Vicious crimes and refugee crisis raise questions about Islam in practice

The Paris attacks, recent stoning of women, enslavement and rape of children, should force us to ask deep questions about the Muslim faith in practice.

As explained in a recent Irish Examiner article, the Koran can be read to support all of the above.

Is it possible that the infusion of refugees is part of a plan to populate Europe with people of these teachings?

Why wouldn’t these refugees turn to Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Jordan, Dubai and all other more affluent nearby countries that share their Muslim ethos.

Shouldn’t we in Europe ask for the help of the countries named above to house and aid the refugees who are turning to us for aid?

Where are the Muslim charities?

Do they practice charity as we know it, if so how and where? While some argue that Christianity once practiced cruelty wholesale, we have evolved.

We believe in equality in the sight of God, education, the value of the rule of law, respect for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

This is the foundation of law in Europe.

Is that why the refugees come to us and not to their brothers in the countries and others named above?
