Islamic Ethics Are A Failed Paradigm

Reader comment on item: 50 Years of Syrian Misery

Submitted by Dave (United States), Mar 9, 2013 at 21:40

Every Islamic country is either sunk in chaos or autocracy. The cause is what passes for Islamic morality: A crude concoction of denunciations of "infidels", inhuman laws and warlike calls for world domination. Consequently, either a strongman unites, or factions claiming sacred legitimacy slug it out endlessly. There's no "love thy neighbor" in Islam, no reverrent concept of humanity, no Genesis 1:26,7 about Man created in God's image.

Have you ever wondered why most of the major religions preach universal brotherhood? Look at the Islamic countries and you'll see why.
