European "values"

[Teutone]

How can European values be held up in high esteem when its based on blasphemy.

When the Charlie Hebdo or the teacher faced the consequences of vulgar blasphemy, I saw even disgusting enough "christian European nationalist" stand up for vulgar blasphemy, a civilization that stands for this is worth nothing but we can gladly witness how its a dying civilization, well earned.

A normal person respects religious (not cultist) believes of other and should have respect when criticizing another faith.

Is there really a difference of nature between cult and religion? And is it accurate to designate Islam as a “religion”, as a “faith”?

There’s no equivalent of our word “religion” in Arabic, in which the word defining Islam is "dîn". It’s a concept referring to a project controlling every aspect of the society (until the way to wipe your arse), a complete socio-political system.

Europeans are not religious, they are cultural. European religions are incorporated in cultures, thus you can't accuse them of blasphemy. You can accuse them of insulting other people and other cultures, but not of blasphemy. It is totally impossible to understand by most Europeans and blasphemy is a Muslim projection.
This misconception explains problems we see now.

Europeans generally believe in free speech and science, at least more than most other peoples do. All the same, in the English-speaking countries, it is really paradoxical how we put an inordinate amount of emphasis on "respecting other cultures", no matter how illiberal, superstitious and reactionary, yet when it comes to learning/speaking other languages we tend to be incredibly disrespectful. Anglo expats living in the Gulf Arab countries, for example, are expected to obey Sharia but few learn Arabic. I say that they should learn Arabic but ignore Sharia.

I believe self-criticism is a specifically European/Western ability. There are transcendental norms available in everyone's consciousness, constituting the natural law and I believe this concept, which is fundamental in Christianity, fed the great curiosity Westerners have had towards other civilisations and is highly responsible for their high ability for self-criticism. It’s very important in order to develop yourself and a civilisation, but it may also lead to a drift towards a despicable Masochism.
