If you are Muslim, read your standard religous texts. Study the teachings of your leaders. IF you can, in good faith, support the basic teachings,
then you may claim to me Muslim. Not before.
In parting:
"Khomeini's works advocate vigorously converting or murdering all those who do not embrace Allah's holy meme. Then they urge a holy war on the
nations of the West.
The ayatollah wrote, "Any nonreligious [i.e. non-Islamic] power, whatever form or shape, is necessarily an atheistic power, the tool of Satan; it is
part of our duty to stand in its path and to struggle against its effects. Such Satanic power can engender nothing but corruption on earth, the
supreme evil which must be pitilessly fought and rooted out. To achieve that end, we have no recourse other than to overthrow all governments that do
not rest on pure Islamic principles, and are thus corrupt and corrupting, and to tear down the traitorous, rotten, unjust, and tyrannical
administrative systems that serve them.... If Islamic civilization had governed the West, we would no longer have to put up with these barbaric
goings-on unworthy even of wild animals....[Western governments are] using inhuman laws and inhuman political methods... Misdeeds must be punished by
the law of retaliation: cut off the hands of the thief; kill the murderer instead of putting him in prison; flog the adulterous woman or man. Your
concerns, your 'humanitarian' scruples, are more childish than reasonable."
Khomeini had a prescription for such problems: "All of humanity must strike these troublemakers [the governments of the West] with an iron hand....
Islam has obliterated many tribes because they were sources of corruption [i.e. sources of non-Islamic influence]...." Judging from the Ayatollah's
rhetoric, the next tribes he would have liked to see obliterated were those in Europe and America.
Allah is rapidly providing Khomeini's followers with a sword to carry out their master's wishes. He has offered Islam the fire in which the Koran
says those who follow false faiths are destined to burn: nuclear weaponry. He has also provided the long range missiles needed to use it. According to
the late imam's logic, there may be only one just and righteous thing to do: employ this technology to wipe out recalcitrant heathens like you and
me.
The modern growth of Islam is the coalescence of a superorganism drawn together by the magnetic attraction of a meme. But this meme has an advantage:
The social body it is trying to pull together has existed as a unified social beast in the past. The old reflexes of solidarity are still there,
waiting to be aroused.
The meme of the new Islam is not laboring to generate a small and fragile embryo. It is simply attempting to awaken a sleeping giant."
I say the same thing to Christians, Mormons, Buddhists, Taoists, etc...know your religoin before you profess adherence to it. How can you preach what
you don't understand or even have any knowledge of?
