@ 80. JFSanders

I understand where you are coming from. You are correct in pointing out the repackaging aspect. But although that can be considered its strength, it is also its weakness vis-a-vis Islam.

The weakness is due to the fact that an ordinary untrained human mind tends to follow pattern processes. The more the creed transmogrifies to adapt to the changing times, the more dichotomies and contradictions are created. And many, at some point, will have their epiphany.

Islam is a self-contained pattern system, entirely circular and bootstrapping. It damages the human spirit in ways that are almost inescapable from within the system. There are not that many apostates within the islamic countries, and the penalty of death is a powerful motivator.

If you compare how the people living in either system are able to escape it, you’d see I am correct.

The leftist system and regime can be overturned when the discrepancies become too apparent to the majority of population and the power structure that held it in place lost its stranglehold (1989, Eastern Europe).

Show me one country where Islam took a hold and that escaped from its yoke, without outside intervention.
