Our least
favorite question is, unfortunately, one that we see quite a bit.
Readers who understand Islamic history and teaching, and thus
realize the danger that is posed to our future naturally want to
know what can be done to prevent this from happening.
Our conclusions
are that educating oneself, educating others, and speaking
truthfully about "the Religion of Peace" is the best start.
Islam is it's own worst enemy in that the more that is known about
it, the less attractive it becomes... to everyone.
Islam spreads like a virus. It radiates from Muslim countries that
are too diseased to support it and into healthy systems that are
that way because they have had the luxury of developing apart from
Islam. Once in the host system, the Islam virus uses the
existing machinery to make replicas of itself. Over time, the
host makes unilateral concessions to the religion, feeding and
appeasing it in the vain hope that it can be pacified.
Vital organs are co-opted and
eventually shut down as Islam advances. In a matter of time,
the entire system groans to an agonizing death and assumes the
condition of the diseased nations from which Muslims originally
fled. The virus then looks for new hosts to cannibalize.
Some Westerners, particularly those
with children (and an investment in the future), are far-sighted
enough to see where current trends eventually lead. Though
many Muslims are decent people, the religion itself always has a way
of bringing the radicals along with it. The radicals then
infest and influence the mainstream, and the rest of society pays
the cost.
A question that we often hear is,
“What can we do about it?”
First, let’s go over what
shouldn’t be done about it.
1) Do
NOT hurt Muslims.
Westerners generally don’t have a problem with this anyway, and have
shown remarkable restraint in the wake of horrendous terror attacks.
Bottom line: You don’t know any terrorists. The Muslims that
you know in your private life are not terrorists. Don’t harm
them or protect anyone who does.
2) Do
NOT harass Muslims.
The Muslims that you know personally are probably not much different
than you are. They have the same concerns for their children’s
future and the same interests in getting ahead in life. They
do not deserve to be harassed on account of a religion that they
probably either don’t understand all that well or may not even
believe too sincerely anyway.
3) Do
NOT vandalize the property of Muslims.
(Same reasons. Grow up.)
4) Do
NOT desecrate the Qur’an
(such as using a piece of bacon as a bookmark). It doesn’t
accomplish anything other than to give radicals another reason to
play the victim, get angry and, perhaps, hurt someone. It’s
also juvenile and offensive. Treat the Qur’an the way that you
would prefer Muslims treat whatever book that you consider sacred.
If you want to confront Islam, then
you must be truthful and objective, rather than rude and
slanderous. Don’t exaggerate or use absolutes. Don’t
pretend that all Muslims are bad people, or that everything about
Islam is bad.
The key to stopping Islam is
education,
because the more that is known about this 7th
century religion, then the less appeal it has in today’s world.
Muslim defenders know this, which is why they hide behind censorship
and book banning in the Islamic world and desperate but comical
appeals to political correctness and multiculturalism in the West.
Muslim organizations, such as CAIR, often use outright falsehood to
deceive others.
Non-Muslim Westerners should
understand that there is no reason to place Islam above criticism,
or Muslims above offense merely on that basis. In fact, there
is every reason not to do this. Islamic law poses a threat to
nearly every liberal value that the West holds dear.
Learn
as much as you can about why Islam is dangerous. Understand
its history. Learn how thousands of people can do brutal
things each year explicitly in the name of Islam and Allah, while a
billion others never seem to be terribly bothered about it.
In short, educate yourself.
Then you can educate others. And they can educate others as
well.
Write to political
leaders.
Inform them. Make them accountable for each compromised
standard and every freedom lost in the name of appeasement to Islam.
Expose the lies and double-standards. Denounce the
hypocrisy of Muslim nations.
Speak truthfully.
Speak tactfully.
If Islam wins, then civilization
loses. But at least we will have gone down swinging.
