Muslims are trying to suppress other religions and even other customs
and civilizations because they are dominated by a Metaphysical
Certainty. This certainty produces a totalitarian mindset where the
public and private life are subdued to it. Islam is a linguistic
phenomenon, it is a monster of the reason which is phagocytizing all
other forms of culture because of its totalitarian will to conquer the
world.

What follows is a post of mines on the importance of the Uncertainty
for the freedom.

---------------------------

There is one important difference between the democracies and the
dictatorships.

Usually, dictatoships are based on a principle which is considered
true and it is compulsory. Examples of these principles are
the existence of a god who said to kill unbelievers, the existence of
a superior race, the existence of a struggle of class, etc. The main
characteristics of these "Truths" is not that they are really true,
but that they are obligatory. So, if you do not believe in the
superiority of the arian race or the need to fight the bourgeois or in
Allah and his prophet, you risks your own life. Also if you change of
field, you risk your own life. From these "Thruts" result ethical
regimes which define the scope of the State and even of your life.
They also define the opinions, the laws, the customs and what each man
has to do in any moment of the day.

On the contrary, the democracies lack of such a principle. In fact,
the ancient Greeks understood that with the gods you can explain
everything, but these explanations are useless for any forecast. So,
they decided to explain the natural events with natural factors. They
also distinguished between science and opinion and they considered the
faith as an opinion. Kant also distinguished between what we are
allowed to know and what we cannot know: we can know what falls under
our senses and we cannot know the essence of things. So, although men
can perfect their methods and their instruments of research they can
know more and more closer the reality without never be able to know
its essence.

So, until proved otherwise, it does not exist any Metaphysical Truth
from which derive the ethics and the praxis. As a consequence, the
State lacks of any certainty on which organize its activities and
those of its citizens. So everybody is let free to look for his own
way, to pursue the purposes he believes is more important or right and
from there arises a wide diversity of opinions and of behaviours.

Then, the metaphysical uncertainty is the secret of the free and
democratic societies. It is only by recognizing the value of this
cultural condition that you can understand the free organization of
our societies, the diversity of the opinions, the research of an
equilibrium of the powers in the institutions, the aversion to the
totalitarian systems, the difference of the preferences, of the
attitudes and of the behaviours of the citizens of the open societies,
the richness of their culture, their opening towards the novelties and
of ideas, etc.

This secret is clearer if you confront it with its opposite: the
Metaphysical Certainty, the Revealed Truth, the Ideological Truth,
those compulsory truths which invade the whole public and private
space even in all their hidden places and intimacy, which produce
ethical States always devoted to the conquest of the world and which
suffocate the existences forcing them between militancy and fanatism.
These regimes caused a lot of useless violences and of suffrances.

On the contrary, the open societies base themselves on the classical
heritage as for the freedom and the laicism and on the christian
message of love as for the social solidarity.

It is here that the forms of free thought, the need to better know
themselwes and the wealth of opportunities of expression which the fee
societies offer to their citizen meet.

Unfortunately, the close culture typical of the ideologies and of
certain religions keep their followers in a condition of deep
ignorance and fanaticism by forcing them to believe in pure
stupidities by means of brain washing and threats. Muslims should
understand that until they do not rebel to their clergy, they always
will live in the middleages, in poverty and in misery.
