It has been quite some time now since i have wrote something in this blog, and to be honest i didn't think that i would have the heart or the energy to start tackling another one of Islamic nonsense that we're being fed every day from the cradle to the grave. However, the last comment that some guy had made on one of my posts under the title "Islamic Miracles in Nature"; It was just the right nudge I needed to start writing again. So in this post I'll be talking about "Why Atheists focus their hate on Islam" as this was the main theme of the comment that the guy made before he wished that his God would take me to hell with all the disbelievers.
Any way, the focused hate on Islam is not a virtue that only Atheists have, I would say this without having to look at any statistics or having to collect any anthropological demographics I would confidently assume that not just Atheists hate Islam, 99% of non Muslims share the same hate whether its direct or indirect hatred, the hate is there.
Now after reading up to here and your thinking to your self "but i have a Muslim friend and he seems pretty cool, so therefor you are wrong about Muslims". Then I should tell you that you're wrong, having Muslim "cool" friends doesn't buy any redemption for Islam. What I'm trying to say here is that the only reasonable justification that your Muslim friend is nice to you; is because he's acting according to what I would describe as "Moral Evolution". A modern person who is Muslim or a Christian or from any of the Biblical religions are classified in to 3 categories the first category is the aggressive (extreme) second is mild, and the third category is passive (which is more like an agnostic disposition, where a passive would say "maybe shit happens maybe it doesn't but just to be on the safe side, I'll keep holding on to my faith")
Those three categories are based on how it's corespondents will follow their scripture, so if we take the aggressive category for an instance, Muslims who fall under that category follow every word of the scripture (The Holly Quran) and they are willing to go the distance to obey every word they read, like bombing a building or a plane, or killing non-believers, or caricaturists illustrating sarcastic depictions of Muhammad or God for that matter. I'm not saying or implying that an aggressive Muslim is unable to tell the difference between good and evil. What Im saying is that an aggressive Muslim is too devout and obedient to scripture to the extent that when he is confronted with the choice of choosing between good or evil, their choice is purely based on what they read from scripture, therefor their personal decisions and opinions are irrelevant, If the scripture tells them to do something evil, they would know right away that it is evil and they shouldn't do it, but they would come to a realization that their opinions have no value next to God's grand plan. Not to mention that outside motivation that people like those receive from figures of authority in their community, so when in doubt regarding making a choice between good and evil, they will find their community making that choice for them according to scripture as well. This is why you would find most of the aggressive Muslims living in Islamic countries such as Saudi Arabia, or Iran or Afghanistan, the environment provided in those countries grants a fertile soil to grow aggressiveness and ideological extremism.
The second category which is the mild one, people who fall under that category reside in countries that house a more tolerant environment, where people's opinions are not constantly observed under a microscope which allows room to breath and enables a person to make some of his/her own decisions. A Mild Muslim wouldn't necessarily blow him self up to satisfy his God, but when they feel they are threatened by another religion or secularism they will go out in protest, and maybe just maybe one or two of them could do something stupid like throwing stones at an Israeli embassy to express their hatred and anger.
Third category for the passive Muslims are for the Muslims who mainly reside in developed countries that allow freedom of speech and all other kinds of freedoms such as the United States, Scandinavian Countries or Western Europe in general. Most passive Muslims are leaning towards agnosticism and are apologists for what they hear about what aggressive Muslims do in their free countries. and they always have the time to come up with justifications to validate their religion, most of those Muslims are people who haven't even the slightest clue about their religion, because they tend to get confused between the sense of morality that they picked up and have grown under in developed countries. So what they do is they return to scripture and start cherry picking things that they find valid according to what they've learned from their free western culture, and they impose those ideas on us and present them as Islamic teachings.
Now back to our main topic, and while keeping the above in mind, I have to stress out one last point regarding hate speeches, as an ex-Muslim and as an Atheist still hiding in the closet, I've heared and seen more than my fair share of hate speeches by Muslim clerics, Imams, scholars, all directed towards other religions and towards non-believers. The hatred speeches theme has been going on since the Islam started, It has been washing people's minds and making people live under the illusion that all the world is conspiring and plotting for their destruction, I find that a normal thing to do, in order for a religion to sustain it self it needs man power and it needs more will power and more and more financial power, the easiest way to gain those three important powers is by promoting Islamic hate speech and cutting off freedom of speech so that there won't be other opinions that contradict with the hate speeches given in Islamic educational religious institutions and in the media. So what do you get after over 1400 years of exposing people's minds to those hate speeches, the only logical conclusion would be, that you a get a whole nation filled with hate and rage and anger towards the other religions that they were told to hate, and those hateful and angry and aggressive people will devote not just their lives, but also their finances and their children so they can empower their Islamic country even more.
These are some of the many many videos about Islamic hate speech that you can find on youtube and all over the internet.
After every things that religion in general and Islam in particular has said and done over thousands of years, After waging wars, after shedding so much blood, after so many persecutions of gays and lesbians and Jews and Christians and after all the brain washing and promoting hate, and after all of these years of causing so much pain and so much more suffering some ignorant Muslims asks me why my hate is focused on Muslims? I should be laughing at the irony of this question, but i find my self unable to laugh because it so much more than that, if it was just irony i would laugh at the question, but there are other factors such as sheer ignorance, narrow mindedness that just hits me where it hurts, and nothing hurts me more than to see some one so narrow minded and more ignorant and full of hate who is in a position of power and that his ignorant opinions and decisions that are backed up by his brainwashed followers dictate how genuine people of true knowledge and wisdom are silenced, and mentally abused.
We all brought up to believe that we are special in one way or another, and we feel very easily offended when we're called ignorant, but as nation that suffers from being one of the poorest nations of the world, we need to ask our selves that there is something wrong with us, there is something wrong in us that is getting in the way of our prosperity and advancement and tolerance. Long time ago we thought the earth was at the center of the universe because it is so special to us, that delusion of greatness made us come up with the wrong answers to explain every thing around us. Until we find a way to get over ourselves and get over our selflessness, we will never be able to see who is truly great minded. We have to realize that people of great intelligence are very rare gems that needs to be given all the recognition that they need to reach their full potential, and lead us to the Utopia that we've been dreaming about since we evolved in to thinking beings. Religion is not the answer to the problems of this day and age, because its fueled by hate, and because religion can't coexist with other religions, therefor it will only cause more conflicts and wars till one of the religions prevails and dominates the whole world. I can't imagine how a terrible world this would become if it was ruled by one religious authority, what makes our world so special to us is the diversity of its cultures and its people. having one religion ruling that whole planet would kill each person's identity then we would all be nothing more than zombies unable to think for our selves not even able to make our decisions or having our own opinions without having to seek the approval of our leaders.
