Most Muslims don't know most of Islam is Pagan itself.

Kissing black stone in Kaaba is Pagan practice, Circling it is Pagan practice & worshipping a black stone is Pagan practice. Even Islamic Special days - "Ramzan, Eid" are based on Pre Meccan Pagan months of the changes in the phase of the "Moon". Islam is simply the worship of a Pagan Moon God - Allah, An ancient Sumerian Moon God.

@vmeister11 western and arab conflicts, I think not. These wars are nothing to do with religion people. america was fight alongside with muslim countries like Saudia Arabia, Morroco, Niger against muslim arab nations like Iraq. This is all political, and to do with oil and the natural resources that these people need for wealth, power and control. They use the media propaganda to make it as if it's all about religion but it aint. Palestine yes about religion and secular world order palns.

Oh, yes, I have most of the stand-alone internet radios in my house programmed with Radio Dismuke as one of the selections. There once was another, similar station, that featured recordings from the 1890s through the early 1920s and fit nicely with Dismuke, but, unfortunately, it went off the air a year or two back.

@felixjazzage Read your YT description....funny my heart pines for the 20's/30's. Love that era, particularly music/film. Do you know of the website: dismuke dot org?

@vmeister11

Well, it's not as if the kingdoms and republics that were Pagan or Buddhist or Hindu were all peaceful with their neighbors by any means, but I do think that crusades and jihad were unknown to them, unless they were reacting to the Abrahamic monotheists' aggression. For example, the ancient Romans were no strangers to warfare, but, provided you paid homage to the cult of the Emperor, they tended to let you follow your religion in peace. Only Jews, Druids and Christians varied.

[vmeister11]

@felixjazzage You got it. Eventually arab/persian muslims will want to know their real past like christian europeans. Don't see this happening for some time. Once we shake off this scourge of Abrahamic monotheism from the people of western and arab/muslim world there should be fewer nonsensical global conflicts.

They threw rocks at him, like in the Charlie Brown Halloween cartoon.

You Romanians are clever. (-:

@vmeister11

Don't forget the fact that Christmas apparently conveniently falls on what once was the "Birthday of the Unconquered Sun," the main festival of a major rival to Christianity in the late Roman Empire, the worship of the god Sol Invictus (favored by the Emperor Aurelian, among others). There may be a connection to Mithraism, also, another major rival faith.

What our Muslim friends won't admit is how much Paganism still influences Muslim traditions. *LOL*

What you're missing is the almost complete secularization of Halloween in 19th century America. It became a party night & lost whatever Catholic traits it had in a mainly Protestant or mixed Protestant/Catholic setting. The Pagan customs are there, but they also lost any religious significance a very long time ago. Except for neopagans, Halloween's about the most secular holiday imaginable.

However, if you see "satan" everywhere, then you'll see him here too, I guess.
