Bruce Welt Whether or not Islam is of the devil is impossible to know.
What is well known is that wherever Islam and Islamic Sharia law control society there is abhorrent abuse of women and intolerance of "infidel" non-Moslems, homosexuals and others.
Contrary to the good-natured, letter-writing defenders of Islam, opposition to Islam does not require hatred of Moslems.
Similarly, opposition to communism does not require hatred of Chinese or Cubans.
Islam means "submission" and when Islam forms the rule-of-law in society, submission to Allah and recognition of Mohammed as his sole and final prophet becomes the ultimate law.
Islam does not permit recognition of other religions, which is why countries like Saudi Arabia bars open non-Islamic religious symbols or worship.
It is also why non-Moslems have been and continue to be mercilessly persecuted to the verge of extinction in many Islamic countries, including those that receive copious amounts of U.S. aid money (e.g. Coptic Christians of Egypt).
Islam is a religious and political ideology that, in its currently broadly practiced form in the Islamic world, is antithetical to western values.
Islam cherishes submission to Allah and his prophet, not free-speech, tolerance and equality.
With that said, Moslems, like all people, should be judged by their deeds alone, not their religion or private beliefs.
It is not bigotry to oppose communism, fascism or Islam, but it is bigotry to hate people because of their religion or race.
