الاسلام السني دمر الكويت علي كلام علماء الاثار
دراسة أنثروبولوجيية جديدة لعِدّة مواقع آثارية مكسيكية تَعُودُ إلى 700 قبل الميلاد أظَهرتْ بعدم مصداقية لاعتقا ساد لأمد طويل بأن كان الدينِ سببا لتوحيد مجتمعاتَ الدول القديمة
في الحقيقة، يعتقد علماء الباحثون مِنْ جامعةِ كولورادو وجامعة وسط فلوريدا بأن لَرُبَما كان لها تأثيرا معاكسا .
بعد عدة سَنَوات مِنْ البحث الميداني في وادي ريو Verde وفالي Oaxaca على ساحلِ المحيط الهادي المكسيك، اكتشف الأستاذ آرثر جويس والأستاذه المساعدة ساره باربر بأن الطقوسِ الدينيةِ ساعدة لاقامة علاقات قوية بين الجاليات علي نطاقق ضييق مما سببت بتأخير تطويرَ المؤسساتِ الرسميةِ الكبي
Religious conflict has been dividing human society for more than 2,000 ye
ars, scientists say.
A new anthropological study of several Mexican archaeological sites dating back to 700BC has appeared to contradict a long-held belief that religion united early state societies.
In fact, researchers from the University of Colorado and the University of Central Florida believe it may have had the opposite effect.
After several years of field research in the Rio Verde valley and the Valley of Oaxaca on Mexico’s Pacific coast, Professor Arthur A.Joyce and Associate Professor Sarah Barber found that local religious rituals helped to forge strong small scale community links which delayed the development of large state institutions.
In the period they were studying - from approximately 700BC to 250AD - they found elites came to dominate religious life and controlled the connection between communities and their gods - leading to conflict with traditional community leaders.

This eventually lead to the formation of a regional state with the hilltop city of Monte Albán as its capital.
The religious conflict in the lower Rio Verde valley eventually lead to the quick decline of regional power centres with temples grand temples being built by 100AD only to be abandoned a century later.
Professor Joyce from the University of Colorado said: “In both the Valley of Oaxaca and the Lower Río Verde Valley, religion was important in the formation and history of early cities and states, but in vastly different ways.
“Given the role of religion in social life and politics today, that shouldn't be too surprising.”

Our ultimate wealth
Parenting classes should be mandatory, whether you are adopting or not, and would include an evaluation of your current physical, mental and financial state as well as how ready you are to take on the rigors of parenthood. Our children are our most precious natural resource, and there is absolutely no other way to parent but to put them first.

Taliban reject Caliphate
I am sure Khomeini is turning and tossing in his grave if heard such rigmarole. If any Caliphate had been asked for a definition of Jihad he might have produced some unintelligible rigmarole,but he would certainly not have been able to give a
definition that had any meaning at all.

Pakistan Taliban reject Islamic State leader's claim to be 'caliph'
DERA ISMAIL KHAN, PAKISTAN
A man purported to be the reclusive leader of the militant Islamic State Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has made what would be his first public appearance at a mosque in the centre of Iraq's second city, Mosul, according to a video recording posted on the Internet on July 5, 2014, in...

Pakistan’s Taliban have rejected Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s claim to be the global leader of all Muslims, the movement said in a statement seen by Reuters on Saturday.
The Pakistani Taliban's statement comes after a similar rejection by the Afghan Taliban following pledges of allegiance from low-level commanders of both Islamist movements to the Middle East-based Islamic State (IS).
Last year, IS, an al Qaeda offshoot, proclaimed its leader as "caliph" - the head of the state. Al-Baghdadi aspires to establish a global caliphate with himself at its head.
The latest statement from the Pakistani Taliban comes amid speculation that the movement’s leadership, whose goal is to topple the government of prime minister Nawaz Sharif and set up a sharia state, is actually wary of IS, which is driven by different ambitions that have little to do with South Asia.
“Baghdadi is not Khalifa (caliph) because in Islam, Khalifa means that he has command over all the Muslim world, while Baghdadi has no such command; he has command over a specific people and territory,” the Pakistan Taliban said in a statement.
“Baghdadi is not a Islamic Khalifa because his selection is not according to Islamic rules,” the statement said, adding that the IS leader had little control in Muslim countries like Egypt, Libya, Yemen and Afghanistan.
The Pakistani Taliban operate separately from the Afghan insurgents of the same name, but are loosely aligned with them.
Late last year, a few breakaway factions of the Pakistani Taliban declared allegiance to Islamic State and ordered militants across the region to join its campaign to set up a global Islamic caliphate.
Pakistani authorities say IS has no financial ties with any Pakistani group. But there are concerns about further turmoil in the region as U.S.-led foreign troops withdraw from Afghanistan, with groups like the Haqqani network and IS likely to exploit the security vacuum.
The entry of Islamic State, while its numbers remain small, will also complicate Pakistan's fight against indigenous Islamist militants fighting to overthrow the government.
The Pakistani Taliban have been beset by bitter internal rivalries in the recent past, with the influential Mehsud tribal faction of the group refusing to accept the authority of Mullah Fazlullah, who came to power in late 2013.
IS, in an effort to extend its global reach, could exploit these rivalries to its advantage, wading into a region ripe with fierce anti-Western ideology and full of young unemployed men ready to take up guns and fight for Islam.
In its latest statement, the Pakistani Taliban, like the Afghan Taliban, also condemn the ‘barbarity’ of Islamic State’s rule.
“Baghdadi’s caliphate is not Islamic because in a real caliphate you provide real justice while Baghdadi’s men kill many innocent mujahideen (fighters) of other groups,” the statement said.
Earlier this year, the Afghan Taliban sent a letter to al-Baghdadi to stop recruiting in Afghanistan, saying there is room for only "one flag, one leadership" in their fight to re-establish strict Islamist rule
