Is Love UnIslamic?

A city in always cheerful Pakistan has banned St. Valentine’s day, citing love is a western value imposed upon them.

I honestly don’t know what to do at this point. I would say airdrop porn on them, but I am fairly certain every guy in the photo above has some of the nastiest porn in the world in their place, despite objections otherwise.

Its not a fear of the female body, but if not that, what?

Service of God takes priority over love.
A problem.
Can be seen in other religions,but really a priority in that religion.

They don’t have any self control when it comes to women, that’s what they’re afraid of. That’s why the women in some muslim countries have to be wrapped up like cocoons. Otherwise, the men wouldn’t be able to keep their hands off them.

Sufi’s probably believe in love more than Christians. Why can’t Love of God take precident over Service to God in daily actions? Some, such as in the Bhakti tradition may say no difference, others who study the concepts would say it’s like leadership versus management… no difference, actually the same concept. One quickly realizes this isn’t true once one steps foot in a Department of Motor Vehicles… one can receive service without love, management without a sense of leadership.

How can one “Love God” in a state of perpetual hate and angst against others? Can one really serve and love God at the exact same time as hating another (the act of service), or is the act contrary to the Love of God, as one must essentially give up Loving God for the duration of the action.

This presumes one can’t truly hate, and truly love at the same time simultaneously. In order to hate, one must give up Loving God, even if it supposedly for his benefit.

I’m a little stumped as to why every angry Jihadi feels the need to make God the beneficiary of their welfare distribution of angry acts. I’m certain God wanted everyone to be repressed, constantly on edge and eternally pissed, docking everyone in the world in their every act, dream and intent. Its why he made the Sahara so damn hot.

The modern notion and feeling of (romantic) love is indeed a “western” creation. So I guess non-westerners are somewhat justified in wanting to reject it, considering how they’re more interested in merely opposing something then they are in actually understanding life, their own psyche and feelings and desires, the world, science, or the philosophical and anthropological/cultural-historical basis for religious belief. To put it simply they would rather die than see a higher truth, which is a bit funny given how low to the ground they already are.

Though there are chicken and egg issues here. If not having one’s hair covered was not culturally the equivalent of coming on to man, would the men act the way they do? In the West men can act just like that when clothing or lack of culturally mean to them that a women wants sex now. One you set up the rules, they become a language and create expectations, apart from any taboo thrill of seeing something that is supposed to be covered.

No, I don’t think so.

If women are segregated and reserved for making children only, then someone or something else must be set aside for man’s sexual pleasure (and a man MUST have his sexual pleasure!). So the pedophilic practice of Bacha Bazi (dancing sex slave boys) was created. I guess it’s either that or dancing goats- since women are off limits.

The trouble is that when they emigrate to western, non muslim societies a good many of them think the women are up for grabs.

Give it 1-2 generations and immigrating Muslims to Europe and the US will be totally integrated into secular culture, with few exceptions. Jews, Indians, Natives, Arabs, Africans, these groups that have been in the west multi-generationally tend to integrate as their children grow up here and experience western civilization as their norm. Plus we have recent technological advances that speed up this process of cultural assimilation.

Like what? Porn? Seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

What tech?

islam will never integrate, it is just about numbers.

caucasian fertility rate = 1.8
hispanic/african america fertility rate = 2.4
muslim fertility rate = 7.3

the west will be muslim in one generation. Just math. Invasion by another name. Want cheap oil managed by special interests/competition, well now cheap oil has become a mega threat, especially in EU.

ps: racial/cultural issues are just part of power game

Several generations in the future, the Europe could be split up into Christian/Muslim sections. The Muslim areas could look something like this:

Doubtful. Christianity is collapsing in Europe, with the Europeans along with it. You can’t have one without the other apparently.

Its going to be a strongly Islamic Society.

Perhaps, but then like christianity it will become systematically watered down and liberalized, modernized and liberated, no more praying five times a day because who has time for that, and women can wear bikinis and have their own careers. That kind of stuff… a gradual loosening of the religion to accommodate the new fast paced consumer market that will be shaping and driving the desires of the people. Textbook Islam is just too medieval. It needs to lighten up some… and will. You’ll see.

Or, they will notice Europe had made massive intellectual strides until it went cross eyed, reading the works of guys like Marx’s and Nietzsche, and gave up on life, stopped trying and striving. In countries that didn’t do this, like the US… they survived, in Europe, they died chanting songs of the overman… who ironically were Muslims who didn’t give a fuck about such shit.

I think the new Europeans arriving each day will embrace the Enlightenment, the history of their cousin religion who followed “the history of the book”, but will draw a very distinct line if caution in the 19th century when everything started to implode. They won’t want it replicated on their religion. Guys like Sauwelios, Fixed Cross, Jakob, Zoots, Satyr, Iambigious, Magnus Anderson, History Boy will be quarantined and not allowed access to books, or to teach or preach. They can be dealt with humanely, isolated in gulags on Gotland Island, refused the right to further outside contact or breeding, save they contaminate humanity with their decline.

Court president using a modified Shariah will not such characters as inherently weak minded, and self destructive individuals, who can’t by their own admission tell the difference between right or wrong, understand what ethics is, pursue everything selfishly, and refuse compassion and patriotism for their own people.

Honestly, what sane society would tolerate such foul men in the face of a obvious intellectual and sovereign collapse? Europe isn’t worth saving anymore. We tried through the 20th century to save it, and it kicked and screamed the whole way, blabbering about Dasein and the Overman. The End Is Now Fucking Well Nigh… they have their nihilism they always wanted, their decay, their ignorance, fear and confusion. Its up to the bold thinking of the New Europeans who are walking with their children in hand from Turkey, seeing these wired eyes, scared pale faces to take account of their inability to think rationally anymore.

I think Islamic scholars across Europe will take note of this. They won’t allow themselves to fall for the Nietzsche Trap. “I will protect Europe from becoming Nihilists by forcing everyone to become a Nihilist, and will blame all Prussian mental lethargy on Christianity, they are to be Scapegoated for me catching Syphilis in a white house dammit!”.

That sort of shit isn’t going to fly once Islam is occupying the former Vatican, the Muslims operating the ESA and making treaties with China, USA (both major Christian power in that era, militarily and technologically advanced), India, Christian Africa, etc.

Its just this one land that collapsed, via a philosophical virus. You see this virus everywhere on this forum. Its everyone desiring to die. They are giving up on life. All for literally nothing.

So I highly doubt Muslims will follow suit. I think they will differentiate from hillbillies in Sudan or The Swat Valley, embrace classical, medieval, Renaissance and Enlightenment philosophy, but will drawl the line sharply at when The Second European Dark Ages began. Hegel, Nietzsche, Stirner, Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Deleuze, Zizek.

They are getting dumber and dumber, and are in complete shock to find their crazy backwards suicidal ideas aren’t brnifiting them. They mistake “race” for society and country even, write on endlessly trying to combine a culture of rape with feminism (this forum seems perpetually on the cusp of that, no one has quite done it yet). Silly Rabbits, Tricks are for Kids.

I found the Quran unbearable to read.
As far as Allah’s mercy, they tend to consider really bad shit merciful, then compare it to even worse shit.

I believe your exaggerating. Unless you can quote evidence, I can’t take these statements seriously.

Well, that is precisely what James was talking about in other thread about definitions.

All that is bullshit, both protest against v-day and its criticism also. Secondly, neither Foxnews nor its viewers sincerely tried to understand what Islam is actually suggesting; usual intentionally distorted definition play.

Islam does not say that the love should be forbidden and women are human factories for producing children. The restriction is only on the public display of what should happen either between one to one or only in the bedroom. It is as simple as that.

with love,

Failed to read the article again Zinnati. You can’t just throw around the weight of your nationalism and regional elitism and expect to triumph. Ill chalk this up to yet another failure on your part.
