[quote=So Boerd] Sarcasm still illustrates a point. My point is that the impact of colonialism is totally overblown. [/quote] While it may be overblown you cant deny the large impact it has had on the world. [quote=The Nexerus] Christianity preaches to give unto God what is God's and onto Caesar what is Caesar's. Islam has specific legal and political guidelines for how society is to be governed, and is much more socially and behaviourally pervasive than Christianity (and most other religions in general). [/quote] That still does not make it a ideology but a religion telling us how to live our lives. Hmm... Not so different to every other religion...
