Editor’s
Note: This article is a “special
edition” of Lay Pulpit. Ordinarily, we would not be publishing
until next week; but in light of the recent terrorist events in Paris, we thought
it timely to say something – and to repeat, at least in part, a message that
we’ve said before. Our “regular”
readers will notice that much of this article is excerpted from a previous article (the repeated part is shown in green print). But, in light of what happened in
Paris, that same message needs to be repeated again – especially for any new
readers. Because of that, this
article is rather long. For that,
we beg the reader’s indulgence; but we think it essential that it all be said.
It has
been a little over a week since the horrific attack in Paris by “Moslem
extremists.” No doubt it has been
“condemned” not only by secular leaders and Christian leaders around the world,
but also by “moderate Islam” as well.
To this we must say “HORSE DUNG.” There is NO SUCH THING as “moderate Islam.” Islam, in and of itself, is RADICAL. It is a “religion” of HATE, and its goal is the forcible and VIOLENT overthrow of
Christianity. Period. There are those – including most who
condemned these “extremists” -- who will say that these ISIS operatives (or
whoever they are) are a “small minority,” and that most Moslems do not support
them. Again, “HORSE DUNG.” Yes, they
may be a small numerical minority, but they seem to have the
support – tacit or otherwise – of the majority
of their Moslem brethren. Surely,
in a world with literally billions of
Moslems, some can use their influence to curb
these extremists, but they won’t –
and haven’t. And, in a world of billions of Moslems,
why is it Christian Europe’s
“responsibility” to take in those Syrian “refugees”? Why not their Moslem brethren?
Islam not
radical? Islam not a religion of
hate? Islam a religion of peace? The Koran itself
says otherwise, as the following sampling of its “suras” (chapters) will attest:
2:191: And fight the infidels, wherever you find
them; and expel them from the place they have turned you out from. 2:193:
Fight them until idolatry comes to an end, and the law of Allah prevails.
4:24: Also forbidden are married women, unless they are
captives of war: such is the decree of Allah. (What they’re talking
about here is who a man can or cannot have sex with; so what they’re
doing is ratifying the rape of women captured in a jihad.) 4:24:
They give those of these women you have enjoyed the agreed dower. It
will not be faithful if you have agreed to something else by mutual consent,
after having settled the dowry. Allah is certainly all-knowing and all
wise. (What this verse is doing is ratifying prostitution; if
a man pays a woman a “dower” or dowry, i.e., a certain quantity of money, he
can have sex with her without obligation.) 4:34 (This is talking to a
man, one of whose many wives will not have sex with him willingly): As
for women who you feel are averse, talk to them persuasively, then leave them
alone in bed without molesting them, then beat them, then go to bed with them
when they are willing. (This ratifies beating your wife if she
won’t have sex with you.) 5:33: The punishment for those
who wage war against Allah and his prophet [Mohammed] is to kill or crucify
them, and have a hand on one side and a foot on the other cut off. 8:12:
And Allah said to the angel, ‘I am with you; go and strengthen the
faithful. I shall fill the hearts of the infidels with terror, so smite
them on their necks and incapacitate them. (i.e., a call to behead
all infidels) 9:29: Fight those among the People of the Book
[i.e., Christians] who do not believe in Allah nor the Last Day, nor forbid
what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden, nor embrace the religion of truth
[i.e., Islam], until they pay the jizya [tribute] with willing submission and
feel themselves subdued. 9:80: Whether you plead forgiveness for them or not, Allah
will not forgive them, even though you plead seventy times, for they
disbelieve in Allah and his apostle; and Allah does not show transgressors the
way. (A loving, forgiving God?) 13:42: Sure those who
have gone before them did deceive, but Allah is all deceiving, for he has knowledge
of what each does. (This is calling God a deceiver and liar, which,
of course, implies that Allah’s true identity is Satan.) 23:1:
The true believers will be successful who are humble in their service who
shun all frivolities, who strive for betterment, who guard their sex except
from their wives and their women slaves of old [This ratifies
concubines]. 52:24 (regarding man-boy sex): And young
boys, like pearls within their shells, will go around; and 56:17:
Boys of never-ending bloom [pubescence] will pass around them cups and
decanters; and then 76:19: And boys of everlasting
youth will go about attending them. Looking at them, you would think that
they were pearls dispersed. (This is an allusion to the Islamic
sponsorship of pedophilia, and of looking on young boys as sex
objects. Most boys in Islamic cultures do not escape childhood
without being anally and orally raped, according to speaker.) 55:4:
As for your women who have lost hope of menstruation and in case you have
doubts, the prescribed period of waiting for them is three months, as also for
those who are not menstruating yet. (What this is doing is ratifying the
violation of pre-pubescent girls, i.e., pre-puberty girls.)
Allah,
then, as is evident from those excerpts (which are just a sampling), is
a vengeful, deceiving “God” who justifies (and indeed prescribes)
the rape and beating of women, sex with minors, prostitution,
wanton slaughter (usually by beheading) of “infidels” (including women and
children), and even pedophilia. Is this the kind of God that IS
God? NO. The speaker in the video contends that “Allah” is
actually Satan; and she is probably right -- for NO
God would condone such things and still BE God.
Islam,
both in word and in practice, is EVIL. The modern,
media-orchestrated notion of Islam as “tolerant” is a total MYTH. Islam
never was tolerant – and never will be. The irony of
it all is that these media that portray the Moslems as “tolerant” are, by and
large, Zionist controlled – and the Zionists and Moslem Arabs are
portrayed as archenemies. But the truth is, this is only cosmetic:
they’re both “on the same team.” They’re both belligerently
vindictive; they’re both not about forgiveness, but about
“eye-for-an-eye” retaliation, retribution -- about vengeance;
and they’re both out to destroy Christianity, except that the Moslems do
it with “swords” (and very clumsily) -- while the Zionists do it with “cash
registers” and “Hollywood” (but much more subtly).
The
notion of Moslem “benevolence” is quickly dispelled when sees what they really
practice: women are genitally mutilated with the express purpose of maximizing
the man’s sexual pleasure -- and the woman’s pain and suffering.
A man can be unfaithful, can fornicate at will, can have limitless “wives,” and
can divorce a woman on any pretext – with total impunity. Yet when a
woman does the same, she is beheaded or stoned to death.
A man can wear as much (or as little) as he wants; but a woman, to be a “true”
Moslem, must be covered from head to toe -- with a mask over her
face. Young, pre-puberty Moslem girls are routinely “sold” to seedy,
middle-aged men as “wives” (that is, to be sex slaves for middle-aged pedophilic
perverts). Indeed, the selling of young girls as sex slaves is big
business throughout the Islamic world – an embarrassing, damning
reality.
Our
media have routinely claimed that in the past, the Moslems came as benevolent,
tolerant conquerors, and that Christian conquerors were, in contrast, butchers
-- when in fact the opposite was true. When Moslems
conquered Christian lands, they wantonly butchered the “infidels” (as
the Koran and “Allah” commanded); and the women were wantonly raped and/or sold
as slaves into harems – practices that routinely go on to this day: just
recently, reports of whole villages – including women and children --
being slaughtered by Islamic militants (usually by beheading) have been
confirmed by independent sources. And the selling of young girls as sex
slaves has already been noted -- a widely recognized (and accepted)
practice in Moslem countries throughout the world.
It is
interesting to note, too, what the Islamic notion of Heaven is: in the
Koran’s own words, it is a “garden of earthly delights” – a sensual Valhalla
where each man is attended to (and sexually satisfied) by “a
hundred virgins.” “Heaven,” then, is little more than an eternal sex
orgy, where men are in a never-ending state of hormonal ecstasy – while
women are servile non-entities, whose only function there is to provide
that ecstasy. Wow! Any woman who subscribes to that sort of nonsense must
be either an IDIOT or (literally) a damned fool -- and so
must any man: to believe that something as accidental as one’s gender
rewards the one with eternal bliss while condemning the other to nameless,
mindless servitude), is a notion that is utterly absurd
to any rational being.
It is
also interesting to note that in the aforementioned YouTube video about Islam, the speaker was a woman –
and probably not Catholic at that. (Actually, she appeared in two
videos: the first video dealt with her reply to comments made by U.S. Senator Lindsay
Graham (R, South Carolina) on a nationally televised show (Face the Nation),
where he proposed restricting Americans from burning the Koran (but said
nothing, of course, about Moslems burning our flag and our Bible).
Both videos are excellent, and the woman is very articulate – and brave.
To the tinhorn potentates of Traddieland (such as Daniel Dolan and Anthony
Cekada), she probably comes across as a “whining woman” – probably with a
“feminist agenda.” And, being the puritanical prudes that they (and their
cultlings) are, they probably “ding” her as well for her “language” (she calls
Allah a “sonofabitch” several times during the video, and she uses some
“anatomical” metaphors).
As we
stated in the original article from which the foregoing was taken
(the portion in green print), good men (i.e., priests) must take the
lead in effecting the final triumph of Christianity. But we also noted that, although Islam is evil, there are
many Moslems who are good, decent people who abhor what happened in Paris. However, that’s not enough. In
the end, they must REJECT Islam in toto because, as the Koran’s own
words proclaim, it prescribes things that are openly immoral and evil. It is a FALSE creed. The Moslems who lead “good, decent
lives” are doing so because they are practicing what Christianity teaches, not what Islam teaches. They
are, in practice, leading Christian
lives – so why not then take the next logical step, and become Christian?
Peace in
this world will not come about by us getting rid of “bad” Moslems, and finding
accommodation with “good” Moslems – because Islam itself is EVIL. How can a “religion” whose Koran says
what it does be anything but that? Moslems must become Christian. But so must “Christian Europe.” Europe, unfortunately, is only nominally Christian, but not Christian in fact. It was sadly ironic, after the Paris
attacks, how everyone was “showing their support for France”: the Brits even
sang the Marseillaise (France’s national anthem) – a Godless song that celebrated a
Godless, anti-Christian revolution.
Appealing
to “national pride,” or showing “international solidarity” isn’t going to stop any
evil, nor is crushing “extremist Islam” by military force going to do it. That will only “treat the symptom,” and
temporarily subdue a seething
resentment that will surely surface again (just as World War I’s Versailles Treaty subdued a resentment,
only to see it come back again – with terrible results). Permanent peace will only happen when the “cause” – not the symptom -- is treated, i.e.,
when Europe wakes up and realizes
that getting back to their Christian
roots – not “solidarity” -- is what really counts.
The
present course that Europe is on is SUICIDE: letting in millions of Moslem
“refugees,” when they KNOW
that many of them will inevitably be terrorists
– that this is a Trojan Horse that could
DESTROY Western Christian
civilization. It is an INSANE policy that the vast majority of
Europe’s people reject but their governments approve. There have been many reports –
especially on “social media” – of what the so-called “refugees” are really about (see attached video); but the mainstream media are
strangely SILENT. Why? Because, again, they are Zionist controlled. The Zionists do not WANT peace in the
Middle East. (They have demonstrated that time and again: every time there has been an Israeli-Arab "peace initiative," it has been the Israelis who have "torpedoed" it.)*
Moslems
need to understand this. They need
to realize that we, like they, are
just pawns in the Zionist chess game – and that both they and we are losers in
that game.** But what they must
also realize, in the end, is that their “religion” – Islam – is evil. They need to ask themselves this: How can a creed that calls
itself “benevolent” and “peaceful” not only condone
but prescribe
-- right there in writing in its
“holy book” -– the killing of its enemies, and the raping of their women? How can a deceitful and vengeful
God be a good God? How can a creed that warrants prostitution and pedophilia be the “true” religion? The answer, of course, is that
it cannot. Only Christianity
preaches a message of charity and forgiveness – of “doing unto others as you
would have them do unto you.” And
only Catholic Christianity gets that
message right.*** Again, today’s
Moslems must come to embrace the
Christian principles that many of them are now practicing.
Ultimately, they must reject Islam.
But given the
present “climate” – the Godless, amoral hedonism of the West, and the blind
fanaticism of the ISIS terrorists -- that’s not likely to happen any time soon
(nor is it realistic to expect that “moderate” Moslems will just “fold up their
tent” and become Christian overnight).****
And it will, we fear, take something much more cataclysmic than the
“Paris attacks” to effect that kind of change. The good news is
that it will happen, because Our Lord promised us that He will be with us “all days, even unto the consummation of
the world” and that He will “put enmities between thee [Satan] and the woman
[Mary], and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie
in wait for her heel.”
These indeed are consoling words, but just what exactly do they
mean? How will they “play out”? What we think (and hope) that they mean
is that Islam, as well as all other false creeds, will ultimately fall; and
Christ’s Church will triumph. As
things stand now, this is a hard scene to envisage. Will it come by degrees, or will it take a cataclysmic event
to put things to right? There are
many speculations and predictions on what will happen, and when. But whichever way it happens, all
pretty much agree that it is not
likely to happen painlessly.

* Of course, "Israel" came into being back in 1948 by dispossessing the Palestinians of their own land, and by doing so with our "blessing" -- and help. So, it's no wonder why they hate us -- but that's a subject for a whole other article.
** One thing for sure: we’ll never get the “straight scoop” from
the mainstream media -- just as we never got it from them about all the chaos
the “refugees” are creating (again, see video) – for reasons already noted. It is entirely possible, for instance, that these “ISIS”
people are funded (and orchestrated) by Zionist agents. That might sound absurd; but remember,
they control the mainstream media -- and where is all our news coverage of the
recent events in Paris coming from?
Alternately, ISIS might be funded by wealthy Moslems. The problem
is, we just don’t know, because what we “hear,” again, goes through the
mainstream media “filter.” We don’t have a crystal ball, so we can only
speculate. But one thing we can
ask ourselves is this: who would benefit from us and the Moslems going
head-to-head in combat? (Hint: it
won’t be either of us.) So, if the
rest of the Moslem world is tacitly supporting ISIS,
they would do well to reconsider: such a policy is not in their best interest –
short-term or long-term.
*** Protestantism, for a multitude of reasons, doesn’t “get it
right.” For one thing, it preaches
“fides sola”: that faith alone is all that is required for
salvation – that, regardless of one’s deeds (or misdeeds), he is “saved” as
long as he “accepts Christ.” It’s
kind of odd, isn’t it: Islam prescribes that one must rape, pillage, steal,
lie, and murder in order to be “saved,” while the Protestantism preaches that
it isn’t necessary to do anything at all
to be saved – except to “accept Jesus.” So, in the one case, one is saved, so to speak, by “overdoing
it,” and in the other by “under-doing it.” It is only Catholicism
that strikes the right balance: that we must be responsible for our actions
(and that those actions must be just and charitable), and that it takes both faith and good works to gain salvation.
Catholicism offers the only rational alternative for salvation. The other two, Protestantism and Islam,
will -- if “put under a microscope” -- be found to be philosophically, logically,
and morally absurd.
**** We wonder, too, just how
“moderate” the “moderate Moslems” really are. As we stated in this article’s opening remarks, there seems
to be a general apathy on their part,
when they see all this terrorist activity going on, to do much about it. While they publicly deplore it, are they secretly applauding or encouraging it? One
thing for sure: the rest of the Moslem world (the Saudis, for instance) doesn’t
seem to be going out of its way to stop
this terrorism (nor, as we also noted before, are they volunteering to take in
any of their Moslem brethren as “refugees”). Do they not have any influence
where any of this is concerned?
What are their real intentions? Again, we just don’t know.
Another thing: “moderate” Moslems
say that these terrorists “don’t represent Islam.” They say that it a “peace-loving religion.” That isn’t quite true: in many Moslem
countries, non-Moslems are persecuted,
and, in many cases, not allowed to practice their religion at all – in Saudi Arabia, for example. Non-Moslem worship is forbidden there; and one cannot wear (or
even bring in) a religious object to that country -- yet they demand “freedom
of worship” when they enter Western countries. (Ironically, under Saddam Hussein in Iraq, Christians were entirely free to worship, as they are under Assad in Syria. Kind of makes one wonder why we toppled
the one, and are trying to do the same to the other, doesn’t it?)
Another thing: it is not only
ISIS or Al Qaida who are
troublemakers. In many countries
where Moslems are in a pluralistic society, they engage in terrorist activity –
in several African countries and in the Philippines, for instance. In some cases, they even cause problems
for other countries (the Pakistani
terrorist activity in India, for instance). It is never a case of Christians
causing trouble in Moslem countries; it’s always the other way around. Wherever Islam is, it is usually intolerant and belligerent. They want
“peaceful coexistence” and “tolerance” from others; but in many “moderate”
Moslem countries, they don’t reciprocate.
Lastly, we must note that, in the
main, Moslems aren’t even tolerant within their own circle. Theirs is a double standard world, where men can do anything they want:
fornicate, be unfaithful to their wives, even rape and murder -- with
complete impunity -- while women get stoned
to death for doing the same. In
the Koran’s own written word, Islam is not moderate at all; and theologically
and morally, its words just don’t
“add up.” Granted, there are many
Moslems who do not condone (or practice) such “double-standard” precepts. Many of them lead decent, perhaps even exemplary, lives; but they are doing so
because they are practicing what Christianity
– not Islam – teaches.
