@hingehead,
Quote:You were refusing to do anything but generalise,
Islam is not a race because Muslims come in all colors, but calling people racist for noticing true things about Islam works well with the myth of Islamophobia™ to confuse people. Is it Racist to Criticize Islam? names 18 non white human rights activists who are Muslim or were raised in Muslim countries and
live with death threats from other Muslims for criticizing institutionalized human rights violations in Islam, and are virtually ignored by Western governments, universities, and media.
Supremacism - the belief that a particular race, religion, gender, belief system or culture is superior to others and entitles those who identify with it to dominate, control or rule those who do not.
Jihad means struggle, and could be for many different things from conquering cancer to military conquest.
But the meaning in this web site for Islamic jihad is the same as Brotherhood theorist Sayyid Qutb, whose influence Georgetown Professor John Esposito described as “almost impossible to exaggerate”,
“Jihad in Islam is simply a name for striving to make this system of life dominant in the world.”
His detailed explanation can be summed up in plain english like this:
Jihad - Islamic warfare by any and all means, violent and non violent including deception, against non Muslims in order to subjugate them under the rule of Islamic law.
It’s false to say it only means that, but it’s also false to claim it only means inner spiritual struggle, or only a struggle against poverty or drugs or sugar.
Anyone who claims the word jihad in Islamic theology never means religious war using violent or non-violent tactics is either lying or doesn’t know what they are talking about.
Peaceful Islam - A school or institution of Islam that teaches Muslims to live in peace as equals with non-Muslims, indefinitely, and not use violent or other means to impose Islamic law on them. This does not exist.
Take a look at what Muslim scholars think and say before preaching about something you really know nothing about.
