The tragedy of Islam

The internet is full of claims and theories about Islam many of these are not the truth and come from a misunderstanding. One claim that has appeared quite a bit in social media is a statement that says, “Allah is not God.” The name Allah means God and is simply the Arabic pronunciation of the Hebrew word Eli which is the word for God; it is the most used word for God in the original Hebrew Bible. In fact it is the word used by Jesus when he was dying on the cross, “Eli Eli Lama Sabachth ani?” (My God, My God why hast thou forsaken me?).  This plea is a direct quote from Psalm 22:1 which would have been well known by Jesus and his disciples.
Islam was introduced amongst the descendants of Ishmael who were predominantly Druze, as was Jethro, the Father in Law of Moses. The Druze were friends and brothers to the descendants of Isaac and his son Israel, the Hebrews, who became the Jews once they settled in Judea. The tragedy of Islam is that Muhammad introduced a philosophy that empowered those of evil and destructive natures to kill or convert their fellow man. The intent of Muhammad was to conquer the world which was demonstrated by his own behaviour, he led a violent Jihad that willingly slaughtered those who stood against him and even those who surrendered under promise of safety. Islam proudly boasts of the large numbers who died at the hands of their prophet.

It is not just in the matter of converting infidels that Islam is violent it is also violent to its adherents and especially to anyone who wishes to leave the religion. Prior to the creation of Islam the descendants of Abraham all observed the same laws, when Abraham bound his son upon the Alter the Almighty pledged that he would be God unto all Abraham’s seed “unto all generations”. The rules and traditions that began with Abraham were subverted by Muhammad to create a force designed for conquest.

Most Muslims are very good people, kind and non-violent but the traditions introduced by Muhammad force them to follow a path that was not intended by their forefathers and locks them into this paradigm under threat of death. The philosophy is pedantic about observance of the first and second commandments, observing only one God and not creating graven images but then readily disregarding the third commandment and calling out to God as they commit murder, claiming it is in his name. Most people including Muslims don’t go around killing people but for those with a proclivity to violence this view provides a ready excuse.

The final tragedy of Islam is that many otherwise good people are led into believing that actions condemned by God are acceptable under the rules of their religion. Islam requires submission it does not encourage people to examine their actions so that many think it their duty to kill and harass non-believers. Muslims who go out and shoot or stab people or blow up buses do so thinking that what they are doing is a good thing whereas logic should tell them that this is not the case. The very teachings of Islam inspire many to break the commandments and jeopardise any hope of redemption and that is a tragedy.

The Age of Lunacy

  We are living in an era that will one day be recognised as the age of lunacy. There are so many views held by society that have become distorted and divorced from reality, from multiple genders to fear of doom due to global warming (since changed to climate change because the ice caps did not melt, and land masses did not sink under rising seas.) Gender questions are simply answered by a person’s genes, every cell in your body, except red blood cells, has either XX or XY genes. A very few people might have XXY and develop as a hermaphrodite but that is very rare and medical staff may have to decide on allocating a gender and whether surgery is required. They will not be as suggested by the cartoon South Park where Mrs Cartman was both her son’s Father and Mother. Gender dysphoria is a mental aberration and should be addressed as a mental problem, many people with this condition are prone to suicide, this propensity is not diminished by gender reassignment surgery. Surgery may in fa

Having reviewed my website and found that it is no longer performing as it once did I have decided to close it down and seek a different avenue to inform possible customers.  Being a site that delved into many subjects search engines found it difficult to classify my varied interests and as is the case today if in doubt they ignore you or question your content. Anything that might be politically conservative or support religion is immediately suspect. I have instead decided to present links to my various books through my blog and also the Prophecyline forum . With that aim in mind the following is a summary of published works to date. The Time Illusion   First published in 1989 this book was inspired by my knowledge that our understanding of the nature of time was wrong. The prevailing view was that time was a one way flow but I proposed a time dimension that included past, present and future. The only way that this structure can exist is for each second to vary in du

The destruction of Victoria

  When Captain James Cook discovered Australia in 1770. the very first part he discovered was Point Hicks in Victoria. He did not land there but sailed North and landed at Botany Bay where he planted the British flag and claimed the land for the Crown of England. Settlement of the new colony did not occur until 1777, following the American war of independence in 1776 and the Americans refused to take further British convicts and a new colony was needed to house those whom the British prisons could not contain. The entire country was known as New South Wales but in 1803 efforts were made to create a settlement in the Southern region, but poor locations were selected, and the early attempts were mostly unsuccessful. Whaler William Dutton built at Portland in 1829 and then in the 1830’s pastoralist John Batman from Tasmania, explored the area around Port Phillip Bay and sailed up the Yarra River. Landing on the North bank of the river near what is now the site of the old Customs house f
