EU funding $11 million for Qur'an contributions and Islam regarding European civilization and perhaps its overthrow

Angry that some guy used a Koran as a doorstop

The European Union is forking over $11,000,000 to study the period of 1150 to 1850, a time when Islam had as much influence on European civilization as a fly on the butt of a camel, except for the, you know, constant threat to Europe's existence. Rather than spending the money on exploring ways of alleviating Islamic violence perpetrated on all things unIslamic, the EU would rather capitulate and hope the alligator eats them last.

“‘The European Qu’ran [sic]’: Falsifying European History With Funding from the EU,” by Hélène de Lauzun, European Conservative, April 16, 2025:

The European Union is preparing to provide €10 million in funding for a scientific research project aimed at highlighting the contribution of the Qu’ran [sic] and the Muslim religion to European civilisation. The influence of the Muslim Brotherhood is evident behind this undertaking.

The objective of this programme, entitled ‘The European Qur’an,’ the idea of which was launched six years ago and which is due to last until 2026, is to “challenge traditional perceptions of the Qur’anic text and well-established ideas about European religious and cultural identities” through traveling exhibitions, conferences, and book publications. The starting point of the project’s initiators is that the influence of Islam on European culture is greatly underestimated. “Our project is built on the conviction that the Qur’an has played an important role in the formation of medieval and early modern European religious diversity and identity and continues to do so,” reads the website homepage. The project aims to cover a chronological span of seven hundred years, from 1150 to 1850, from the Iberian Peninsula to Hungary.

But why don't we take a little look at how the Qur'an [aka Koran] has enlightened the world in ways it hasn't seen since the Dark Ages.

Love thy neighbor has been a Judeo-Christian precept long before Islam was brought here by Mohammed, the so called prophet of Islam and a man who married a 6-year-old Ayisha but was descent enough to wait 3 years before consummating the marriage.

When Muslims become your neighbor, be you Christian, Jew, Hindu or atheist, you can bet they're going to show their love in the methods  described in Islamic scripture:

Koran 2:191 "Slay the unbelievers wherever you find them."

Koran 3:28 "Muslims must not take the infidels as friends."
Koran 3:85 "Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable."
Koran 5:33 "Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam."
Koran 8:12 "Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Koran."
Koran 8:60 "Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels.'
Koran 8:65 "The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them."
Koran 9:5 "When opportunity arises kill the infidels wherever you find them."
Koran 9:30 "The Jews and Christians are perverts, fight them."
Koran 9:123 "Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood."
Koran 22:19 "Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt their skin and bellies.
Koran 47:4 "Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them."

But while religious tolerance is not their strong point, Islam is tolerant of most lifestyles not associated with religious beliefs, except when it comes to women:

A hadith in Sahih Muslim, Book 20, Number 4635 (and similar narrations), where it's mentioned that if a Muslim man is killed by a woman, he would not be considered a martyr. This isn't stating he won't go to heaven but specifically that he won't be termed a martyr in the context of jihad.

Okay, speaking about women in Islam, what happens when a woman goes to paradise? 

Glad you asked. When a Muslima dies, paradise for her includes eternal joy and peace. The peace part is obvious because dead people don't have problems, but the joy part includes her dwelling in gardens with rivers, free from pain, hardship or sorrow, so there's no excuse for kfetching [complaining], (Koran 2:25, 9:72). Thus they will have complete contentment and closeness to Allah while their husbands enjoy 72 beautiful virgins.

Jannah [heaven] also offers exquisite houses, silk clothing, ornaments and loads of fruits and drinks (Koran 22:23, 76:21). Women, even the not so beautiful ones and even those who look like something the slave dragged in, will have beauty and adornments that go beyond the expensive stuff you get on Earth.

The women will also be reunited with dead loved ones, such as their martyred kids, parents or spouse, if they're lucky like them to make it to the big show (Koran 52:21).

Finally, women who enter Jannah, will derive the greatest pleasure of all time: getting Allah's approval and perhaps even getting to check him out with their own eyes. (Koran 75:22-23, Hadith in Sahih Muslim). 

This reward is for all believers, but depends on Allah's schedule for when he is not killing infidels, especially the, you know, Jews.

If you enjoy my blog, feel free to toss a virtual coffee my way on Buy Me a Coffee – it’s like a high-five with caffeine, and coffee keeps me focused. No pressure, it's your call. 

So while the so called European Koran makes a case for Islam's contribution ot Europe, the hard cold facts can be delineated in such things as the Crusades, the calls for violence in the Koran, especially against the Jews, but not limited to them, their misogynistic rhetoric and having women as less than second class citizens, but more along the lines of possessions. 

Killing in the name of Islam for every slight argument against the ideology, kind of says it all about the religion of peace. 

And don't get me started on gays, lesbians and transgender people.
