READ AND EDUCATE
An old statement is often recited, "History is written by the winners." Nations such as China, USSR, and North Korea destroyed much of its population to force communism upon the survivors. Untold millions were slaughtered to force compliance. Individuals such as its Christian population were rounded up, tortured, murdered, and /or placed into forced work concentration camps. Under communism there can be no religion. The state in essence takes its place.
In the middle-east starting in 610 AD a fanatic saw opportunity in the lucrative caravan trade. He married a wealthy widow. Sought expansion by plundering and illegally exciting money from trans-Saharan Berber tribesmen. Using that wealth began to take he wanted. In a cave near mecca had an encounter with a demon like spirit. later claimed it to be the angel Gabriel. Who told him to write a series of new "Revelations" into one book broken down by chapters. The Quran was the result and Mohammed suddenly a, "prophet of a god called Allah." A god that allows its believers called Muslims to lie, steal, enslave, rape, and murder any that reject “Gabriel's” revelations. The way for conversion is the jihad or "holy war." Those conquered in order to live must submit to sharia law. Those that submit but refuse to convert must pay a jizyah (tax) in order to live and have a home.
The entire religion was made up and has no connection with Christianity or to the Old Testament Prophets such as Abraham, Moses, and Elijah. And, definitely no relation to the Son-of-God who is Jesus Christ. No just a cult created by a deceiver who was 100 % evil. A man who in his 40's marries a child. Takes his adopted son's wife for his own. And, many other disgusting acts. Both the Torah and the Bible details who the great “deceiver” has always been.
By the 700's Mohammed's personal quest began the large-scale genocidal operations across the middle-east and North Africa. Tens of thousands of Christian churches were burned and destroyed. Christians were tortured, enslaved, raped, murdered even burned alive or crucified. Responding to the horror European Christians attempted to stop the evil that is Islam through orders such as the Knights Templar and the Crusades. Portugal regained its borders and stopped the Islamic onslaught in the 1200's AD. It took Spain another 200 years to put to end Islamic atrocities. Today the threat that Thomas Jefferson warned all in America to avoid has resurfaced. Islam should never be treated as a religion. It is- as it always has been - pure evil. It can never function under The US Constitution. Sharia law rejects personal freedoms, gender equality, private property for anyone regardless of religion, and no freedom of religion. The Bible is outlawed and attempts at Christian Evangelism would bring immediate prosecution. In other words, Islam can never exist in a free Republic. Especially one that acknowledges Christ, allows the freedom to worship, and for evangelism to remain open to all. Remember this when you pray and worship. Remember this as you go and vote. Remember this when you see all the crosses marking the graves of our hero's. They died to preserve freedom and liberty!
Never let the history of the United States be determined by such a force of evil. And, above all remember John 3:16.
Isaiah Chapter 53
