Secular Depravity: Most Secularists Lie As Often As They Breathe The Oxygen Of Life

In a recent cyber debate with a prominent Egyptian secularist, who vehemently opposed any role or expression of religion, especially Islam, in public life, the fascist-minded Islamo-phobe argued that in order for Muslims to take part in political life, they would have to leave their religion at home.

"Religion belongs in the mosques, not in the streets," he argued.

I rebutted that, unlike Christianity which has no Sharia or set of laws regulating political life, Islam is a comprehensive way of life whose laws cover every conceivable aspect of the Muslim community life from cradle to grave.

More to the point, I further argued that a Muslim, especially a true Muslim, can't leave his religion at home since doing so would mean effectively leaving his morality at home.

"A true Muslim can't worship God in the Mosque but worship the devil in the street or in parliament or even at the presidential palace."

Yet this is exactly what the new Egyptian constitution, concocted by a group of 50 idiots chosen by a Charlatan army general who can hardly speak one or two Arabic sentences without making mistakes.

Article-74 of the new deformed constitution, which I hope the Egyptian people will consign to the dustbin of history, stipulates that political parties based on Islam will be outlawed. However, political parties based on secularism, liberalism, Communism, Marxism and what have you will be allowed to function without any problem.

In other words, an Egyptian Muslim would have to effectively renounce his or her faith if he or she wanted to be involved in political life. This is because a Muslim voter can't give his vote to a Muslim political party reflecting his moral and political convictions, given the fact that Islam-based political parties are banned.

Well, this is more than legislating Godless secularism, it is legislating atheistic fascism. In the final analysis, the followers of every conceivable ideology and doctrine under the sun are granted carte blanche to practice politics according to their convictions except Muslims.

For example, Christians can practice politics based on their Christian convictions. This happens everywhere in Europe where Christian democratic parties are at the helm of government in many countries such as Germany, Canada and Australia.

Likewise, Communists and Marxists are welcome to practice politics and form political parties based on their peculiar Communist convictions.

The same rule conceivably applies to liberals, social democrats, Free Masons, Satan worshipers, gays and Lesbians. Only the followers of Islam are denied the natural right of taking part in political life based on Islam.

Some people might observe that all religion-based political parties are banned according to the new Egyptian constitution. But wait a minute. There is a trick here because for a religion like Christianity, there is no problem in adopting secularism as the law of the land in Egypt. In the final analysis, secularism is part of Christianity, but not part of Islam whose religious scriptures state that "Inni el Hukmu illa Lillah" (Judgment is for none but Allah) (Sura Yousuf-V-40). There are numerous other Quranic verses stressing this matter.

Which really shows that the new constitution is a weapon trained at Islam not Christianity or any other religion and that its ultimate goal is to eradicate the Islamists, the number-1 political force in Egypt from political life.

The secularists deny this, but most secularists lie as often as they breathe the oxygen of life. Hence, their denials have no value and carry no real weight.

But some of these criminal-minded idiots brazenly admit that Sisi and cohorts who morphed the Egyptian justice system into a disgracefully pliant rubber stamp to strangle democracy and usurp the will of the Egyptian people have the right to bar the Islamists, particularly the Muslim Brotherhood, from taking part in political life.

Confronting this hateful hostility from these fascistic elements that lost transparent elections three times, the Muslims of Egypt must tear up this deformed document to smithereens either by voting "NO" or by boycotting the vote.

Voting yes, God forbid, would be tantamount to renouncing Islam and preferring all repulsive man-made ideologies over Islam, the last Divine testament to mankind.

Yes the criminal coup-makers would most likely resort to falsifying the elections. In the final analysis those who have overthrown the only democratically-elected president in Egypt's entire history, murdered thousands of innocent people in cold blood and arrested thousands of innocent people wouldn't hesitate to rig elections even for one second.

Holding elections requires honesty and integrity above all, a commodity that Sisi and cohorts and their supporters conspicuously lack.

But then, they would at least be exposed to the Egyptian masses and the world at large which would speed up their inevitable disappearance into trash basket of history. (end)
