Islam might seem weird or barbaric to Westerners, but the key is to understand Islam.

We might think they are against us, or want to propel us back to stone age. This is not true.

Muslims invented coffee, chess, parachute, armor, surgery, pay cheques, windmills and more (go here for more - http://english.pravda.ru/science/tech/85999-0/)

There is around 1.4 billion Muslims in the world now. Most of them are good people, it is the extremist and radicals that give them a bad name.

So don't judge Muslims by stereotypes or Western misjudgment, try to understand their ways.

A good place to start is here - Islam.com

Christianity is also grossly misunderstood by Westerners, generally speaking. There are a few who get it, though. Sometimes they are Christian, and sometimes they are not.

In every religion the ones who give it a bad name are the fanatics who take it to the extreme and unfortunately Islam fanatics use very barbaric ways such as beheadings and other things that just makes it incomprehensible to the average human being.

And yet if they truly understood their religion, they would know that that isn't what their religion would ask of them.  :(

Although, Islam is the most popular religion in the world, to most Americans their beliefs are "weird and barbaric". They focus all of there attention on beleifs and traditions. If more people understood it do you really think they would convert to Islam? Already over 15-25% of the world population is Islam but only 0.8% of the United States, why do you think that is?

Muslim believe in one God, believe in the Prophets, believe in Angels, believe in Holy Books, believe in the decrees and lastly believe in the Day of Judgment. Belief in one God as already mentioned is that they believe in the existence of only one God. Belief in the Prophets is meant for the al nabbi who are known to pass the messages of the God to people. Belief in Angels means that God created Angels who don't involve in sex, don't eat or drink and don't even feel any pain. Belief in Holy Books, Muslims believe in 5 holy books which they believe are the ones in which God has sent messages via his prophets and are inscribed into these holy books. Belief in the Day of Judgment is the one by which Muslims believe that a day will come when all the life on the planet earth will finish.

Religion brain washes you and if your parents believe it and there parents believe it then you will come to believe it.




As for the Muslim inventions:

Credit for the Parachute goes to Louis-Sébastien Lenormand who demonstrated the parachute principle in 1783. However, parachutes had been imagined and sketched by Leonardo Da Vinci (1452-1519) centuries earlier.

The history of the development of armor and arms begins with that of the human race. Humans throughout recorded history have used various types of materials to protect themselves from injury in combat and other dangerous situations.

The oldest surgery for which we have evidence is trepanation (also known as trepanning, trephination, trephining or burr hole), in which a hole is drilled or scraped into the skull, thus exposing the dura mater to treat health problems related to intracranial pressure and other diseases. Evidence has been found in prehistoric human remains from Neolithic times, in cave paintings, and the procedure continued in use well into recorded history (being described by ancient Greek writers such as Hippocrates among others).

I could be wrong, but it seems to me like the rift between Muslims and Westerners has its foundation in cultural differences rather than in religious differences. It seems evident to me that most people, regardless of culture, race, religion, etc. do not believe in killing each other for no reason, or stealing, or starting conflicts, etc. or doing anything that generally makes their lives harder- unless they are looking to acquire more power, more especially power over others.

What is incorrect, on the part of both parties of the conflict, is the perception of the other, and this is fueled by the manipulation perpetrated by the Media and by the consequences resulting from the actions of groups like OPEC, the WTO and IMF, which are hardly ever mentioned in the news (now why do you think that is, and what does it imply about who is really in charge?). Any position of authority, religious or governmental, comes with eventual corruption. There is no human being honorable enough to hold such great power without abusing it. They hide behind holy scriptures and ordinances, some of which were fabricated by certain corrupt individuals throughout the ages (and some of these individuals were even initiated into secret mystical teachings), official legal mumbo-jumbo, fancy hats, badges, and celebrity status. There is a silent, secret war taking place to conquer the minds of all humans, and most people are too afraid to even acknowledge that it is happening. I'm not a conspiracy theorist and I hate politics, but I have done a fair amount of research on this and it is, much to my disappointment, actually happening.

The only solution I can propose is open dialogue between the citizens of Muslim countries and Western countries, without government involvement and without mentioning politics. I believe that there are more similarities between Judaism, Christianity and Islam than there are differences. My basis for this belief is the fact that these are sister-religions, spawned from the same source. I do not believe that any is better or more valid than the others. Each has something valuable to offer and we should learn from all of them so that we may have access to the spiritual treasures which each holds.

Anyone, Muslim or not, would do well to look into orgonite and all that it can do. It is cheap, easy to make, and is effective in defeating the New World Order. It is spiritual technology, really, that we can use to take back the earth from the clutches of evil. It really does work from my experience, but please take a look for yourself. The best thing you can do to learn about it is make or buy a piece and make your own observations. This site www.humangiftingproject.com will tell you more about orgonite, and offer links where you can get even more info about orgonite, its history and where it came from, how to make it or where to buy it. There are many sites out there where you can find info on it. Just google the word "orgonite" and you'll find plenty of info. Orgonite emits subtle energy which most people cannot feel. If you are energy-sensitive, you will feel it though, and you will understand how it works and what it does.
