Saudi religious police face backlash
I really hate these Islamic Republics. They are no different than medieval European states when the Church and kings ruled supreme.
Sad that since the Muslim World in the Middle Ages surpassed Europe in science and mathematics and in fact led to the European Renaissance.
If it just weren't for the damn religion! lol. Its not the religion itself that really bothers me, its the interpretation of the Qu'ran by radical Muslims. Islam could have been totally different today because of the interpretation. The same as the radical interpretation of the Bible like the 18th century Protestant minister Jonathan Edwards or modern ones like Jerry Falwell. Its no different.
I think that it is really ironic that martyrdom is in reality a bigger idea in Christianity than Islam. Jesus was recorded as saying you must lay down your life to follow me. Then we have the accounts of early Christians dying freely for their faith in Roman coliseums. Islam is mostly about laws and regulations. I know all about their convert or die policy. lol. There should be a sign in those shithole countries before you cross the border that say 'CONVERT OR DIE'.
The whole point of being secular is that people can worship however they want and they can be left alone doing it. Being secular means the people have a common goal that doesn't involve dogma. They don't have to worry about "holy soldiers" coming to fuck them up, just tax collectors. lol.
Now I am not anti-Muslim...but I am anti fundamental and anti-abuse in ANY religion. Islam was founded on the worship of the Arab moon god and the 3 Daughters of Allah. The Christian trinity can be traced back to Hinduism with its tri-unity of Brahman. The Trinity is blasphemy in 2/3 of the Abrahamic religions. Most doctrines come from an earlier source.
Perhaps the true Allah (God) is really in each and every one of us....not in a book or a mosque.Anubis10012007 Reviewed by Anubis10012007 on . Saudi religious police face backlash RIYADH, Saudi Arabia - As the car stopped outside a Riyadh amusement park, two bearded men dragged the driver from the wheel and took the three women on a wild ride of more than an hour, bouncing over sidewalks and finally abandoning them on a darkened street. The women at first thought they had been kidnapped by terrorists. The two men however, said they were religious police. It might have gone down as just one more excess of zealousness by the forces charged with upholding Islamic Rating: 5
