Boycotting the Fruit of the Infidel Mind
To the Muslims of the world, who have participated in, or endorse by their silence, the protests concerning the cartoons depicting Muhammed bin Abdullah, and who are engaging in the boycott of Danish goods, this is an appeal from the heart: Please, please demonstrate your rationality and capacity for logical consistency. After all, it is this capacity for rationality, together with the refusal to fall into the inconsistency of a double standard of morality, which separates us humans both from animals, and your average bully, despot, tyrant and psychopath.
Therefore, all the fruits of the enquiring human mind, (which accepts no authority beyond what can be proven by rational means to be true) should also be boycotted. So Muslims of the world, unite and boycott western goods invented and developed by the infidel mind - for example, no more flying in aeroplanes - try instead to locate that horse with the face of a woman, which you believe, Muhammad bin Abdullah used to visit, his 7th layer of heaven. No more microwaves and gas cookers and air conditioners - use the heat of firewood, and hand held fans - they were good enough for your Prophet, and his Allah in His Infinite Wisdom, did not think otherwise. You don’t like images of the human form? No more TV, DVD’s and whatnots. No more phones and cameras too. Cars, motorbikes, bicycles - why do you use them when your Allah’s Prophet got by on camels? Even in emergency situations, when he was battling the infidels of that time, he did not call for a Ferrari car to get him out of trouble, or machine guns to see to the Kaffirs. Newspapers and the internet for the dissemination of facts, ideas, and information and opinion? Well, your Prophet and his God found writing on bones, leaves and bits of parchment good enough. Finally, to the rich Muslim intellectuals and other such elites, don’t come to the West for medical treatments using the latest infra scan and phamaceutical developments - instead, stick to black mustard seeds as recommended for all maladies by your esteemed and learned Prophet.
In the name not of beneficence or mercy but in the name of the defining characteristic of homo sapiens, demonstrate your rationality and capacity for logical consistency.
If you find that you can’t live very well without the material fruit of infidel minds then please, do not have tantrums and issue threats concerning their moral, spiritual and aesthetic sensibilities either. Instead, that time could be used more wisely, to ponder on why, for centuries, Muslim minds have contributed virtually nothing to Humanity’s progress.

Yes indeed! Why don't they just boycott them all?

Is this possible?
Your article is excellent and incisive. I'd like to read more of your work.
Yes it's curious to hear of Immams and other Islamic leaders flying around the world to attend Islamic conferences on state-of-the-art airliners and no doubt using cellphones and other technology that their own religion and culture is incapable of producing. Yet this seems to be no problem for them. I really struggle to understand their thinking processes.

They're PARASITES!
This is part of the bitterness. It has to be hard to be told everyday, day in and day out, Islam is the solution to everything yet they see it is not in their everyday lives. Reformation of Islam is damn near impossible. There are so few verses to build upon, and the few that could be used are often recognized as abrogated. It's a real problem.
John:
The very idea of a reformation occurring in Islam is laughable! There will NEVER be a reformation in that religion. How could there be? The words in the Qur'an are said to be Allah's actual words; so they are always taken literally. There is therefore little room for a re-interpretation.
In Christianity, the whole thing is different. The Bible is considered to be inspired by God. The words in the Bible are not God's actual words, so they are generally not taken literally (except by a cranky fringe element). Therefore the path ahead for Christians was clear for them to re-interpret the faith, which in turn led to the Reformation.
It would be unwise to hold one's breath for a reformation in Islam!
Bld:
You can't! It's as simple as that!
