A dog that represents whiteness



This is a Japanese breed of dog, but I feel it represents whiteness. I want to show my care and concern for white people having their history and traditions, heritage and statues being torn down. White people are not all bad, you know. Will I be condemned by the anti-racists just for saying white people are not all bad, just as they were condemned for saying "It's OK to be white"?

Why won't white people point out that black people have not been the only people enslaved? It was a convention of war for victors to take slaves of the countries they have defeated. This was how Ancient Greece and Rome operated. Indeed, black people often enslaved each other. The other thing to remember is that neither the Bible nor the Koran command the abolition of slavery. Indeed, the Koran says we should not allow what God has forbidden nor forbid what God has allowed. God if He exists has not forbidden slavery.

Perhaps it should be acknowledged that the British only wanted to abolish the slave trade after it acquired control of the seas and secured the transport of peoples hither and thither. It was the Spanish whose empire was first said to be "the empire on which the sun never sets". el imperio donde nunca se pone el sol

The Napoleonic invasion of the Iberian peninsula precipitated the Spanish American wars of independence (1808–1826), resulting in the loss of its most valuable colonies. The Americans would not have won these wars if it had not been for the War of American Unification the Americans choose to call their American Civil War. That was the beginning of WASP supremacy.

I am saddened that we are no longer allowed to see Gone With The Wind, whatever our race.

What has happened to white people has shown how dangerous it is to have no principles and to have unprincipled politicians steering the ship of state who, being unprincipled, will not defend any principle. I really think Secular Koranism would be the new legal system capable of ensuring social and gender justice, and I will defend any principle contained within it. Because Secular Koranism follows the Koran - and the Koran does not forbid slavery though it forbids usury - I will be defending everything in the Koran that I find morally and intellectually defensible in the hope of showing the way forward to a New Settlement for the West, for all its citizens of whatever race or religion. 

Black activists like Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali saw that Christianity made unquestioning slaves of us all. Some nationalists I know have converted to Islam in the hope of escaping from the degeneracy of globohomo. It is my belief and hope that Secular Koranism will be the Goldilocks political ideology that men and women, rich and poor, young and old, Jew and gentile as well as black and non-black, whether or not you believe in God can all support to give Western nations the stability they need to emerge from the economic and social damage they have been inflicting on themselves.

Robert Edwards calls me "an Enemy of Islam"

Robert Edwards who runs  http://www.europeanaction.com/ (and is a White Muslim Nationalist probably in the same way that Muhammad Ali was Nation of Islam) says of me at http://www.democracyforum.co.uk/bnp/81894-new-leader-british-nationalism-10.html

"With all due respects to your friend, but Islam can not be 'secularised' which means divested of its essential uniqueness as a religion. Such attempts are called 'the American Islam' and it is universally condemned. The next thing, they would want to turn Mecca into a Disneyland and serve hot dawgs there.

She is wrong and is, in fact, an enemy of Islam. Islam can not be taken over by atheists. Atheists are enemies of Islam.

The reason why Islam can not, indeed, will not be secularised or 'reformed' is that it is based irrevocably and unalteringly on the inspired words in the Holy Qur'an and the sayings of the prophet Mohammed (pbuh) in the hadith.

You can not change that. You can discuss it, interpret it, but you can not change that.  The woman is misguided."

I wonder what he means by "American Islam".

I hope Robert Edwards is aware of the existence of Koran-only Muslims or Koranists - these are people who wish to excise the unIslamic cultural accretions of the practices of people who also happen to call themselves Muslim.

I would say what I propose to do is analogous to cleaning a painting with centuries of accumulated grime to make it fit to be exhibition to the general public.

I suggest that he reads Defenders of Reason In Islam: Mu'tazilism and Rational Theology from Medieval School to Modern Symbol

It is quite dull and does not quite dare to go as far as I do in the point it makes, which is to reject everything in the Hadith that contradicts the Koran and allow it to be interpreted afresh in every age and in every nation thinking of following its guidance.  

Belief in God is not necessary, one only has to agree that the Koran is a good enough guide for mankind, whether or not one believes in the actual existence of a Living God.

To come to the conclusion that the Koran is indeed a good enough guide for mankind (or even disagree with this conclusion) one must of course begin by reading the Koran - something many cannot make themselves do, either because their  literacy skills are too low or they are so blinded by  hatred and fear that they refuse to contemplate doing any such thing.


The Secular Koranist would of course ignore all the verses in the Koran that threaten hell and promise heaven (because the Secularist would not believe in the existence of God, heaven or hell beyond mere concepts), while considering the morality and practicability of only the command verses, ie those that exhort us to do something or refrain from doing something.


If anything is still unclear all people have to do is ask!
