Yusak Allabi, president and CEO of the Islamic-American Charity Brotherhood (IACB), announced an offer of financial support to a prominent Christian creationist advocacy group today. Allabi, a self-proclaimed fan of airplanes and the demolition of occupied skyscrapers, said his foundation shares many of the core beliefs of Christian creationists.
"Militant Islam has much to learn from militant Christianity," Allabi said. "There are more ways to initiate force for the purpose of instituting state religion than just the run-of-the-mill hijackings and suicide bombings. If there's one thing we can learn from the Christians, it's that we don't always have to be such show-offs."
Allabi says that many Christian Republicans are on record affirming the militant Islamic-Christian principle of indoctrination through state-run schools and coercive "public" education.
"We feel we really have a lot to learn from [Christians] about the latest trends in mass brainwashing," Allabi said.
Savethehumans.com has learned that the IACB has sent a check for an undisclosed amount to the Kristian Koalition for Kreationism. Documentation obtained from the IACB defends its position to contribute to the Christian creationist group, citing a Turkish Islamic text by Adem Tatli. The preface of the text states:
"[Western] civilization has turned its back on God and universal truths ... Among the demonic hypotheses this fundamentally flawed civilization -- which has removed the concept and belief of the Creator God and replaced it with the idols of Man and this mortal life -- has cursed humanity with, is Darwinism and the theory of evolution."
The IACB position paper goes on to quote directly from the Koran, which Allabi said is in fundamental agreement with the Bible in this regard:
"Behold! thy Lord said to the angels: 'I am about to create man from sounding clay from mud molded into shape; when I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit fall ye down in obeisance unto him."
(15:28,29)
Allabi says that the Republican-leaning KKK is a perfect partner for his militant Islamic front organization. Allabi likens the partnership to the Hamas-al-Qaeda connection.
"The important thing is the religious indoctrination," Allabi said. "We'll argue about the petty stuff like which religion later on, once the mechanisms of religious coercion are fully installed."
Allabi said the militant Christian belief in the connection of church and state presents an additional shared principle upon which to base the Islamic-Christian partnership. Quoting The Canadian Society of Muslims, he said:
"Islam does not treat law and morality as different things. What is legal/lawful is also moral and conversely what is unlawful/illegal is also immoral."
The IACB says their own and other militant Islamic organizations are in complete agreement with Christians on other important issues. For example, Allabi said, both religions agree on the immorality of abortion:
"If even the conception is the result of extra-marital union or forced rape, abortion is not allowed, because the (innocent) baby to be, has the right to life, that can not be denied."
And euthanasia:
"On the issue of euthanasia, Islamic position is that since a human being does not owns [sic] and masters his/her life, therefore, he can NOT decide and ask for death. No. The Islamic view starts from the fact that life (like the rest) is a trust from Allah, and can be terminated by Allah alone. There can be no euthanasia, whether with 'dignity' or otherwise."
Further, Allabi said that the area in which militant Islam agrees most with militant Christianity is the looseness with which one may interpret its religious teachings, when all else fails.
"Let's face it," Allabi said. "Somebody's bound to find a hole in this stuff. That's why Islamists and Christians subscribe to this:
"In view of the information provided by the Qur'an and the human knowledge that has developed over time, one may ascribe to any explanation that seems correct to him."
This is where militant Islam and militant Christianity agree most, Allabi said, "the most fundamental principle of all religions."
"You just make the shit up as you go along", Allabi said.
