The Violence of Islam

Islam is a violent religion. I know that may contrary to what you’ve heard. But history demonstrates Islam is a violent, vile religion; it’s not a religion of peace. Far from it. Islam has carried out atrocities in the name of their God, Allah, for fourteen hundred years. Let that sink in! Fourteen hundred years is a really long time. During that time, much of Christendom in the Middle East was decimated. Egypt was a Christian nation, so was Iran, and so was Turkey. In fact, that region was established as Christian going as far back as the Apostles, including the Apostle Paul. That is, until Islam arrived in 600 A.D. Within 100 years, through violence, that changed. Forced conversions, horrific executions, brutal torture, gang rapes, theft, and pillaging — all came from Islam. Islamic violence is not new; it’s older than our nation, was met by the founders of our nation, and pushed back. 

Why is it important for us to understand that Islamic militants are nothing new? Because the lie being sold is Islamic radicalism is just a few extremists who are out of the fringe of Islam. Truth is, those extremists are core members in Islam. And others within Islam will defend them. That’s right! There’s a cohesion among Muslims we must be aware of. They have no issue lying to achieve their agenda. They are willing to bide their time to gain control. And slowly and steadily, they seek control. That is…until. Until when? Until they feel they have enough power to take over and enforce their rule, which means, forced conversions, horrific executions, brutal torture, gang rapes, theft, and pillaging. That’s Islam!

 “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it"—George Santayana

Why do we need to understand the past violence of Islam? Because its past violence reveals its future potential for violence in our midst. As it’s been said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it". In this case, our history has been so conflated that we don’t even know what our history is. So many lies told and false narratives have been created that it has become nearly impossible to discern what is true. The ever changing narrative of Israel’s history is a prime example. 

The land of Israel was the land of Israel prior to the conquest of Israel by the Roman Empire. Then, it became part of the Turkish empire after Islam had subjugated what was formerly predominantly Christian nations (Islam began in 600 A.D.). Israel changed hands numerous times. During that time period, Palestine didn’t exist and there were never a “Palestinian People”. The lie of a “Palestinian People” was created whole cloth out of thin air. But today, it’s widely believed Palestine has always existed. Talk about gullible. That’s who we have become. 

Recently, I was listening to a college professor at a major secular university and he was confronting the lies being told among his students about Israel and the narratives being created about what happened on October 7, 2023. As he shared what he shared, which by the way was being shared by a Jewish Rabbi, he talked about Islam’s supposed founder, Muhammad, and he said after it, “peace be upon him”. And I thought to myself, how strange to say something like that while he saying what he was saying. Then, I realized why he said what he said — fear of offending believers in Islam. And that begs the question: Why does that fear exist? The answer is simple — the violence of those believe in Islam. 

Yes, the violence done by believers in Islam has caused so many to be afraid of what might take place if a random stranger who believes in Islam hears what they say and be offended. We need to hear and understand this point — that’s terrorism. Terrorism exists predominantly due to believers in Islam; they are behind it. Yes, Jihad has been being waged for nearly fourteen hundred years. Let that sink in. It’s not a twentieth century creation. No! It goes much farther back. The nation of Israel isn’t responsible for terrorism. Neither is the United States. Islam’s believers are the root of terrorism because the root of Islam is violence.

Islam isn’t only a religion; it’s also a political movement and a military movement. Islam fosters violence. It always has and it always will. Why? It’s part of Islam’s core teachings. And those who believe in Islam’s tenets will always fuel the fire of violence demanded by the false god of Islam, Allah, and the blood required to appease their deity. The god of Islam isn’t the Jewish God or the Christian God. No! It’s a demon disguised as God. And that demon demands blood — the bloodshed caused through the violence of its followers. 

Why do I share this post? In hopes that we will understand what we are facing. Yes, we must share the love of Christ with those who believe in Islam. But we mustn’t allow them to take over our nation — America. Ever! For the violence that Islam creates will eventually lead to war in our own nation. Those who believe in Islam will likely call it a holy war. War in the name of Islam is anything but holy. It’s evil, vile, and wicked. That’s the root of Islam and its teachings — violence, brutality, torture, rape, molestation, murder, terror, and other similar evils. That’s Islam’s history. That’s Islam’s fruit. That’s Islam’s root — violence.

Let us pray!
