#3  It's Hemingway, P2K. It's all generalizations and cliches, except when he's feeling purple-prosey.

#2  I wouldn't necessarily say its dying as just another century spat of house cleaning that's been going on for over a millennium. Sort of like the annual bout of flu. Islamics have been butchering Islamics for centuries. Like another ethnic community, it's always been easier to blame the outsider for the problems created by the community itself. The body count on who actually kills who remains a in-house championship. Self destructive impulse is in the culture. Literally. We suffer from the spill over.

#1  Islam has this built into its values. Islam is flailing around and splashing its own blood up the wall. It has totally failed as a creative force in world arenas all across the board.

I think it would be safe to say that Islam has nothing to offer and that the entire religion is in a state of massive social decay.

Islam is dying.
