Pardon my French

By Mehrnaz Hofferth

This piece is in criticism of Islam. The reader doesn’t have to read further if offended by such notions.

The myth is that there are particular rules of cleanliness in Islam; head covering is a must, prayers are required, killing of farm animals for food have particular rules, etc. . None of which is true. Unfortunately, the facts are far more horrific. To an untrained ear, these may seem fantastical. Clearly, this piece should not be thought of as a reason to join any religion or cult, as I personally find such ways of life unprincipled and wrong. It would be immature to root for beliefs such as Islam or any other cult, regardless of their popularity or dominance.

These are the facts; the Islam tribe can wash with the purest liquid that is drinkable. If the purest liquid available is pure water, then washing with as much of the water that is available after having enough to drink from would be a rule. The bathing is done without using soap, or touching skin, or sitting in a bath tub. Clean disposable towelette dipped in the same pure drinkable liquid may substitute washing.

They don’t get close to any one except members of the islam tribe who have the same cleaning and cooking habits. One person in a Islam tribe cooks without touching or tasting the food. The cooking is done in a pot over heat with a minimum steam coming out of the pot. Frying pan and pressure cooker are not allowed, because they release too much steam. Stirring the pan is minimal and done with long stirring spoons without hand or face over the pot. The clothes are washed the same way as body, then thrown into trash when showing signs of wear.

All members of the tribe sleep in the same quarters, and if some are passed puberty, then any sexual activity between them is permitted without an explanation. There is no obligation to tell the truth to the outsiders of the tribe, or be honest and fair, or to show kindness, identity or civility to the outsiders. An Islam tribe have any job or function or lie about such, to keep their dominance.

Women of Islam tribe are not obligated to cover their head, in fact they can dance seductively, wear makeup, and flirt with the outsiders as long as no touching takes place. The outsiders are thought of by the tribe as sub-human and dirty. Any acts of familiarity, even shaking hands by the non-tribe would be followed by a period of cleansing and separation by the tribe member. Retaliation, revenge and brutality is certainly to be committed against the non-tribe who shook hand. Submission of the non-tribe is done through any means. The Islam tribe breaks an outsider, never recognizing his or her rights. Such crimes go unpunished because of Islam tribe’s reputation of brutality and revenge. Emotional and physical abuse would follow indefinitely for as long as the tribe members want, and mind you without telling the non-tribe of their intended ill will. Those non-tribes who try to keep to themselves are abused by the false notions of money and finances.

People of the Islam tribe have no reason to turn against itself, because they are born into it, and do as they please as long as they do their rules of washing and cooking. The actions of the tribe toward the outsiders includes rape, murder, insult, humiliation, intrusion, stalking, devaluing and theft. Tribe members are allowed to commit suicide, or be killed by their own members if they’ve fallen into the hands of the outsiders and have not yet committed suicide.

All the different sects and names and factions are a myth. In fact even the name Islam, im my personal opinion, most likely is given to them by the outsiders. The islam tribe behavior if seen may be recognizable, but not their names, race, declared religion, nationality, geographical location, body shapes, colors nor their attire. Arabic is an esoteric language and a true translation of their holy books are not available to the outsiders despite all the pretenses to the contrary.

If a person has been at the receiving end of any type of abuse during their life time, they are not one of the Islam tribe. The Islam tribe is about exclusivity and separation. Their only interactions with the outsiders are by committing theft, bodily crimes and psychological torture.

Beside the horrific presence of their tribe in the world, there are other challenges. One should not assume that the Islam tribe are in the minority nor that they need help and consolation from outsiders.
