Iran rebellion

Caveat: the earlier part of the book will make you wonder why I wish to depress you, but it is ultimately a very uplifting, hopeful book with almost a Zen feeling about it.

That makes me want to read it even more!

Right. I like depressing books.

The Catholic Church has a sullied past that I suspect could rival Islam. Fortunately much of it has tamed down since the inquisition and the bloodletting and possibly genocide in South America in the quest for gold and plunder. Some of their sorted abuses continue.

Catholics are not out to kill us, commit hijackings, or were the cause of 9/11. Period.

I grew up 30 minutes from Dearborn, MI. Nuff said.

We’re not talking about historical stuff. Islam wants the west dead. I am happy to return the favor.

Child rape, and the coverup of such things, are more on-brand for Catholics, true.

Most of the bad stuff other than child abuse and coverups is in the past for the Catholic Church. I have personal acquaintances who have been affected by that. Us common European protestants just have the decimation of the Native American populations on our collective conscious, and Methodist Minister like Col. John Chivington. At least they didn't make the street run red with blood.

It does seem like the Islamic nations have not made much progress in the reform of Jihad and religion inspired killings.

As was I as a child. Likely why I did not become a Jesuit.

Don’t forget the grooming gangs in the UK who are Muslims. True, they’re not diddling little boys like the Catholics, but they are going after under age girls.

Islam is backwards as f*ck. We’ll throw that Ilhan Omar in there, too. I don’t like Trump, but I’m all for kicking Muslims out.

And as always, it is the power structure that is protecting them is the worst thing.

Predators are gonna exploit, rapists are gonna rape, Criminals are gonna criminal.

But when the Catholic Church hierarchy passes on badnick priests from parish to parish as it has been proven many times, when the U .K cops know about the rape gangs but aren’t going to risk bad PR by even investigating, that’s when things are bad.

You can expect much more of the same in coming decades in the U.K. Tragic.

Religion is a cancer on the world, with Islam being one of the worst.

No, it really isn’t.
