SWEDEN: SD POLITICIAN CAUSES COMMOTION AFTER ”RELIGION OF PEACE SHOWS ITS FACE” COMMENT……..

Faux humanitarian Swedes in an uproar. (or at least a portion of them)

Devout Muslims carrying out the usual punishment (death) for ”offending” Islam, followed by devout multicultural driven Swedes wanting to punish a politician for speaking his mind on what he sees as the obvious truth.

“It’s not legal to offend people based on their race, and I think this should be treated as racial agitation,” she told the paper.

Groan. Islam is no more a ”race” than Christianity or the Republican Party is.

UPDATED: A spokesman for the Sweden Democrats has told The Local that “it is not a serious matter” that a senior party member wrote “the religion of peace shows its face” on his Facebook page directly after the fatal Paris shootings.

Björn Söder, who is also a Deputy Speaker in the Swedish parliament, wrote the comment on Facebook after 12 people were killed in the Charlie Hedbo offices in Paris earlier this week.

On Friday morning, the Dagens Nyheter newspaper reported that Swedish MP Veronica Palm of Prime Minister Stefan Löfven’s Social Democrat party had reported Söder to the police for racial agitation (hets mot folkgrupp).

“It’s not legal to offend people based on their race, and I think this should be treated as racial agitation,” she told the paper.

Others have also chimed in on the Facebook post, including political scientist Olof Ruin, who said it was “an embarrassment for Sweden”.

While Söder’s initial comment read “the religion of peace shows its face”, Dagens Nyheter said he then edited the post to add a question mark at the end and later deleted it.

“As far as I know there was always a question mark after the post,” Sweden Democrat press spokesman Henrik Vinge told The Local on Friday afternoon.

53. The Special Rapporteur also reiterates his concern in relation to
anti-blasphemy laws, which are inherently vague and leave the entire concept open
to abuse. He wishes to underscore once again that international human rights law protects individuals and not abstract concepts such as religion, belief systems or
institutions, as also affirmed by the Human Rights Committee (CCPR/C/GC/34,
para. 48).

“…“It’s not legal to offend people based on their race, and I think this should be treated as racial agitation,” she told the paper….”

There should be some sort of vetting process for politicians – apart from wins at the polls. Candidates should have sufficient intelligence to represent the peope who elect them.

Can someone get it through to these idiots , for the 1000th time, that muslims are not a race???

There’s No Common Cultural Legacy For The Alt-Right

Still, is there something to it? Is there a common heritage that will cover El Greco and Hume and Dostoyevsky? Is there one that can include the Jacobites and the Jacobins? There is, but it is not racial, and white supremacists reject it because it rejects them. The unifying heritage of Europe is religious and philosophical. It is Jerusalem and Athens, in one famous formulation. Christian religion and Greek philosophy, filtered through Roman law and culture, are the foundation of European culture. The tensions, agreements, developments and settlements between these have shaped the Western world, and these roots of Western civilization are not congenial to white supremacy.

Christianity is universal in its message and Jewish in its origins. For centuries after its founding, Christianity’s center was the Mediterranean world, including Asia Minor and North Africa. Christianity has never been defined by race, and locally-grown racist heresies are only sustainable among those ignorant of Christianity’s teachings, origins and history.

Greek philosophy is likewise ill-suited to serve as a basis for white identity. It is either too universal (addressing the human condition in general) or too local—none of us live as citizens of an ancient Greek polis. Later philosophical developments in Europe, such as the philosophies of the Enlightenment, likewise tend to be too universal for white supremacists seeking a tribal identity. As for the scientific revolution that developed within Western culture (albeit with much borrowed from outside Europe), math doesn’t care what color someone is.

"More here"

War is being waged against Western culture from within which is in essence a war against Christianity and its moral origins in the Hebrew Bible. By attacking these Biblical foundations in the name of reason and human rights, the culture warriors of secularism are sawing off the branch on which they sit. The only way to defend Western civilisation is to reaffirm and restore its Biblical foundations. My argument is a development of ideas I first explored in my 2012 book The World Turned Upside Down: The Global Battle over God, Truth and Power.

We are living in an era which extols reason, science and human rights. These are said to be essential for progress, a civilised society and the betterment of humanity. Religion is said to be their antithesis, the source instead of superstitious mumbo-jumbo, oppression and backward-thinking.

Some of this hostility is being driven by the perceived threat from Islamic terrorism and the Islamisation of Western culture. However, this animus against religion has far deeper roots and can be traced back to what is considered the birthplace of Western reason, the 18th-century Enlightenment.

Actually, it goes back specifically to the French Enlightenment. In England and Scotland, the Enlightenment developed reason and political liberty within the framework of Biblical belief. In France, by contrast, anti-clericalism morphed into fundamental hostility to Christianity and to religion itself.

“Ecrasez l’infame,” said Voltaire (crush infamy) — the infamy to which he referred being not just the Church but Christianity, which he wanted to replace with the religion of reason, virtue and liberty, “drawn from the bosom of nature”.

Perfecting society

But this Enlightenment did not remove religion so much as pervert it. It took millenarian fantasies, the idea that the perfection of the world was at hand, and it secularised them. Instead of God producing heaven on earth, it would be mankind which would bring that about. Reason would create the perfect society and “progress” was the process by which utopia would be attained.
