth not any that is a traitor to faith, or shows ingratitude. To those against whom war is made, permission is given (to fight) because they are wronged-and verily, God is Most powerful for their aid
18. 25:52 So obey not the unbelievers and fight strenuously with them in many a strenuous fight.
19. 47:4 Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them): thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): but if it had been God's Will, He could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He lets you fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the Way of God, - He will never let their deeds be lost.
20. 48:29: "Those who follow Muhammad are merciless for the unbelievers but kind to each other."
21. 60:4: We have renounced you; and enmity and hatred is begun between us and you for ever, until ye believe in Allah alone
22. 61:9-11 It is He Who has sent His Apostle with Guidance and the Religion of Truth, that he may proclaim it over all religion, even though the Pagans may detest (it). O ye who believe! shall I lead you to a bargain that will save you from a grievous Penalty?- That ye believe in God and His Apostle, and that ye strive (fight) in the Cause of God, with your property and your persons: that will be best for you, if ye but knew!
23. 66:9 O Prophet! make war on the infidels and hypocrites, and deal rigorously with them. Hell shall be their abode! and wretched the passage to it!

2. Hadith 1.24 "Narrated Ibn `Umar: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers"
3. Hadith 1.25"Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle was asked, "What is the best deed?" He replied, "To believe in Allah and His Apostle (Muhammad). The questioner then asked, "What is the next (in goodness)? He replied, "To participate in Jihad (religious fighting) in Allah's Cause."
4. Hadith 19:4294 "Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war."

Words of Muslim leaders:

1. "Those who know nothing about Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war. Those people are witless. Islam says: 'Kill all the unbelievers just as they would kill you all!' Does this mean that Muslims should sit back until they are devoured by the infidel? Islam says: 'Kill them, put them to the sword and scatter them.' Islam says: 'Whatever good there is exists thanks to the sword.' The sword is the key to Paradise, which can be opened only for the Holy Warriors! Does all this mean that Islam is a religion that prevents men from waging war? I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim." (Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini)
2. "In the Muslim community, the holy war is a religious duty, because of the universalism of the Muslim mission and the obligation to convert everybody to Islam either by persuasion or force. The other religious groups (Christianity and Judaism) did not have a universal mission, and the holy war was not a religious duty to them, save only for purposes of defense. (Ibn Khaldun, The Muqadimmah: Ail Introduction to History, Islamic historian, 1377 AD)
3. "Islam makes it incumbent on all adult males to prepare themselves for the conquest of countries so that the writ of Islam is obeyed in every country in the world." Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, Iranian Shiite mullah)
4. "the religion of Islam could be above all, so that all areas of life could be guided by Islam, and so that the earth could be cleansed from unbelief" (The Islamic Council in Chechnya)
5. "The foremost duty of Islam is to depose the government and society of unbelievers (jahiliyyah) from the leadership of man." (Sayyid Qutb, Egyptian)
6. "Uniting the five pillars of Islam is the principle Jihad (lit. struggle). In Islam a Muslim must struggle against himself and his habits to submit fully to God. He must also struggle to guide his family, relatives, and friends to bring them to Islam and to convey the message of Islam itself. Since Islam is totalistic, Muslims wherever they may be, must struggle and sacrifice their energy, time, and material resources to establish Muslim congregations, mosques, madrassas (religious schools) for the maintenance and spread of Islam. Where Muslims make up a substantial fraction of the population, they must struggle to establish the Islamic Shariah (law) as their rule for living, with the aim to ultimately establish a full Islamic state in which Islam would be the ruling ideology and system. To understand this last point is very important for it is part and parcel of Islam to seek its full manifestation and where Muslims fail politically or economically, they also fail spiritually. It is innate to Islam to be militantly uncompromising with alien systems since all sovereignty and glory belongs to God, to the Prophets (PBUH) and to the believers."
