Islamo-Christianity is Here

The point of all true religion is to teach mankind the difference between right and wrong.

(SALEM, Ore.) - I have an article brewing entitled “Islamo-Christianity is here.” My thesis is that the Jews, with their secularization and multi-culturalism, tried to erode the Christian faith in the Church.

However, no matter what they did, 95% levels (or more) of Americans believe in either God or angels. They can’t take it away from us. So we are left with this formless belief that there is a Creator, who sent down lots of different messengers who started different religions at different places and times, but it all about says the same thing: Love thy neighbor as thyself, and strive to be less egotistical and always be grateful to the One Who not only created you, but continues to give you life at each moment.

You are powerless to control this force. It’s all good. Most Americans are spiritual rather than being attached to one religion or another. That’s Islam. The only reason people don’t realize it is because they have been lied to by Jews and Orientalists.

Orientalism is a field of western liberal education, that came from justifying colonialism, where they study other countries with the assumption that white European Christian society (the West) is superior to theirs. It’s typically looking at The Other as Exotic. If you go to college in the US that is what Eastern Studies or Arab Studies or African Studies usually deals with. Orientalists will tell you all this total BS about the Prophet Mohammed that comes from old Christian writings NOT Islamic scripture.

Jewish Reformation and Enlightenment theory dominates liberal Democrat secular society as well as leftist, anarchist and Zionist societies, whose philosophers are primarily Jewish. (Marx, Emma Goldman, Herschel). In German culture, Jews became reformed or enlightened in order to be able to fit in with the dominant culture, eat pork and dress in everyday clothes. The result of this however is that Christians too began to belittle religion in general. A tacit societal agreement emerged, that because the Jew gave up his religion, the Christian should give up his religion too, to be secular. Israel Shamir talks about some of this in his writing.

“Neo-Judaism is the unofficial faith of the American Empire, and the war in the Middle East is indeed the Neo-Judaic Jihad… Neo-Judaism is the cult of globalism, neo-liberalism, destruction of family and nature, anti-spiritual and anti-Christian… But Islam is the last great reservoir of spirit, tradition and solidarity, and the Neo-Jews fight it with all firepower at their disposal… the war on Islam is a stage of the last war, the War on Christ… Thus the actions of the Neo-Jews eventually lead to the profanation of the world, and, on another level, to liberation from the limitations imposed by the society and God, to the victory of individualism.” [see: israelshamir.net/English/Theopolitics.htm]

To quote my husband Joachim Martillo, “Piety towards God and righteousness toward one’s fellow man represent the core of the Gospel teaching.”

The Gospel is one of the four books of Islam, which include in their original form the Torah, the Gospel, the Psalms, and the Quran. Whether you call the Gospel Christianity or Islam, striving for righteousness as followers of God through the guidance of prophets and with faith in the Messiah, summarizes the basic idea. The point of all true religion is to teach mankind the difference between right and wrong. There is a difference between right and wrong and the difference is clear. In fact, if your relationship with your soul is pure you probably don’t even need to be told. But nobody is pure and we all need some basic guidelines for human life to continue smoothly.

That’s what prophets are for. Faith in the scripture is based on the belief that God gave certain people wisdom, which they transmitted to others, about how to maximize our success during our life journey. Not all people have time to go inside and meditate and let go of our ego to the point we are riding a winged horse to Jerusalem to lead the prayer with Abraham, Jesus and Moses to ascend to the Throne of Allah. Most of us cannot do this because we are busy trying to survive. That is why we trust the sacred teachings and we interpret them within our own selves as to what verses have the most resonance at a given moment. We don’t believe them to be true, we know them to be true because we read them.

“Verily, for the righteous are Gardens of delight in the Presence of their Lord. Shall we then treat the people of Faith like the people of Sin? What is the matter with you? How judge you?” [Al-Quran 68:34-36]

To me, this verse makes me think immediately of those who equate Palestinian self-defense with Israeli aggression. How can you say they are equally evil when Israel is preventing people from getting water? To someone else, this verse will say something on another level that relates to their needs.

That’s what Islam is all about. Like the inverse what the Hell’s Angels say, “We don’t choose our members, we recognize them,” Muslims are those who recognize the ancient voice of God in the Quran and they realize they have always believed that, like they recognize the veins on the back of their own hands.

Pagan societies work hard to create idols and then worship them. We imagine a thin woman, who we want to be. We meditate all day about being empty and clean and serene, reciting affirmations to ourselves. But is this a religion? The Quran states:

“Say: Do ye then take (for worship) protectors other than Him, such as have no power either for good or for harm to themselves?” [Al-Quran 13:16]

If I weigh 90 pounds or 190 pounds, and I have weighed both, is that going to matter on the Last Day?

Becoming a responsible person is about long term planning. Instead of counting calories think about how many people you could be feeding with the amount of dollars you’ve got. It’s a mental revolution.

Thanks for posting my essay! There was one typo that I needed to point out as the message was unclear. "Orientalists will tell you all this total BS about the Prophet Mohammed [that] comes from old Christian writings NOT Islamic scripture." The word "that" was missing and that seemed to change the meaning of the sentence. There are two trains of academic thought regarding Islam. One is centuries full of Christians writing ABOUT Muslims and Islam, and the other is centuries of Muslims writing about Muslims and Islam. Some of the Christian beliefs about Islam are clearly contradicted by the Muslim scriptures. For example, Christians used to believe that Muslims believed that women couldn't go to heaven and had no souls. Yet, the Quran actually clearly states that the soul of a man and a woman is equally responsible and will be rewarded with Hell or Heaven according to the piety and behavior of that person regardless of gender.

Tim King: Maria, thank you for writing and helping us get that straight. I will leave this for those who caught the story the other way. We apologize for the mistake. If you have a moment please drop me a line at tim@salem-news.com, I would be interested in other articles you have or may write, thanks!

Islam is a fascist ideology. Just review the history of it's spread since it's creation. Millions have been butchered. It does not adapt with other religions, for it is designed to dominate. Check out London, Denmark, Lewiston Maine, Minnisota, and many other places. It demands to be the prevailing ideology. Just show one place in the past where it does not take over, always by force? You cannot. Sure there are peaceful muslims, they always start out that way until there numbers increase.

Editor: Celtic, I hope you guys are paid well by Israel to keep this little Spam campaign up. Just what by the way, do you call the Spanish Inquisitions? How about the Salem Witch Trials? How about the morons who shoot abortion doctors and all the religious freaks in the midwest and the deep south. They scare me far more than any Islamic person.

How about the recent slaughter of 1,300 Gazans as Israel loses 13, including 4 to friendly fire? How about the death of 1.3 million Iraqi people who never raised a hand toward the U.S. but yet were still attacked?

The truth is, that you are not trying to spread the truth. You are a racist and a bigot, that much is clear. NO GROUP of people, religious, cultural, etc., operate the same way all the time, except the military. I say this because you spew hatred and attempt to broaden the divide. The truth of the matter is that others in Israel are horrified by what their country did; just as we Americans have been under Bush. I know far too many Muslim people to think that you have one clue about what you are talking about. Muslim soldiers have our military's back in both Iraq and Afghanistan. So you are against the Coalition also? Are you really just another anti-Coalition Militant waiting your turn? Quit bashing our Muslim brothers who we value right alongside our Jewish and Christian friends and people of other faiths.

Well Tim, I was in the Middle East myself and I met some wonderful people. I don't think I insulted Islam. I asked you about Radical Islam. The suicide bombers? The terrorists? And talk about Gaza, everyone knows that HAMAS is a terrorist Organization. We have Muslims here in the US who preach hate toward the West and Israel. You can't deny that. I'm not talking about the Muslims who live here in peace and live here by our laws. I'm talking about the ones who run in the streets called for jihad and the death of the infidels.

I enjoyed this article. I remember reading when the people of israel cried out for a king. Everyone else has one, we want one to. God said "trust me, not a good idea"..the argument went back and forth, til God said "let them have their king".. after that was nothing but total chaos. Be careful what you wish for, and be careful about putting man above God. I see it happening here in the U.S. and it concerns me. You wanted a king? you got one. thanks for the article.

Great article, great propaganda for Islam. I think it won't be long before Muslims knock on my door to hand me a free copy of the Quran. But why don't you talk about Terrorism? People who blow themselves up in the name of Islam? Killing innocent people? You hammer on Israel who is defending itself. And what about tolerance? We're suppose to tolerate Islam and Islam slaps us in the face and don't tolerate our Religion. Well, think about it. It goes both ways. And the Muslims are the ones who want to push Sharia law down our throats and don't respect our laws i.e. honor killings. Any feedback?

Tim King: Yeah, I want to give you feedback. I hope somebody does knock on your door one day with a copy of the Qu'ran; maybe you would read it and learn something and even discover that the person dropping it off may be someone you could know and like. You express a bigoted view by considering all Muslim people the same in a sentence. Israel has, and it is obvious to the entire world, shown zero restraint against its neighbors. 1,300 dead in Gaza; 13 Israeli soldiers died, and four were from freindly fire. You are supposed to tolerate Islam and the prejudice that blocks you and others from doing that has perpetuated this entire mess. I am an American and my country has freedom of religion and separation of church and state. Israel bases its existence on the Bible. I have spent time with both Iraqi and Afghan military forces, all Muslim; all good people watching our soldier's backs. By insulting Islam, you insult the mission our military is engaged in overseas. In the end everyone needs to give and work toward tolerance.
