The Arabic word 'islam' literally means "to surrender," but as a
religious term in the Quran, it means "to surrender to the will or law
of God." The psychological motif underlying this, I believe, is the
narcissistic overextended ego. The ego must be pacified by always
bending down and saying that God is greater (than me)!
("Allahu-akhbar".)
The immature ego tends to run amok, and become greedy and
self-centered. So the call to "convert and submit" is directed at
those ethnic groups that still remain in a narcissistic stage; having
only recently, or to a relative degree, achieved emancipation from the
unconscious.
Hence there is a positive side to Islam. It fulfils a wholesome
function among ethnic groups that exist at a relatively immature level
of consciousness. It tempers the self-centeredness of the ego. This
was also the function of the Mosaic religion at the early stage of ego
emancipation following the exodus from Egypt. Rivkah Schᅵrf Kluger
discusses the "consciousness-creating phenomenon" of the "chosen
people" in her book 'Psyche in Scripture'. At this level of culture, in
order to put a damper on the voracious ego, people centre around
obeisance and obedience to the Law.
.
But still today, in Swedish media, voices are heard urging for laws
adjusted after 'sharia' in immigrant housing areas. People originating
from backward cultural regions are urging the authorities to install a
paternalistic model of society. They long after rules to obey, and a
strong father figure to bow down before.
What are the long-term effects on Western civilisation? Islam is the
religion of the Arabs and the Pakistanis, etc. Together with
immigration from Mexico, etc, the white level of civilization in
America risks being overwhelmed. How long will it take until a
"Hugo Chavez" appears on the American presidential scene?
Americans are primitive enough as they are. If their level of culture
deteriorates even further it poses a threat to Western civilisation.
I have written about my misgivings in an article called "The intrusion
of matriarchal consciousness" where it is argued that Western general
consciousness, in parallel with an ongoing cultural dissolution, risks
moving in a "matriarchal" direction. It represents the formation of a
neurotic culture at a lower level of consciousness:

Now, Smith and Wesson guarantee superior rights for smart women; the
warrior will hesitate to shoot that which he hopes to fuck later, but
the feminist wont hesitate. End of the warrior.
Whoever has the most force has the most money, and now, that's women.
Only the Samuri understood, and banned the use of firearms from the
field of battle for 200 years. Nobody else had that much integrity.
Dont blame the women, blame the weak men who wanted stronger weapons,
and now even women can use them.
