The world is rapidly crumbling under the combined political, economic, and religious assaults. Politically, nations are at each other’s jugulars. Economically, there are more people than humanity can adequately feed, house, and care for. Our numbers keep on exploding, while resources of all sorts are depleting, the environment degrading, and other life forms are being pushed toward extinction.

To exacerbate the problem, humanity’s genius is needed for addressing its monumental challenges and severely sapped by the religious menace of Islamism.

Let’s trust the ever-untrustworthy, self-serving politicians to deal with the political conundrum. In other words, in their for-sale-hands they are bound to make matters politically worse.

And the effete academes can sit in their ivory tower offices; smoke their pipes, and divine good as gold solutions (read, hallucinations) to the morass of the economy.

On the religious front, we are faced with the corrosive and deadly menace of Islamism. This is a subject of great concern to me and I have specific suggestions on how to deal with this ever-expanding threat to our personal and collective liberty.

Several million Muslims live in this welcoming land. Muslims are everywhere. How are we to deal with them? Let’s, right at the start, abandon some of the idiotic proposals that pop up from time to time. Deport the Muslims, herd them into concentration camps since they are enemies of the nation, and brand them like the dastardly murdering Nazis did the Jews. And on and on and on.

President Obama keeps saying that we are not at war with Islam. I say we are not at war with Muslims in general. We are, however, at war with Islamists who pick and choose selectively from the Quran to promote their hideous agenda. While the Islamists use the parts of their holy book that suits them, we, defenders of liberty, adhere to every word of the Bill of Rights and the United States constitution in the battle against Islamic tyranny.

Those Muslims who are citizens are entitled to live here and enjoy the beneficence of this great country to the fullest of a citizen’s rights. At the same time, we have every right and even a responsibility to be concerned about the danger of Islamism to our way of life, a way of free people to live peacefully and respectfully with one another without in any way posing threats to the fundamental ideals that birthed this nation and sustained it to the present.

Muslims are not our enemies. Islamism is. Below are some specific suggestions on how to defeat Islamism at home.

Don’t Kill the Patient, Eradicate the Disease

A Muslim is the patient. Islamism is the disease. The overwhelming majority of Muslims contract the virus of Islamism at an early age when they are most vulnerable. Once this virus takes hold, it either completely destroys the individual’s cognitive immune system’s ability to reject the disease, or makes it most difficult for the person to see the pathology. That’s why the great majority of babies born to Muslim families remain Muslim for life. It is also a fact that a significant percentage of Muslims contract the virulent form of the belief, Islamism. Islamism is jihadist, intolerant of the “otherâ€
