I generally do not watch television or give much validity to generalisations made by international media when I read the paper, but the constant attention given to Islam extremists of the past several years has gotten the better of me. Rather than accept this ever growing prejudiced mentality I felt obligated to get pro active and began digging, as the title suggests my labor thus far has bore rotten fruit.
From what I can tell Islamic beliefs refute the natural evulotion that other European religions have undergone to adjust to modern society and instead dictate and idiology that seems to be causing a regression in social development in European countries, and the stagnation of social development in countries where it is in the majority.
I am actually quite fearful for the future of the freedoms we have whilst the religion grows within Europe as Muslims use the freedom of expression, which would be denied to them in their societies, to protest against freedom of expression. This political correctness has provided a loop hole causing tolerance of the intolerant to such an extent that the threat to free speech has went unchecked, and now seems to be the beginning of the end. If I were to emigrate to another country I would feel morally and ethically bound to adjust and embrace the core beliefs on which that society was built.
I have been searching for a couple of weeks for the adjacent side to the anti free speach movement, within Europes Islamic community, and the best thing I can say is perhaps the ones not protesting are indifferent to the idea of upholding the ideals of their surrogate counties.
If not why aren't they out protesting to show the world they aren't the metaphorical unicorns many people would have us believe?
I hope someone can put my fears to rest, as I said this has been really bothering me.
Futhermore, having actually expressed myself does give me another perspective which is always welcome. Perhaps it is the fault of the belief system we have that is or will cause its own demise, and had it not been Islam to envelope the PC gone mad it would have been another perhaps more oppressive religion that took advantage of the egotistical `we can assimilate all cause we so smart, so lets bring these heathens in and save them ` mentallity equality and free speech propagate............
I for one would like to welcome our new over lords.
