The Consequences of Islam's False Beliefs Regarding Original Sin
"Dr. Muzammil Siddiqi of the ISNA [Islamic Society of North America] said: 'Homosexuality is a moral disorder. It is a moral disease, a sin and corruption... No person is born homosexual, just like no one is born a thief, a liar or murderer. People acquire these evil habits due to a lack of proper guidance and education.'"
Dr.Siddiqi illustrates Islam's belief about original sin. People aren't born bad. They end up that way due to lack of guidance.
Well, this is blatantly false. Why would people end up bad if they are born good? Lack of guidance and education? Well, the biblical message is that the human heart is the source of our bad acts.
Since Muslims believe that proper guidance is needed, they believe society needs a Muslim government to turn out alright. They also believe that an obedient Muslim army cannot be defeated. Well, Islam since 1492 hasn't been all-conquering. Hence, they must have some internal problems?
Where do many Muslims believe this bad influence comes from today? The West. Eliminate the West, Islam gets back on track with "proper" guidance.
I have an idea about how to actually win the war on terrorism long-term. Send missionaries. But don't fool yourselves about compromise or making them like us. They don't like you and they hate your way of life. They don't want to tolerate you. They won't stop until your "bad influence" is eradicated. Hollywood, here they come.
