Atheism

"The abolition of religion as the illusory  happiness of the people is the demand for their real  happiness. To call on them to give up their illusions about their condition is to call on them to give up a condition that requires illusions. The criticism of religion is, therefore, in embryo, the criticism of that vale of tears of which religion is the halo.

Criticism has plucked the imaginary flowers on the chain not in order that man shall continue to bear that chain without fantasy or consolation, but so that he shall throw off the chain and pluck the living flower. The criticism of religion disillusions man, so that he will think, act, and fashion his reality like a man who has discarded his illusions and regained his senses, so that he will move around himself as his own true Sun. Religion is only the illusory Sun which revolves around man as long as he does not revolve around himself. "
    - Karl Marx

"Why, they call one divine and the other bestial, representing divinity and animality as two poles, between which they place humanity. They either will not or cannot understand that these three terms are really but one, and that to separate them is to destroy them."
    - Mikhail Bakunin
"Religion may demarc how far we have come. The point is not to free religion of encumbrances, but to free ourselves of the condition which makes religion possible."
    - Christopher Elliot Gray

Islam's Post-Capitalist Counter-Revolution Is Not Anti-Capital

The evaded point was that the human alienation between a book and its practice is what I judge. The book cannot kill me; it is what those "interpreting" it do whenst mixing that with "why" they seek an "answer" for their alienation in that book and in what that results. When massive amounts of people do the same thing, as in the bloodthirsty fervors of CatholicISM, StalinISM, MaoISM, or ShiitISM then it lends one to considering the source and the action. We conclude in like, but an understanding of the connection between the source, need, and actions is necessary versus all-encompassing slogans which do very little but imitate that upon which it mysteriously intends "DEATH".
"...betrayed the Islamic message..."
"...professor of Islamic studies..."
"....condemned the practice as un-Islamic"
I laugh at these excuses of Islam in its own deformed language of pillage and abuse. For what is written and for what were practiced by Mohammed himself, is that not record and evidence enough as to the fat bastard for whom all these war of words exist. The Jews have land that we want to conquer. Unfair. Bollocks.  Whether in table of contents or the appendices of the Koran/Qu'ran (or any other justifiable homicide how-to book), the best thing Islam can do is to cease to exist. No more that just the conditions which make it so readily able and possible must cease. No more solace in excuses. Those apologists for this and all religious abuse and continuation need exposure as part of the core - just as are extremists - for the pain, murder, and stasis of that condition. Calling it terrorist or calling it extremist - smells of the mutually-excusing war of the masters upon those they seek to divide and cut up into their herds - the same excuse justifying an imperial move.
