Why Islam is Anti-American

Or more accurately, why America is primed to fear and/or hate Islam.
 
Yoda wasn't too far off when he said "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to the Dark Side." I would add "Ignorance leads to fear."
 
Ignorance (The condition of being uneducated, unaware, or uninformed), perhaps isn't the best word for America's relationship with Islam. Maybe unsympathetic, uncomprehending or antipathetic would be more descriptive. When I say "America" and "Americans", I'm referring to the overwhelming majority. I believe that most of the readers of this site are above the crowd mentality of the masses so please don't take offense (whether Muslim or American or both) at least until you've read this post to completion.
 
We understand what we are told about the Islam faith but it doesn't jive with the cores of our lifestyles. It's like being told that there are people who live in the sewers who walk with their hands and eat with their butts. It seems contradictory to our norm.
 
No Islamic visual images or depictions of God are meant to exist because such artistic depictions may lead to idolatry. Moreover, Muslims believe that God is incorporeal, making any two or three dimensional depictions impossible. Even I, as an atheist, know that God is supposed to look kind of like Santa Claus but a little more dignified.  For those feeling confused already, Muslims and Christians worship the same God. The Qur'an, the central religious text of Islam, is believed to be the last in the succession of messages from above, including the Torah, Psalms and Gospel. Many details and people are similarly mentioned on both the Qur'an and the Bible.
 
The second pillar of Islam is salah, the requirement to pray five times a day at fixed times. Each salah is performed facing towards the Kaaba in Mecca. Prayer is preferably done in a prone position with close contact to the Earth. Christian organized worship primarily takes place on Sundays is done while kneeling or sitting. Why do "they" pray differently to the same God?
 
Islamic law forbids intoxication yet Christian ritual prescribes the use of wine in the Eucharist. From 1920 to 1933 the US banned the manufacture, sale, or transportation but the 21st amendment repealed the prohibition set forth in the 18th. It is the only amendment to be repealed by another amendment of the Constitution. In the United States today, more than 15 million Americans are estimated to suffer from alcoholism. Alcohol is present at celebrations, weddings and in our homes.
 
Islam tradition prevents the consumption of pork. Sausage, bacon and ham are staples of the American diet. Ham much like alcohol is typically present at holidays and religious celebrations.
 
My point is that there are many traditions and laws of the Islamic faith that contradict the norms of American culture. This potentially creates a barrier that must be broken.
 
In the grander scheme, we have more in common than we have differences. We are all human. We all need food, shelter, water and sleep. We have compassion for our friends and family.
 
There should be no cultural or religious difference that is greater than our ability to find common ground. Like an urban myth, the aspects of Islam that are most commonly known by your average American are those that seem contradictory to our everyday lives.
 
Investigate those who you find different from yourself.

would be a comparison of Islam & Judaism.  Why do Muslims hate the Jews?  They say it's religious differences sometimes (but look, they both ban pork!) Is it the land that was 'returned' to the Jews at the end of WW2?  Is that the fundemental issue?  Like it or not our society hasn't really presented much of a discussion on the basis of their hatred towards one another except in generalities it seems to me.  I would like to know what it is from a religious standpoint if thats a large factor.  Hmmm... ripe for wiki'in.

You brought up some valuable points - but I think that your studying is far from complete.  Wine was never banned from religious ceremonies.  In fact, during prohibition, a lot of the boot leg alcohol that was available was actually sold from the church to bootleggers.  When Lindberg has his big celebration bash, our government went to local churches to gather wine!  Messed up.

Why is Islam such a huge success i.e. despite all the pressures and all the propaganda machines all over the world writing against Islam and depicting its followers as sub-humans i.e. "terrorists". Let me tell you my view on that. I believe the God of this universe (which contains more than 300 billion galaxies and each galaxy contains on average 300 billion stars) actually communicated with us through various prophets. And He sent down his sciptures which needed to be followed by the people in that time. However, Muhammad was sent as the last prophet and for all the people and alll the times. He was given Quran, a literal word of God. Now how can one find out if Quran is really a word of God? or not? i.e. did Prophet Muhammad invented it himself or was he really a prophet and was sent this book. This can only be done, if you read Quran yourself with an open mind. Quran contains countless examples proving that it is a word from God. Some of those can be seen here: http://miraclesofthequran.com http://islamguide.com Ladies and gentlemen, if he Muhammad was a TRUE prophet, there are huge reprecussioins on you, if you don't follow him. Quran promises HELL FIRE for ETERNITY if you disbelieve in this book. And don't think that if you don't read Quran or avoid it, you will not have to be accounted for. The saying is: Not knowing the law is not an excuse! Best Regards, Ammar Khalid

Silly Ammar, you didn't even read the post.
 
You are probably trolling around, searching blogs for anti-islam messages and posting your propaganda in their comments. If you had read the post, you would see that I'm promoting peace and understanding.
 
Instead you have offered an ignorant commercial for your religion that only hurts your own credibility. You have reduced the teachings of the Quran to nothing more than comment-spam.
 
p.s. Totally stoked about that "HELL FIRE for ETERNITY" stuff.

To Ammar Khalid I am a writer and historian. For the record: I don't believe Mohammed founded the religion of Islam. Nor was he the first prophet of Islam. His first wife Khadija was the holy one. Mohammed was simply her mouthpiece, just as he was in the trading company which Khadija owned. In fact, the original faith of Islam actually began as a persecuted branch of Jewish-Christianity called the Ebionites. Following Khadija's death, Mohammed hijacked the religion Khadija had founded, and turned it cruel and predatory.

hi jason, I read your post :) and I am a Muslim live here in Malaysia and as stated you are Atheist, not believe in God is it. Your points : 1)Cristian and Islam have the same GOD I disagree, the Cristian believe in "The Trinity is a Christian doctrine, stating that God is one Being Who exists, simultaneously and eternally, as a mutual indwelling of three persons (not to be confused by "person"[1]): the Father, the Son (incarnate as Jesus of Nazareth), and the Holy Spirit" for me it is quite confusing 3 in 1 or 1 in 3, for muslim, we have only one GOD. 2)Salat performed by Muslim is different from Christians, of course.We worship different GOD. The purpose of salat is primarily to act as an individual's communion with Allah. It enables one to stand in front of God, thank and praise Him, and ask for Him to show one the "right path" (as mentioned in surah al-Fatihah which is recited in every prayer). In addition, the daily ritual prayers serve as a constant reminder to Muslims that they should be grateful for God's blessings. It ensures that every Muslim priorities Islam over all other concerns, thereby revolving their life around God and submitting to His will. Prayer also serves as a formal method of remembering God. 3)About alcohol, pork consumption and things like head scarf, fasting and muhrim. There are reason behind all this religious practices mentally and physically. Despite all the difference, doesn't make we hate Christians or Americans. Islam is a peace religion, and does not tolerate terrorism. But if you blamed the Palestinian people, you should go there and see how they are suffering. Women and children are killed by you know who in the name of counter terrorism. Your title for me is quite misleading,and can create wrong first impression or maybe to get a little controversy. :). I agree with you, we should focus on our common ground as human but we should respect each other religion and belief.We live in harmony here in Malaysia, despite different races and religion. Do come here sometime hehe sorry Jason if I just spam your comment box PEACE :) [Trying HARD to make money online]

Dear Iankapo I read your reply to Jason with more than casual interest. It appears you are a moderate Muslim. If so, I am grateful, because Malaysia (which is a very beautiful place) and the rest of the world are safer because of it. However, as a moderate Muslim I have two questions for you: Question #1: Your reply to Jason, said the following: “for muslim, we have only one GOD…(instead of) the Father, the Son …incarnate as Jesus of Nazareth, and the Holy Spirit.” If the original version of Islam (not the current version of Islam,but the original version – the one founded in Mecca) had only one god, how to you explain the fact that the Koran, which has since been massively edited, erased, rewritten, and jumbled-up so it could be used as a tool to political power (www.TheMoslemInstitute.com) still refers to god by the title “WE”???? Doesn’t sound like one god to me, unless god has a split personality. Question #2: Assuming you really are a moderate Muslim, and not a militant Muslim, are you willing to repudiate militant Muslims who commit acts of terrorism and murder in the name of god? If you really are a moderate Muslim, will you declare such terrorists to be misguided souls who have been deceived by fanatical and corrupt mullahs and imams who use Islamic teachings concerning terrorism, all of which were added decades (and even centuries) after the faith was originally founded, as a means to acquire political power? I await your answer. Dane Dahl

I am not ashamed to say I have a very major problem with Sharia law. It disgusts me. I couldn't give a rat's whether or not you eat pork or whether you think Jesus is the Son of God or merely a prophet, but start cutting hands and feet off for theft (or any crime), whipping people, stoning them to death and hanging them from cranes for crimes of sexual immorality and you will lose my sympathy pretty damn quickly. It's a disgrace.

You'll get no argument from me. You couldn't have made a more valuable or wiser statement than this: "Investigate those who you find different from yourself." So true! Sending a big hug throughtto my favorite Gorilla!

lankapo, our religions are not as different as you think. Russian Orthodox Christians wear scarves during service, fast very regularly and are urged to pray regularly and even methodically. Jason was right, we need to understand each other better because we obviously do not. Amelia, point taken. I understand that too. It's almost like we live in different centuries in addition to different countries. These are things from the past that we can't even stomach, never mind relate to. I know I would be dead under those laws. I happen to love pork and while I'm not an alley cat I'm sure my "morality" would be in question under those laws. That's why Church is "the one thing needful!" :)

This is a sensitive issue. I don't think Islam or muslims hate other religions or anti-American. Don't misjudge that. Muslims follow a religion of peace, mercy, and forgiveness, and the majority have nothing to do with the extremely grave events which have come to be associated with their faith.Because Islam has been defined as a religion, it became convenient to reference Islam to Christianity and Judaism. Here lies the problem.The West formalises Islam as segmented. They transport wholesale their understanding of Christianity/Judaism to Islam. Along the way they created secular Islam. But secularism is alien to Islam. The latest in the ‘rectification’ process of Islam is Islam Hadhari. Islam Hadhari is not a new religion. It is not a new teaching, nor is it a new madhhab (school of jurisprudence). Islam Hadhari is an effort to bring the Ummah back to basics, back to the fundamentals, as prescribed in the Qur’an and the Hadith, that form the foundation of Islamic civilization. If Islam Hadhari is interpreted sincerely and understood clearly, it will not cause Muslims to deviate from the true path.

Well, I'm going to disagree with your stance on Islam. Sure, most Americans don't know the tenants of Islam, nor do they care to find out. But, there are some of us who do know and know what we don't like. Yes, Islam forbids what you've mentioned above but, do you know that Islam believes that everyone was born a Muslim? And since we were all born a Muslim, those of us who are now not Muslims have turned their back on the faith? Do you know that the major schism between Islam and Christianity is that they believe that Jesus Christ was just a prophet like their Muhammad. Many Christians, including myself, find this to be an insult. These are just a few things I'll name, just know that not all people believe everything the media says. Some of us know a bit more.
Jason's picture
"Islam believes that everyone was born a Muslim? And since we were all born a Muslim, those of us who are now not Muslims have turned their back on the faith?"
 
So? Doesn't every other religion in the world believe the same thing? Isn't that why Christianity plagues the third world with missionaries, spreading the word of their beliefs?
 
"they believe that Jesus Christ was just a prophet like their Muhammad. Many Christians, including myself, find this to be an insult."
 
I believe that Jesus and Muhammad were both delusional heretics or at best, sly con-men but I don't go preaching on the blogs of others - that's insulting and kinda crazy.
 
"Some of us know a bit more."
 
Dee, you are a fear mongering, hate filled bigot. You have been brain washed by your parents/church to hate those who are different than you in an act of medieval self-preservation. You are the American Taliban and are an embarrassment. Your religious intolerance is treasonous in the eyes of America's patriotic.
 
I implore you to consider the reasons why you are following the orders of a Bronze Age cult, trying to indoctrinate others and spreading hate speech in hopes of sparking yet another holy war,
Dee's picture
Brainwashed...oh please! I lived in a Muslim country for over a year. I remember not being allowed to go out as I pleased without a male escort. I remember being told and made to feel like scum because I wasn't one of them. Sure, the majority of Muslims are nice people, and family orientated. What do you think happens if one of their family members decides Islam isn't for them? Hey, what happened when someone like you decided to make fun of Muhammad in a cartoon? Not Patriotic! I've got more patriotism in my little finger than you in one of your amoebas! I'm a disabled vet and I did my time! I did my time for loud mouthed, free speech hindering people like you! I'm PROUD that I served this country! I served you! and defended your right to be as obnoxious as you want to be. People in thiscountry have a right to say/write/blog what they feel whether others agree with them or not -- I wouldn't have it any other way. My parents never mentioned or bashed Islam or any other religion EVER You're an atheist -- GREAT I defend your right to believe as you wish but don't call me a bigot because I have different views. I tire of people like you who only want to grant free speech to a select few. Know this...I won't SHUT-UP!

"What do you think happens if one of their family members decides Islam isn't for them?"
 
I don't know - send them to Jesus Camp? Perform an exorcism?
 
"Hey, what happened when someone like you decided to make fun of Muhammad in a cartoon?"
 
A few death threats and some temporary boycotts.  Same thing that happens when people make fun of Jesus...or teach evolution. And that's not even a crime sometimes.
 
"free speech hindering people like you!"
 
If I'm hindering free speech, why am I allowing you to comment on my blog? Would I be able to come to your blog, spouting off my own propaganda and not get deleted? I wouldn't do that however, because I don't preach my views and try to push them on others without provocation.
 
"I've got more patriotism in my little finger"
 
Then why are you trash talking other religions on the internet? Don't all Americans deserve the right to practice whatever religion they want without persecution? Freedom of religion is a universal human right - whether you agree with their customs or not. I'm not saying that you don't have the right to discriminate against muslims I'm just saying that your hate-speech is counter productive to the evolution of human culture.
 
"My parents never mentioned or bashed Islam or any other religion EVER"
 
Maybe if they had mentioned Islam and given you a proper education, you wouldn't be so afraid of it.
 
"
don't call me a bigot because I have different views"
 
I'm not. I'm calling you a bigot because you're a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance. <-that's the definition of "bigot"
 
"grant free speech to a select few"
 
What?? I do not have the power to either grant or deny free speech. Speak all you want but just be aware that the educated, patriotic and disillusioned will always be around the corner, waiting to counteract your jibberish.

Seriously? You said....
 
"Who's trash talking other religions?" and then right after that, " I believe the concept [tenants of Islam] is a wolf in sheep's clothing."
 
That's not trash talking?? What if I were to say the same of the Bible?
Dee's picture
That's not trash talking?? What if I were to say the same of the Bible? People have said things like that about the Bible. In fact people have said worse! They're entitled to their opinions whether we like them or not. This is my whole point. No it's not trash talking it's stating my opinion. If we follow your line of thought, anybody who voices a dissenting or opposing opinion would be considered a trash talker. That's ridiculous! How's that logical? Why not wipe the word opinion out from the dictionary. Why not pass laws against dissent? Oh, boy! let's just obliterate the Bill of Rights completely...NOT! What ever! If you want to know more of what I think about this convo, read my blog.

And of course you know I couldn't state the readings to which, you refer. You knew that before you asked the question. No, I haven't read the Qu'ran nor do I intend to, I know the stance it has on Jesus Christ and that's where my line is drawn. I've heard Muslims say that, remember not all people in the US have be completely isolated. No, I wasn't in Iraq, that's war is being fought by the younger, much younger generation. Not all of us believed the wmd hype. In fact quite a few of us believe it was all about oil. When Muslims attacked the United States that's all the excuse Georgie-Peorgie needed to go into Iraq. Ok, I'm tired of playing with kids...see ya'll later.

The WHY? of Terrorism in Islam This comment is directed to well-meaning but horribly uninformed pacifists. I am an American living in Asia. I am not Moslem, but I am a writer and historian. I would like to share some information with you: information concerning Moslem terrorism, and why the United States, its military forces, and its intelligence services must continue to be vigilant, and when appropriate, respond to Islamic terrorism with relentless, overwhelming, and deadly force. This information may help you understand what is going on not only in India, Pakistan, and China, as well as other parts of Asia, but also the Middle East, as well as Africa, Europe, and even the United States. In the not too distant future, Moslem extremists intend to involve you and your loved ones, as well as a vast number of other innocent victims in a man-made catastrophe: an organized and violent calamity of biblical proportions that is based on teachings taken from the Koran. Disregarding the social, economic, and political factors that serve as underpinnings for Islamic terrorism, I will address the more fundamental issue: the religious teachings that sanction violence against non-Moslems and against women. Here are seven verses from the Koran. These scriptures have been translated into modern English. …murder, crucify, or cut off the hands and feet of non-Moslems…Chapter 5 Verse 33 - The Koran …create terror in the hearts of non-Moslems …cut off their heads…Chapter 8 Verse 12 - The Koran …and fight non-Moslems until Allah’s religion is the only one…Chapter 8 Verse 39 - The Koran …of all the loot you plunder from non-Moslems, 20% belongs to Allah and to Mohammed. Chapter 8 Verse 41- The Koran (Author’s note: Loot included kidnapped female sex-slaves.) …Take as many as four wives from the women you are sexually attracted to … Chapter 4 Verse 3 - The Koran …God has made men superior to women… Virtuous women are obedient. If a woman becomes disobedient, beat her. Chapter 4 Verse 34 - The Koran …When it comes to marriage, Allah makes it legal for you to take as wives, women whom your right hand possesses. Chapter 33 Verse 50 - The Koran (Author’s note: This verse talks about the “loot” non-Moslems call… kidnapped female sex-slaves.) Most people in the western world have never heard of these astonishing scriptures, but they are in the Koran … along with a relatively short list of others, just like them. This is important because not all Moslems are the same; there are two very different types. Militant Moslems view these verses as commandments from their god – a violent, primitive god. They think these teachings apply to life in the Twenty-first Century and they try to use them, regardless of the suffering and mayhem they create, whereas moderate Moslems ignore such verses because they were uttered a long time ago: when the Arabian peninsula, from whence Islam came, was a wild and savage place. Historians tell us these terrorist teachings are part of a cluster of ferocious beliefs that were deliberately added to one specific part of the formerly peaceful and tolerant Koran. These changes were made decades after the faith was first organized. In fact, historians also tell us Islam didn’t simply fall from the sky as a full-blown religion, but rather evolved from a persecuted sect of Jewish-Christians. The first Moslems were actually part of a larger group of Jesus’ followers called the Ebionites. Ebionites were peace-loving disciples of Christ, who shared their wealth with fellow believers, and taught that a man should marry only one wife. In fact, women were much more independent in the Ebionite Jewish-Christian days of Islam. They were more influential too. I say this because my research has determined that the first prophet of Islam may have been someone other than Mohammed: I believe the first prophet was a very special Arabian princess named Khadija the Pure. Khadija was Mohammed’s first and only wife for twenty-four years. Khadija was fifteen years older than Mohammed. She was considered to be fabulously wealthy, and she was Mohammed’s employer. Mohammed on the other hand, before he became Khadija’s employee, was an impoverished youth who had been raised as an orphan. Ultimately Mohammed worked his way up to a position as Khadija’s business manager. With time, Khadija grew fond of Mohammed. Khadija asked Mohammed to marry her! Even though Khadija had already converted to Christianity, throughout her lifetime Mohammed’s first and only wife for twenty-four years remained an influential Arabian princess in the ruling family that controlled worship in the Kabba Temple, with it’s pantheon of more than three hundred pagan gods and goddesses. Clearly, Khadija was a person of great influence in Arabian society. www.TheMoslemInstitute.com After Khadija’s death, Islam was hijacked by a cartel of corrupt men, headed by Mohammed himself. New beliefs were added to the Koran, old beliefs were deleted or relegated to unimportance, and the religion was changed beyond recognition. In the end, Islam abandoned many of its Ebionite Jewish-Christian teachings and turned cruel and predatory; women suffered the most: they became the focus of repression, scorn, and violence. Today, although moderate Moslems are loath to admit these ideas, and many of them are terrified to voice criticism of their militant Islamic brothers, because of fear that violence will come to them and their families, the fact remains that these added teachings are not the original beliefs of Islam; they are amendments: They are the terrorist teachings of Islam. In the near future, militant Moslems hope to unleash a Jihad: a Moslem holy war upon the non-Moslem world: especially the United States and Western Europe. Because the terrorist teachings of Islam sanction deception, treaty breaking, and war, as well as looting, murder, kidnapping, terrorism, and human slavery (including sexual slavery), so long as these crimes are directed against non-Moslems, there is no limit to the things these fanatics can do. But the scariest part: Militant Moslems will do everything… in the name of god. During this violent holy war, these fanatics believe Allah will grant them harems of kidnapped sex slaves taken from destroyed cities and nations, as well as enormous fortunes of loot plundered from the non-Moslem world. The Koran says, ransoms paid to Moslem terrorists, to redeem stolen property, and kidnapped men, women, and children, are part of the Islamic loot these vicious criminals are entitled to. Islamic Law given in the Koran even allows Moslem men to force their kidnapped female sex slaves to marry them in Moslem wedding ceremonies, and bear children for them: whether the women want to or not. If the Moslem fanatics die while committing these crimes against humanity, they believe Allah will admit them to paradise and bless them luxurious palaces filled with seventy-two virgin brides, as an eternal reward for their cruel deeds. With that said, it is important to remember that the majority of Moslems are moderate, decent people, who recognize such teachings as obsolete and out of place in the Twenty-first Century. In spite of enormous cultural and ideological differences that exist between the Judeo-Christian world and the Islamic world, in the author's opinion, it is with this moderate Moslem majority that any long-term resolution to the Islamic terrorism issue will ultimately be negotiated. However, given the massive population increases taking place in the Moslem world, at a time when poverty, chaos, criminality, and religious fanaticism are burgeoning, the numbers of Moslems worldwide who declare themselves militant is increasing; the influence their growing networks of terrorist cells exert on Islamic governments throughout the world has reached crisis levels. A great deal of violence and death looms ahead of the non-Moslem world; the attacks on Mumbai, India, the World Trade Center in New York, and the subway bombings in Spain and England are simply previews of things to come. In this ferocious Jihad, nuclear and biological weapons could ultimately come into play. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, the road before us will be long and dangerous; the United States and Europe must be resolute… and take courage. The survival of our civilization depends on it.
