Ali Sina Quotes About Values
-
The world of Islam is a world completely distinct from ours. Muslims have a different set of values. They look at the world through the contorted mirror of Islam and everything they see is warped.

Therefore when they commit the most dastardly acts such as murder of school children, they genuinely don't know that what they are doing is evil.

Licentious societies create a spiritual vacuum that legalistic religions such as Islam fill.
