Two helicopters, fifty armoured jeeps, tanks and bulldozers have

with stones.

international / rights, freedoms and repression / other press Tuesday February 21, 2006 06:47 by talya
It does not pass without notice that the violent religions today are those that subscribe to the ideology of ancient Semitic nomads. Today the ancient ideology of Canaanite tribes finds expression in Islam, Judaism and Christianity. These three barbaric, primitive, patriarchal religions are the scourge of the planet; no other social group matches their blood lust, violence, hypocrisy and disregard for the environment – they stand indicted by their actions. Allow me to draw your attention to that which you would constantly deny. read full story / add a comment

This is an extract from a WSM article on Islam. It is timely that it should be brought forward again. It challenges many of the ortodoxies of the "Left" and Liberals who have prostrated themselves before Islam. Thes e perhaps are the most important couple of sentences:

"Anarchists have a long and proud tradition of fighting the power of organised religion, including in countries like Spain fighting fascist gangs formed on a religious basis. While we recognise the freedom of people to hold a religion we also recognise that there has to be a freedom from religion - an idea that runs against the basis of Islam."

Read and enjoy. The full article is at the link below. read full story / add a comment

A look at the recent work of SETI. The creationism debate is rekindled by scientists enlisting the clergy in the US to keep God out of classrooms. A new version of creationism is discussed with regard to education and commercial media. The incompleteness of evolution is examined. The interesting theory of Panspermia is shown to be a likely addition to the theory of evolution. read full story / add a comment
