A glimpse into the future of the West. This is where the Left’s “hate speech” rhetoric is tending. We are very close to this now, far closer than most people realize, as critics of jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women and others are now routinely excoriated, vilified, demonized, deplatformed, and shunned by all decent people. What is the next step? This. Rasmus Paludan was just banned from entering Sweden for desecrating the Qur’an. What will the situation be in five years? Ten? There are already calls to outlaw Qur’an desecration in Sweden. What is to prevent this from eventually being implemented, given the rapid growth and aggressiveness of the Muslim community in Sweden, and the willful ignorance and supine stance of Swedish authorities? Police were just hunting for Danes who burned Qur’an in a Swedish no-go zone with a large Muslim population. How long until desecrating a Qur’an in Sweden gets you life in prison?
And Sweden is not alone. Most Western countries are following the same trajectory.
“Man gets life for desecrating Holy Quran,” Dawn, September 17, 2020:
HARIPUR: An additional sessions judge on Wednesday sentenced a man to life over desecration of the Holy Quran.
According to the prosecution record, the Sera-i-Saleh police had arrested Ch Mohammad Ayaz, a resident of Baldhair village, on the complaint of his wife on Sept 13, 2015.
The complainant had told the police that she was living in a rented house with her husband and three children. OnSept [sic] 13, she said after heated arguments with her over some family matter, he, in a fit of anger, took out a copy of the Holy Quran from the cupboard and defiled it….

Pakistan: Man gets life in prison for desecrating Qur’an
……………
Sounds more like a pissed-off wife than something someone named Mohammad would do.
But just an accusation is usually enough in Dar-al-Islam.
God, I hate Islam.
Bob Foy says
100% Agree. WAKE UP World. Islam is NOT a religion. It is a theocracy. Also, the Muslim Brotherhood must be designated as a Terrorist Organization in the USA. The evidence is already in and adjudicated in a previous trial. Even some Arab countries have designated them as a Terrorist Organization. Call and motivate and re-motivate your congress people with http://www.ContactingCongress.org God Bless America!

Bob, a theocracy is a polity that imposes the law of a religion–in this case, Islam in Pakistan. Islam is indeed a religion; it is just an *evil* religion.
I very much agree that the Muslim Brotherhood should be designated a terror group here.
mortimer says
Seconding GI. Islam is a religious polity or a political religion. The mosque and state are one and the same in Islam … a branch of one another. There is no separation or wall between them as in the American system.
The Muslim Brotherhood modelled itself after the Italian Fascist Party and the German National Socialist Workers’ Party of Adolf Hitler.
It is fair to say the MB is the Nazi Party of Egypt.

I second your seconding of gravenimage, mortimer.
Michael Copeland says
Islam is government.

mortimer says
Reply to MC: Islam is called a ‘deen’ and also a ‘dawla’… an Arabic word meaning ‘governance’. ‘Dawla’ is a state or ruling dynastic family. The constitution of Islam comes from religious Sharia law manuals made by religious scholars.
It is overly simplistic to say Islam is one or the other.
Islam is at once a religion, a state and a religious society—”deen wa dawla”.
Islam is the duck-billed platypus of religions. Islamic political power emerges from religious Sharia law.
Muslim leaders manipulate everyone with the ambiguity between Islamic religion and Islamic politics which are actually inseparable in Islam.
Michael Copeland says
Thanks, mortimer.
From the article “Islam is Government”:
“Islam, the system, has a prayer component which makes it also a religion, and the two are inseparably conjoined.”
The emphasis of the article is that Islam is not restricted to worship, as so many politicians, lawyers, judges, and clergy assume, without checking.

There should really be a “Burn your Quran” day! I know, bibliophiles are against burning any book, but they should make an exception for the Unholy Quran.

I would like to be in that. How could it be organised?
Rufolino says
As to Sweden, Aristotle’s words are perfectly apposite at the present time:
“Tolerance and apathy are the last two virtues of a dying culture.”
These words will very soon be true (if they are not true already), of Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and (depending on the next General Election) Italy.
W.Europe is a dying culture, and there are many in the USA who would like their country to perish too.
rubiconcrest says
There is good reason to doubt that Aristotle ever wrote those words which does not make them any less true.

The Koran defiles everyone who believes it is of divine origin. Only amoral humans could compose such a violent and vicious text.
Danilo dos Santos Fonseca says
Everyone respect the bible, the torah between anothers holy books why not respect the quran? They has that to respect or face consequences Allah it’s mercy and clemment, but we have respect the powerful of judge day Allah the almighty God.

Where to start? Islam does *not* respect the Torah and Gospel, and claims that things like the Golden Rule are “corruption” by Jews and Christians. Islam, in fact, does not respect *any* non-Muslims.
Then, no one should be imprisoned for life–or murdered, as is often the case in Dar-al-Islam–for questioning *any* ideas. Yet this is what Shari’ah calls for re Islam. How is this injustice “mercy”? Of course, it *is not*.
Finally, the vicious Qur’an and other “holy” texts of Islam teach pedophilia, crushing of freedom, slavery, robbery, rape, and mass slaughter. Who has the right to demand that I or anyone else respect this vile book–and threatens me if I do not? Free people do not accept this barbarism.

“Why not respect the quran?”
The koran CURSES Christians for believing in Jesus Christ {koran 9:30} curses the Jews for being Jews{koran 2:65} has an apartheid system that refers to ALL non-muslims as ‘the WORST of created beings” { koran 98:6}
‘allah’ MISSED…the 2 chief commandments{law #1 Deut 6:4-9,law #2 Lev19:18{law#2 is impossible to be satisfied in islam due to koran 98:6 and koran 2:65}},the Golden Rule{=”the MEANING of the law of Moses and the teachings of all the prophets” Matthew 7 v 12},the concept of people being made in the spiritual image of God{Genesis 1:27} and thus EQUAL ..and gives full permission to violate the Exodus 20 Decalogue{thus defeating the purpose of the Law being given in the first place!}
The koran is Theologically wrong{allah mistakenly has MARY in the Christian Trinity koran 5:116 and allah completely MISSED the wisdom source behind the Bible},Historically wrong{muhammed visiting a mosque that was not in existence in muhammed’s time koran 17:1,Jesus having the Gospel koran 5:46}which is ridiculous ..and Scientifically wrong.
islam has a Doctrine of hatred{al walaa wal baraa} and an apartheid system that discriminates against non-muslims{kuffar=Jews and Christians,mushrikun=polytheists,murtadeen= apostates} and a death penalty for Apostasy.
The quran is not worth the paper it is written on.In fact by allah’s OWN criterion of koran 4:82,the errors in the quran shows it to be from ‘other than allah’ which means it is false and bogus.
islamic ‘scholars’ hide these things and dawah teams are liars anyway.
Given this available information anyone who converts to islam is a fool!
allah “the BEST of deceivers”{koran 3:54} whose greatest enemy is a MAN called “the king of kings”{and not shaitan as muslims think}{Sahih Muslim vol 5 hadith #’5611}is not the Biblical God.
Wellington says
The bitter irony here is that Islam itself is a desecration of what a religion should be.

Roger Russin says
The Torah and the rest of the OT and New Testament have been viciously attacked and ridiculed and examined by atheists and proven to be reliable account of history. Why should the Quran be protected from such cross-examination. When examined truth will out, it will be self-authenticating. When you don’t have the truth, then those possessing whatever it is are afraid to examine it, this is head in sand approach to life and liberty. When a person is sick they go to the doctor, and the doctor says tell me the history of your problem. The patient says it all started back when. So, we should say “why do you kill people?” and the answer is “well, back the day, our god said kill people, so we kill people.” And is this book of yours reliable and stands up to archaeological examination? Where are are the ancient ruins in Mecca? Why were the early manuscripts burned? What evidence was in them? Why are all of the current manuscripts in museums altered to agree the 1924 official version Quran? Is is possible that this was done to make the Quran appear that it had never been changed when in fact it had been changed? Why did the Quran leave out the signature accomplishment of prophet Moses, namely, the Quran says nothing of the 10 commandments, and the one thou shall not kill or murder. How convenient.
Blasphemy Laws are a huge problem. We need to highlight this issue and keep in the public eye and support those opposing blasphemy laws in those nations that currently have them and to roll it back in the West. Once the Muslims get the upper-hand, we lose until divine intervention.
Blasphemy Laws – Pakistani President Khan > Organization of Islamic Cooperation -> United Nations -> European Union -> European Nations -> United States -> Global Caliphate
77 countries have blasphemy laws, 7 with punishments by death, and 22 countries have apostasy laws (so Islam doesn’t collapse under the weight of truth).

We need a campaign in the US to educate the Islamofascist Democrats, because some day they will win again. Without the ability to criticize Islam, we have no counter voice to the powers that be. We will be passing out leaflets in the dark. Let’s gear up now. We need a standard-bearer.
FYI says
Do you know where muslims have to go to find a formal listing of those essential ten commandments{shared by Jews and Christians}?
{They are not formally listed in the koran:how convenient for islam!}
The Bible.
allah even tells muhammed to consult those who know the ‘scripture that was before thee'{=The Bible}in {koran 10:94} and even confirms the authenticity of the Torah and Gospel{koran 3:3}
The 2 chief Commandments{Law #1 Deut 6:4-9,Law#2 Lev 19:17-18} and the Golden Rule{which is defined as the MEANING of the ‘law of Moses and the teachings of all the prophets’Matthew 7 v12}and the Exodus 20 Decalogue are all formally mentioned in the Bible.
They constitute the Laws YHWH/God gave to Moses,laws Jesus Christ confirms as essential to understanding YHWH/God{see Matthew 22:37-40}
Yet it seems allah {‘the BEST of deceivers’ koran 3;54}’forgot’ them in his koran.
The concept of people being made in the Spiritual Image of God{Genesis 1:27}?
allah missed that too;so all people are NOT equal to allah as muslims are superior {koran 3:110} and non-muslims are inferior{koran 98:6}in a koranic Apartheid system.
It is not just what is in the koran:it is what is MISSING from the koran.
{That is..the 2 chief laws,a listing of the Decalogue,any understanding of the role of the Jews,the Golden Rule,the truth about Jesus Christ,the Holy Spirit:these are all missing from{ or denied in} the koran}
FYI says
BTW i am quite familiar with attacking and ridiculing the Bible:once upon a time I was an ardent atheist so i would have done it myself!
The arguments atheists use and all the tricks they use to attack the Bible..i used myself.
I was interested in the Golden Rule.Any reasonable atheist{as opposed to an unreasonable militant atheist}would surely agree that the Golden rule is a pretty good rule.
On reading the Bible myself i was really impressed to discover the Golden rule being defined as ‘the MEANING of the Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets”
{Matthew 7 v12}
And then I read the koran :and it was obvious the koran was false because it did not conform to the Laws given to Moses{although it pretends it does}

Apparently the ultra-liberal governments of Western European nations can’t be voted out of office… Or the people living in these countries don’t have a choice anymore… The US is heading this way too, so we shouldn’t congratulate ourselves too much considering the direction the Democratic Party is headed.
