Killing the Golden Goose
15th July 2009
Why Islam is doomed to failure.
Islam acts as an ESS by a variety of behaviors:
- Demanding the death of those who attempt to leave it.
- Declaring its core scripture (its DNA, if you will) perfect, immutable, and unquestionably correct.
- Requiring its adherents to marry within the system and have as little contact as possible with outsiders.
- Mandating coercive proselytization, through violence if necessary, in order to enlarge the system.
This creates a kind of homeostasis within the Ummah, which can thus remain unchanged as long as its environment stays the same.
However, because the system is parasitic — it produces no wealth, but depends on booty, slave labor, and tribute to maintain itself — the environment must eventually change. When the host dies, so does the parasite. The ESS fails, and Islam reaches a dead end.
Neither Muslims nor Leftists understands the psychology of achievement and inevitably kill the golden goose, ending up with a dismal standard of living for all but a small elite wherever Muslim or Leftist ideas predominate. They’re like evil children who destroy the things they have no idea how to build or repair.
