[Secular Koranism]

Christianity is idolatry and blasphemy.

It is the idolatry of worshiping an executed blasphemer as the co-equal of the God of Israel who is also Allah.  

Christianity is also the weakest link since it let in liberalism, and liberalism means nothing more in the 21st century than sexual liberation from the rules of marriage and good parenting.  

The West is therefore now a matriarchy - a society prioritising the preferences of unmarried parents who casually conceived and parented their illegitimate offspring.

Any healthy, rational and moral society would be a patriarchy - a society prioritising the preferences of married parents who want to properly parent their legitimate offspring.  

Quite simply, patriarchy is eugenic and matriarchy dysgenic.

Actually, only the Torah and the Koran are claimed to be from God.

In any conflict between a patriarchy and a matriarchy, the former will always triumph.

Patriarchy is a society that at least trying to be guided by Truth, Logic and Morality while a matriarchy just wallows in lies, nonsense and immorality.

There is probably no God and Claire Khaw is his prophet.

[Secular Koranism]

A Hypothetical Supreme Authority certainly exists and Claire Khaw is its proponent.

[Secular Koranism]

Jews were made God’s Chosen People to be light unto nations lighting the way of gentiles towards Islam and away from the idolatry and blasphemy of Christianity. Christianity is idolatry because it worships a man. It is also blasphemy because it worships a man convicted of blasphemy then crucified for it.

If only Orthodox rabbis would rank the four gentile religions according to their conformity with the Noahide laws with Islam the most and Christianity the least Noahide. Once this is done, Westerners will be closer to renouncing nearly 2000 years of idolatry and blasphemy.

If God exists, Christianity would be cursed by God because of its idolatry and blasphemy. He would also be disappointed with Jews and Muslims for not challenging the idolatry and blasphemy of Christianity. Fortunately, it is not too late to do so jointly so Christians understand as soon as possible that idolatry and blasphemy has been forbidden by God and that they are outnumbered and outgunned.

[Secular Koranism]

The problem with Christianity is its idolatry and blasphemy, if you care about this sort of thing. You would only care about that sort of thing if you took the prohibition against the Ten Commandments seriously. But why wouldn't you take the Ten Commandments seriously if you have incorporated it into your Christian Bible?  

If you took the Ten Commandments seriously, you would see that they forbid amongst other things idolatry and blasphemy.  

If idolatry is the worship of anything that isn't God, how is Jesus God, as the Doctrine of the Trinity requires Christians to believe? To this we have had no satisfactory answer.

If Christianity is indeed idolatry and blasphemy, then God would curse Christians for their idolatry and blasphemy, if He exists.  

If God does not exist, what would be the harm of idolatry and blasphemy?

The harm of idolatry, I would suggest, is the opportunity of being rightly guided by the Koran.

[Secular Koranism]

The Council of Nicaea was divided between Arians and Trinitarians with Constantine on the side of the Arians who believed Jesus was divine but not of co-equal status with the Abrahamic God who created the Universe.  

The Trinitarians felt it necessary to make Jesus the co-equal of the God of Israel who is also Allah, presumably in anticipation of theological arguments with Jews who would claim that the God of Israel who created the Universe was obviously more powerful than the crucified Christ convicted of blasphemy.

It was not until 380 that the Edict of Thessalonica declared that only Trinitarian Christianity would be allowed. Since the Trinitarian Catholic, Anglican and Orthodox Church are the most powerful churches in the world, it could be argued that the Trinity has worked up to a point.

However, since Christendom has been widely reported to have been superseded by liberalism, Christianity is arguably extinct.

The only people who have the right to call themselves Christian are those who have undergone a confirmation ceremony or credal baptism. Infant baptism does not count because the infant cannot reasonably be said to have understood the nature and purpose of its baptism. However, the numbers of these Christians have shrunk so significantly that the figures are not easily obtainable. One suspects the percentage must be less than 10% of the total adult population.  

In any case, no theologian will be able to agree on what Christian principles are other than of worshiping an executed blasphemer as the co-equal of the God of Israel who is also Allah.  

What should be taken seriously is the possibility of God's existence and how angry He must be with Christians and Post-Christians for the flouting of His Commandments.

To believe Jesus is alive is to believe he is immortal.

To believe he is immortal is to believe he is divine.

To believe he is divine is to be guilty of idolatry.

That would be idolatry!

[R.C. Christian]

Modern rationalism and ancient symbolic thinking don't mix well.

Christians worship a man, and a man is not God.

Idolatry is the worship of anything that isn't God.

[Secular Koranism]

When you say "ancient symbolic thinking", do you mean the Trinity?
