Seriously, do we really smacking need an 'Islam' section on these forums? It's embarassing.
Islam is more than just a religion it is a political ideology that governs in parts of the world like the Islamic republic of Iran.
No, that is Islam.
Quote:is a set of ideologies holding that "Islam should guide social and political as well as personal life".[1] Islamism is a controversial neologism, and definitions of it sometimes vary (see below). Leading Islamist thinkers emphasize the implementation of Sharia (Islamic law); of pan-Islamic political unity; and of the selective removal of non-Muslim, particularly Western military, economic, political, social, or cultural influences in the Muslim world that they believe to be incompatible with Islam.[2] Some observers suggest Islamism's tenets are less strict, and can be defined as a form of identity politics or "support for [Muslim] identity, authenticity, broader regionalism, revivalism, [and] revitalization of the community".[3] And following the Arab Spring political Islam has been described as "increasingly interdependent" with political democracy.[4]

Comparable movements in other religions are none.
Quote:Iran is ruled by Islamic law administered by the Mad Mullah's so why should any political system that governs be above criticism in a politics forum, do you think Islamic rule should be above any criticism, do fascists tolerate critics, does Iran execute critics of the ruling Islamic regime by declaring them an enemy of god, why do you support a fascist political ideology like Islam?
So, you'd have real problems coping with Communism then?
Strawman What about the dictatorships which brook no criticism of their leader and their political movements?
strawman Again, the Islamic Republic of Iran is not unique in this regard yet your bigotry ensures you single it out because of it's religious basis.
Human rights watch and amnesty international are critical of the ruling Islamic regime which you stick up for Quote:Was the Islam section of this forum created by an aussie muslim called Abu Rashid who is also the absent moderator?
No idea. Do I care? Nope. I suspect Freediver created it, as he's the administrator.
It was created by a muslim, dont let your ignorance get in the way of the truth. So who are the hypocrites in the Quran, is that what allah calls moderate muslims?
