A Critical Analysis of 'Real Islam'. Its People ... - Bukti dan Saksi

natural parental instincts become more active. A person who has lost the ability to feel empathy feels
nothing at the sight and sound of fellow beings in anguish, and those who take pleasure at the suffering of
others have deteriorated further into depravity and are said to suffer a dangerous form of mental and/or
emotional illness (narcissism is a dangerous personality disorder characterized by the lack of empathy
and self-deceit, which malady most of the worst despots in history have suffered from).
The Over-riding Conscience factor:
Other innate internal tendencies are also programmed in the human spirit, including longing for
freedom, and our conscience. Conscience is defined as that internal moral sense which enables us to
differentiate between right and wrong, and which lights the way for moral conduct. It is the gut feeling of
rightness or wrongness, which grips ones heart as we act on the varied daily impulses that drive us.
Normal empathy certainly plays a part in this internal compass, but conscience is cognitively and
spiritually more significant than simple empathy. All these codes are ingrained in our minds and hearts
and serve us individually and as a species, for without subjecting behavior to a common standard of vice
and virtue, social evolution is not possible. This is the reason that even primitive societies have always
had words denoting a differentiation between good and bad. Although societies do not all practiced
universal standards of vice and virtue, yet it is well known that almost all communities have always had
codes to acknowledge what was good and bad. Codes, for example, respecting others and their property,
mutual fidelity, speaking the truth, keeping promises, respecting family ties, helping the poor, weak, and
handicapped. These codes come into being in response to our innate conscience, and are generally
considered signs of good morality. Since every one desires security of person and property, liberty to
worship, fair trial, freedom of speech etc., these facts, over a period of time, rose to become what is called
Human Rights. He who violates these rights is considered by developed nations to be an enemy of
humankind.
The Islamic Superiority factor:
For a person to abandon internal standards guiding proper behavior towards others, forces or factors
must first be applied to break down those natural internal clocks. There are many ways this can be
accomplished in individuals and societies, and proven methodologies continue to be applied today with
predictable results, as has indeed been the case with every political, national, or religious sect, which has
ever behaved badly toward non-members or the non-privileged (including Islam). Islamic fundamentals
preach innate superiority of Muslims over non-Muslims, social segregation, hatred of unbelievers, and
elimination of dissenters through dominance, death and destruction. We turn to more quotes from the
Qur’an to verify that conclusion:
• Do not let non-Muslims enter mosques. They will go to hell. -Repentance: 17
• ye who believe! The non-Muslims are unclean. So let them not come near the Inviolable Place of
Worship. -Repentance: 28
• ye who believe! Murder those of the disbelievers ...and let them find harshness in you. -
Repentance: 123
• Humiliate the non-Muslims. -Repentance: 29
• Certainly, God is an enemy to the unbelievers. -The Cow: 90
• God has cursed the unbelievers, and prepared for them a blazing hell. -The Confederates: 60
• Let not the believers take the unbelievers for friends.... whoso does that belongs not to God. -The
House of Imram: 60
• Moslems are hard against the unbelievers, merciful to one another. -Victory: 25
• Muhammad has been sent by God with the religion of Truth, that He may cause it to prevail over
all religions. -Private Apartments: 28
• Muslims are the best of all nations. -House of Imram: 110
A Muslim naturally believes in all such Qur’anic verses, pounded into his mind and spirit from
childhood, which then warps his social outlook as he quickly becomes a narrow-minded sectarian. This
