Are Jews and Muslims doing what they are supposed to be doing for the gentile non-Muslim?

Prophets are givers of unwanted advice to nations, empires and entire civilisations and are sometimes imprisoned and executed for their efforts. Shall I aspire to be an prophetess or am I already one? If my success as a prophetess is uncertain, let there be no mistake that this is what I intend.

My message is simple: it is not too late to repent, even after 2000 years of idolatry.

The fact that God has not yet zapped the West after 2000 years of idolatry is evidence of His patience, but it is not inexhaustible.

It should have been obviously long ago that worshipping an executed revolutionary as the co-equal of God is ipso facto idolatry, and idolatry has been specifically and explicitly forbidden by the Abrahamic God Christians claim to worship in His Commandments.

That Christians claim to worship the Abrahamic God while blatantly practising the idolatry He has forbidden is one of the infamous exhibitions of doublethink and pious hypocrisy.

If Jews are indeed light of the nations and Muslims indeed those who enjoin good and forbid evil, they would have issued their joint statement denouncing the idolatry of Christianity as soon as it became possible to do so without being burned at the stake.

Since the danger of this happening has receded through the centuries, the time for doing this is now ripe. There is therefore now no excuse for the cowardice of Jews and Muslims.

I have in mind Rabbi Sacks and Tim Winter AKA Abdal Hakim Murad holding a press conference to this effect.

It only has to be pointed out that Christianity is less in conformity with the Noahide laws because of its idolatry than Islam (which more than satisfies its minimum moral standards because it does not fall foul of the Commandment against idolatry). When this is finally made clear and understood, the way to the right path will become clear.

The Prophets of God could have been atheists like me


God is a creation of Man for the purpose of serving as an instrument of government to assist him in his politics, morality and spirituality.

It is quite possible to argue that none of the Prophets of God in fact believed in the actual existence of a living God, and only had the same motivation as parents who make their children believe in Santa.  That motivation is to incentivize better behaviour than might otherwise be shown without a belief in Santa or God.

"Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion." George Washington  

The purpose of Judaism is to demonstrate the superiority of a people who created God and who do what their God commands, even if that God does not promise a heaven or threaten a hell in the afterlife.   (If that is the case then I am at heart a Jew.)

It was the purpose of Christianity to spread the benefits of a unique and omnipotent God to those who are not born Jews and would not wish to convert.  Unfortunately, they did this by means of insisting on their totalitarian doctrine that one must believe in the divinity of Christ to be a Christian, or else go to hell.  (If that is the case then I am at heart a Christian who wishes non-Jews to enjoy the benefits of believing in an omnipotent perfect God that the Jews created for the benefit of Jews.)

The purpose of Islam is to synthesise the previous two religions by making it easier to practice and easier to understand through the means of one book said to be the direct revealed Word of God, which its adherents are meant to consult as often as they can.  To be a Muslim, all one need do is to declare that one submits to  God and affirm that Muhammad was His prophet.

If you understand the concept of a unique and omnipotent God, then you would have to accept the inexorable logic that there cannot be other gods but God, because, being omnipotent, He would not suffer them to exist to be His rivals.

God, if He exists, would embody Truth, Reason and Reality, all of which I am perfectly happy to submit to.

I have no difficulty agreeing with Muslims that Muhammad is a Prophet of Islam either.

There is no god but God, and Muhammad is the messenger of God.
