As Islamism Fades, Iran Goes Nationalist

Islam is going to vanish fro whole world except in India and Indonesia as per one study. I see this beginning with Iran. Islam shall be a history in Iran in next two decades.

Given the way extremist mentality goes.
Yes, that is true.

However, Islam has a place in the future in the hearts and minds of those sane people.

Until people embrace it on a personal and un-intrusive level. Learn to co-exist with the world.

Extremism will do more harm than save it.

Forty years after the 1979 revolution, Islamism is exhausting itself as a legitimizing force for the Islamic Republic of Iran. Studies sponsored by the Iranian government show that resentment toward the state’s religious symbols is at an all-time high.

According to the research arm of the Iranian parliament, around 70 percent of Iranian women do not strictly follow the official diktats for wearing a veil. Anticlerical sentiments have turned violent. Regardless of their ties to the government, clerics are routinely attacked and stabbed in the streets by angry anti-regime individuals.

Iran is responding by cautiously downplaying Islamism and emphasizing nationalism and foreign threats to win over disgruntled citizens. Iran’s leaders acknowledged the societal shift away from Islamism by making unprecedented references to nationalism and showing their determination to incorporate patriotic sentiments into the state ideology during the 40th anniversary celebrations of the revolution in February.

Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has repeatedly appealed to Iranians to back the government, even if they do not endorse its Islamist ideology, for the sake of their country and for their own security.

What is Islamism?

Islam equals extremist mentality?

If muslims like you speak like this we are in trouble.

As if you're not right now? Have you looked around the Muslim world? Muslim societies are some of the most backward, brutal and helpless societies out there. Muslims form the most refugees around the world... I can go on and on... but I think people get the point.

The problem is very deep... It goes back to the very beginning...

Are most Iranians like you?

So what do you want to g back to?

Worship fire?
 
Brother.

It is alarming.

Don't you fear the consequences of the afterlife?

Pls don't get me wrong. I don't wish ill for you. Hence my concern.

Thank you for your concern!

I'll tell you what the fireworshiper priest told me when I put the same question to him.

He said let's do good in this world while we're in it. And we'll try to do the same when we get to the other world. And that way we should always be good and have no worries.

I think that makes a lot of sense.

Good Thoughts
Good Words
Good Deeds

That's the fireworshiper motto. I try to practice that instead of micro management by god.

Will Iran change the name to Persian?
I personally like the name Persian more.

Islam is the fastest growing faith in the world

Iran will be no different to Turkey where even after decades of uber secular rule religious leaning parties made a comeback

Islam will be largest religion in the world by 2070, says report - The Telegraph

They are more peaceful & meaningful to society. Look at all the Parsis in India. They are the wealthiest community in India, not even Hindus if you compare majority. Look at their discipline. Inspite of many being Multi millionaires, you will see most won't use media for publicity or mileage, even though they have the money & power. They don't crave for political powers. They do charity & don't publicize it.

They go by their lives, don't make unwanted noise & are peaceful people. You will very rarely hear any violence or crime from this community. This is what we want from every community, whether they follow religion or not. Tolerance. If any scripture & follower is saying their God is the only God, others have to convert to their religion if they have to marry in to their community is a fake religion. That religion is not tolerant.

And foremost any religion which controls women & want them as slaves should be banned from this modern world. A women has the right to work, dress, sing, dance, drive, travel, enjoy life, etc.

People become violent when somebody says something about their religion. They get into physical fight & some go to the extreme of doing terrorist attacks or threatening others with it. They do it because they don't have belief in their God or because their God don't exist. If they have belief in their God they will know God will take care of the offender, you don't have to. People take to violence because they know their God is fake & they need to suppress or terrorize the offender to save our faith. This is reality. If not there won't be any violence in this world.

Parsis are near enough extinct in India

Out of 1.4 billion slum dwellers, how many are parsi???
