“Bolshevism combines the characteristics of the French Revolution with those of the rise of Islam. Marx has taught that Communism is fatally predestined to come about; this produces a state of mind not unlike that of the early successors of Mahommet. Among religions, Bolshevism is to be reckoned with Mohammadanism rather than with Christianity and Buddhism. Christianity and Buddhism are primarily personal religions, with mystical doctrines and a love of contemplation. Mohammedanism and Bolshevism are practical, social, unspiritual, concerned to win the empire of this world.” Bertrand Russell (1872 – 1970)

how can you say you hate even one troop if you don't pray five times a day?

Oh, suddenly the Roman church is too namby-pamby, too insular, not ruthless enough? Feh, we were killing off heretical sects and conquering Europe centuries before Muhammad wrote his alternate history fanfic.

its incredibly dumb to say islam is "unspiritual" obviously but one cool thing about islam is kind of the fact that its spread was helped a lot by the fact that it offered a really practical set of rules for trade etc and you got a sweet deal with other muslim traders after converting
