Eid al-Adha: whither civilization

 'With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil - that takes religion.' Steven Weinberg

The world’s nearly 2 billion Muslims will celebrate Eid al-Adha on 28 June 2023. (1)  Sheep, Goats, Cows, and Camels will be brutally butchered, or “sacrificed” in the Muslim world by the millions -- 9 million sentient beings in Pakistan alone! Not only in the Middle East and North Africa, but significant Muslim enclaves exist all over the world and expanding. (2) 


As their mandated jihad progresses by way of migration to non-Muslim counties under the pretext of studies, business, marriage, and refuge they take with them the primitive notion of sacrifice, which in all civilized nations goes contrary to animal protection laws, humane slaughter laws, sanitation, public safety, and even the cannons of the predominant religion. (Lacking laws to protect helpless humans and other animals, a society is by definition uncivilized.)

The meekness of Western progressivism is an ally to Islamic ends. While in Muslim countries visitors are forbidden to worship in their own manner (no churches, synagogues, or temples allowed) or even wear a discrete symbol of their faith, Muslims abroad demand the free exercise of their faith in defiance of local laws and tradition. There are thousands of mosques in the US and Canada. There are mosques in South America, Australia, and a scandalous number of them in Europe. Jihad is regression and the end of Western Culture.


To gain Allah’s favor, Muslims target “clean” animals – i.e., those who chew the cud and have a divided hoof – in a feast of unparalleled savagery. Eid al-Adha cannot be understood without seeing the victims waiting their turn standing or laying in the blood of previous ones still thrashing and crying. The serial killing proceeds for days while Muslims ignore the agonies of the innocent.


To equate carnage and unfathomable suffering with holiness negates the very concept – or rather illusion -- of humans being the pinnacle of Creation. Dashain in Nepal, a frenzy of Hindu sacrifice, and other ritual mass killings survive in primitive ethnicities that can function only under brutal domination because reason and individuality require effort and intelligence. The danger ahead is that fertility rates are inversely proportional to common sense, and with at least half the human population being intrinsically cruel … well, you do the math.


And so, because of a sun-addled shepherd’s tale about a fictional “Ibrahim” killing a Ram in lieu of his son, trillions of animals have suffered and died needlessly in the name of Allah, who is as real and relevant as Little Red Riding Hood. Nor will the massacre abate soon.


Islam: Whither civilization.
