Monotheism is just the popular version of monism. Greek theological monism is what makes them invent mathematics and physics as alternate metaphysics. The original question of the greek was about the existence of primarily physical universe (which is mainly Aristotle theology). The god of greek platonic theology is just Truth. It exist by definition for any researchers. About radical islamism, it should be obvious those are unbeliever, and in fact, when you read their doctrine, like the chart of the Hamas, it is just nazism. The Palestinian movement seems to be invented by Himmler and Al Husseini, and the big European and American mistake is to have let nazism proliferate in the Middle East. Palestine and Israel is just different name for the same country, and the Middle-east conflict is just the second war (against nazi). Radical Islamism is actually graver than Nazism, as they add the christians in their list of enemies, and also the feminist women. Palestinian homosexuals, or atheists, or apostat are all dead or … refugees in Israel, which is the only country in the Middle-East where Muslims can say what they think. I consider myself as an expert in the domain of lies, I collect them, and the domain of Israel is the only domain where the lies are more numerous in the Media that in the domain of Health, and that means something. I have written a paper showing that the technic of lies were basically the same in the Turkish genocide of Armenians, in the genocide of Tutsis in Rwanda, and … on Hemp. Those problem are not theological. It is just that that political manipulation is made easy when we abandon science to any form of dogmatic pseudo-thinking, whatever the domain is chosen for this.
