A God with no compassion, a reward full of lust

Submitted by A very concerned reader, Feb 22, 2021 at 22:48

Dear M Tovey,

This from your comment:

"and a deity that does not show compassion for those who are forced to submit without knowing true love"

And this:

"Love is not represented in lust; lust in prideful flesh is a distraction and delusion against true service to the True Deity".

I just can say Amen to this. Because it's exactly my summary of Islam as a religion. No teaching about the pure essence of love, an empty religion in regards true values, and a God without compassion who, on top of it, rewards His followers with lusty things in the afterlife. Oh, and do not forget that those believers have to be men... It's so sad.
