The Big Lie & the Prelate

The "No-Go Zones" in England are a fact that is not disputed (albeit in the U. S. A., a steady stream of yahoos and patriots would be teaching No-Go Zoners the meaning of the word "cruising"). What apparently is disputable is one's right to talk about them. Particularly if one happens to be a bishop in the Church of England.

Adolf Hitler in his Mein Kampf explicated the the Big Lie -- something so egregious, so incredible that the hearers would not and could not believe that the speaker of the Big Lie would or could say such a thing unless it were true.

Enter Mohammed Shafiq:

Religious groups have demanded the resignation of the Bishop of Rochester after he claimed that Islamic radicals had turned parts of Britain into "no-go" areas for non-Muslims.

The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali wrote in The Sunday Telegraph that fundamentalism had made some communities hostile to Christians and those from other faiths.

But Mohammed Shafiq, from the Ramadhan Foundation, said: "Mr Nazir-Ali is promoting hatred towards Muslims and should resign."

He tells the Big Lie. Namely, that Mr. Nazir-Ali is "promoting hatred toward Muslims" by seeing, recognizing, and telling the truth about No-Go Zones. Gladly, men of goodwill and lovers of truth and freedom see Shafiq's Big Lie, unless bamboozled by the mystification of the primitive Sacred. Sadly, Shafiq is sufficiently blind, deaf, and ignorant due to his presuppositions lodged as they are firmly in the Koran and, hence, the primitive Sacred, to believe his own Big Lie.
