Just wondering

How often, and where, has the Muslim population of a Muslim country been the origin of, or the popular or governmental engine behind, a movement to grant actual and enforced –as opposed to merely paper--equal status to non-Muslims and non-Muslim religions?

Excluded are countries where a Western colonial regime enforced a secular legal code still largely in effect.

Sura 9:29 - "Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah until they pay the tribute (the Jizya) readily, being brought low."

Sura 4:11 - "Allah chargeth you concerning (the provision for) your children: to the male the equivalent of the portion of two females."; 3:58 PM, September 10, 2011

Toward Our Future

What the sons of Europa need is a new religion: one that is as tribal, portable and survivalist as Judaism, as masculine, terrestrial and tough as Islam and as intellectually and aesthetically creative as Christianity...with a dose of the unflinching realism of the ancestral ways of the Greeks and Romans, Germans and Celts and Slavs..And for the larger Indo-European frame, something of the Indian capacity to combine an ultimate and philosophical realization of The One with a robustly mytho-poetic religion on-the-ground. Oh, and some of the psychological acumen of Buddhism.

Liberalism's Basic Flaw

Liberals believe that the chief role of the State is to force everyone to be equal, (ie, take vengeance on the successful). So when they are confronted with any group that they deem less well off than themselves, they are morally disarmed, completely and utterly. Any group that can achieve Victim Status is on their way to power and the (White) liberal's only job is to give them what they want, no matter how much that damages him. And nothing may ever be expected, much less demanded, of them in return. It's a recipe for suicide: no other outcome is possible.
