It takes a nation to protect the nation

Anglican Bishop of West Malaysia: "there is a systematic and progressive reduction of public space to practice, profess and express our faith"

Creeping Sharia in action. Islamic law forbids the public expression or propagation of faiths other than Islam. But hey, let's try it in the West anyway, and no, really, this time it'll be different.

An update on this story. "Malaysian Christians say no to discriminatory government slogans on Bible," from AsiaNews, March 31:

Kuala Lumpur (AsiaNews / Agencies) - The Christian Federation of Malaysia has rejected the Government's proposal to release 35 thousand Bibles with “For Christianity” printed on the cover. The books, written in Malay, have been under lock and key since 2009 in the port where they arrived. The government had earlier decided to release them, but wanted to stamp a serial number and the slogan "Only Christians” on the cover. The controversy stems from a government decision to ban the use of the word "Allah" to refer to God by non-Muslims. The judiciary has decided against the government on this point, but a [date] for the appeal hearing has yet to be fixed.
The Malaysian Christians argue that there should be no "restrictions, prohibitions and proscriptions" in the use of the sacred books. The government wants to impose an inscription on the Bible, printed in Indonesia, to reduce the risk of Muslims converting.

Their paranoia makes them look weak.

The Bible Society of Malaysia, which imports and distributes Bibles, took charge of a shipment of five thousand Bibles "defaced" by the government writing on March 28. The general secretary of the company, Simon Wong, said that they "can not be sold to Christian buyers" in their current state. "Instead they will be respectfully kept as museum pieces, a witness of the Christian Churches in Malaysia." The president of the Christian Federation of Malaysia, Bishop Ng Moon Hing, said that "there is a systematic and progressive reduction of public space to practice, profess and express our faith. The freedom to wear and display crosses and other religious symbols, to use religious terms and to build places of worship has been progressively restricted. "

Muslim Terrorism Count

Thousands of Deadly Islamic Terror Attacks Since 9/11

Mission Overview

Most Western societies are based on Secular Democracy, which itself is based on the concept that the open marketplace of ideas leads to the optimum government. Whilst that model has been very successful, it has defects. The 4 Freedoms address 4 of the principal vulnerabilities, and gives corrections to them. 

At the moment, one of the main actors exploiting these defects, is Islam, so this site pays particular attention to that threat.

Islam, operating at the micro and macro levels, is unstoppable by individuals, hence: "It takes a nation to protect the nation". There is not enough time to fight all its attacks, nor to read them nor even to record them. So the members of 4F try to curate a representative subset of these events.

We need to capture this information before it is removed.  The site already contains sufficient information to cover most issues, but our members add further updates when possible.

We hope that free nations will wake up to stop the threat, and force the separation of (Islamic) Church and State. This will also allow moderate Muslims to escape from their totalitarian political system.

The 4 Freedoms

These 4 freedoms are designed to close 4 vulnerabilities in Secular Democracy, by making them SP or Self-Protecting (see Hobbes's first law of nature). But Democracy also requires - in addition to the standard divisions of Executive, Legislature & Judiciary - a fourth body, Protector of the Open Society (POS), to monitor all its vulnerabilities (see also Popper). 
1. SP Freedom of Speech
Any speech is allowed - except that advocating the end of these freedoms
2. SP Freedom of Election
Any party is allowed - except one advocating the end of these freedoms
3. SP Freedom from Voter Importation
Immigration is allowed - except where that changes the political demography (this is electoral fraud)
4. SP Freedom from Debt
The Central Bank is allowed to create debt - except where that debt burden can pass across a generation (25 years).

An additional Freedom from Religion is deducible if the law is applied equally to everyone:

  • Religious and cultural activities are exempt from legal oversight except where they intrude into the public sphere (Res Publica)"
