Every imperialism needs a justifying philosophy -José Vasconcelos
I think this is the raw truth but I want to be very clear- this is about Islam but what this book is talking about is not just about Islam- this book exposed monotheism for what it really is.
Monotheism is about control.
^the history of monotheism, in a nut shell
it sounds beautiful on paper but its history is one of the bloodshed
what has it served as? As a justifying ideology for colonialism and genocide!
An ideology for colonizers- for invaders.
here is the book I am talking about- but I want to be very clear- I do not mean this as an attack on Islam. No- I mean this as an attack on monotheism.

I don't care if this entire forum attacks me and if every person on this forum turns against me. I am tired of holding my tongue.
The Christians and the Muslims are like the Democrats and the Republicans- two parties that are supposedly different but really are pretty much the exact same. Two groups who are still fighting crusades hundreds of years later- over whether Jesus was a prophet or the son of God. What difference does it make?! How does it effect my every day, day-to-day decision-making whether he was the son of God or a prophet? I frankly don't care! And honestly I think he was neither- I think he was probably just a Jewish preacher- if he existed. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if Christianity was just invented by some clever people as some form of mind control. Or did it start off as sincere and then was hijacked into being mind control?
you don't have to be a PHD in History to know about Christianity and its evil history. That other user was right to make a thread about how Christianity murdered Greeks and destroyed Greek culture- that is the general pattern of how Christianity was spread.
And Islam is pretty much the same religion. I seriously doubt it was spread through lecturers and pamphlets.
Anyways, please examine the book I have provided a link to. And please keep in mind it exposes not merely Islam but monotheism in general- the essence of its message applies to Christianity as well.
And having said all this, I want to say that the truth lies in the unification of opposites.
Let's not be reductionist- yes monotheism is a veiled justification for imperialism but it's not just that.
The coin has two sides. Islam is a path to God and Christianity is a path to God.
We can't run around and insult Christians and Muslims and belittle them and try to force our own thinking on them. These religions can bring people closer to God. But the secret is that they bring people closer to God simply through bringing people closer to their true inner nature
The value of these religions- which form part of the rich spiritual heritage of mankind- is not in their debates over whether Jesus was a prophet or son of God or how many angels can desd on the head of a needle- their value is that they teach spirituality, free us from materialism, and bring us in like with our own, innate human decency. And because this decency is innate- the moral teachings of these religions are useful as a map- but the map is not the path itself. There comes times when you must walk by faith, by your own intuitive knowing and not by sight- to leave the map behind.
The great spiritual teachers of history were not obsessing over the minute grammatical details of previous scriptures- they studied scriptures but their greatness came from their own spirit and the courage to follow their own unique path and vision- they were not merely regurgitating the fossilized creativity of the past.
In short, I have written a post almost seemingly tailor-made to be capable of offending billions of people. Perhaps I can unite Muslims and Christians in thinking I am awful.
But... please read the book I posted the link to. Some of what I've said has tended towards the speculative but even if I offend pretty much everyone snd manage to succeessfully alienate myself from everyone- I at least in part have the force of truth on my side and that is enough to satisfy me. And the book I have posted the link to- that book certainly has the truth on its side. You read it and s lightbulb turns on and you know he's telling the truth.
