The main problem with Islam is that it is not only a religion, but also a way of life, a law, the Sharia, a political model, a social organization and government, unlike other religions. The ability to appreciate a situation with accuracy, does not have its raison d' être.
And this is who we have to live with, to negotiate with. And what did it all start with?
I'm sorry to say it out loud: religion.
The same religion that throughout the ages has caused so much misfortune wherever it has gone. What need did we have to make Islam travel from Arabia to the borders of France?
But no, just like Christianity before it, Islam had to spread the good news. Therefore, we advise all those who will be on our way to lend themselves to our good will, because we possess the truth.

And what truth?
In the course of history, all of us have closed our eyes to this blindness.
Just look at Spain in the 15th and 16th centuries, where kings, supported by popes, in the name of the sacred religion, decimated a people.

Yes, history repeats itself and nobody learns.
Where is our intelligence? I wonder if it ever existed, since we have committed so many crimes against humanity. But we must believe that we have changed, because we are rising up against these crimes.
Not long ago, the West was astonished to see the Taliban destroying Buddhist statues that are more than a thousand years old. This treasure belongs to humanity, why let it be destroyed? But no, we turn our heads and let them do it. It seems that blindness is no longer a one-way street.
Who is running our world? Is it not common sense?

Some would say the twenty-five largest mega-nationals. But they don't interfere in the misfortunes that befall us... As long as they are running, everything is fine in the best of worlds, as Candide would say. But these days, some of them might hit a bone. And if that happens, they will have only themselves to pity.
How is religion taught? The whole base should be there. If not at home, then at school, church, synagogue or madrassa.
Our teachers should be brilliant in instilling in us a way of life according to our religion. However, if today we find ourselves in the presence of people who have learned the wrong way, whose teaching has been confused, whose fault is it?

The new wave of teachers is the kind of preachers on the radio or TV who harangue us with their fine words, who tell us: "Do what I tell you, not what I do".
So we are facing a problem that we have set up because of our lack of discernment. It is unfortunate, the evil is there, it is in us and we have a lot of difficulties to get out of it.
How to get out of it? We learn at an early age that one of the most beautiful virtues is tolerance. I recognize this, but how many of us respect this virtue?
Racism continues to rage. We see it every day in all its forms and how many of us complain about it, if not the victims themselves.
This is the kind of course that should be taught in school and later in university.
Yes, I claim that this word virtue, which politicians harp on right and left to earn our vote, is so elaborate that we would only talk about football and beer.
In order to avoid blindness, tolerance is not the only virtue, there are also others necessary for our society: loyalty, magnanimity, benevolence. To this I could add hospitality, humility. Wouldn't the implementation of all these beautiful things make the universe so happy? And why not? Don't we deserve it?
Yes, but...
It is time to move away from the chimeras of sophists and the illusions of false prophets. Shouldn't the love of our neighbor be "our religion"? May the light of the sun illuminate our eyes and guide us in our actions.
