I Have Legitimate Concerns About Islam And That's Not Bigotry

First things first, I don't like Islam. I am against it because it divides the world into believers and infidels, and orders infidels to be killed. So when a state or armed organisation places Islam as its guiding light, those who do not agree with it put their lives at risk. This attitude has only got a name, and it is totalitarism.

On the other hand, I cannot help observing that in certain points Islam strongly clashes with capitalist and liberal democracy, and this clashes go much further than Islamic views on homosexuality. Islam rejects usury as the worst of sins. Muslims have a much stronger sense of community than the western world.

Islam and capitalism cannot be friends. The establishment does not support Islam, it is using it to keep western population divided and fearful. Islam is a virus that has been injected in the body of our societies. We have to fight it or we will die. But if we fight the virus and we get new injections all the time, we will die anyway. It is a mistake to just fight Islam. The biggest fight must be against those bringing it to the west.

You're right. You have concerns. You are right to be concerned. But I'm sure I'm missing something here.

Most of the Muslim people I know are just families looking to live in a place that is safer than where they ran from. Yes. They still practice their religion. That is a guaranteed right in our part of the world.

Once you decide that the families must be fought it becomes bigotry.

I am not talking about the families. This massive influx of immigrants coming in the last two years to Europe is not spontaneous.NGOs are bringing them here, and someone is funding them. Someone is pulling the strings to start a conflict
