I’ve been doing some youtube vids recently on qadianism. Even easier than podcasts, it’s the one creative outlet I’ve found that requires almost no reading and no writing beyond file-naming. I’m sorry therefore that this post has taken me the best part of a fortnight to write, but my eyes are really not up to much more.
Insha’Allah, Suspect Paki will be up and running again in mid April after I have recovered from my vitrectomy, which takes place on Friday 30th of March. I know all my regular readers are rooting for me, and I pray for you all and am grateful to all of you for your kindness, support and friendship. It has been a source of great comfort to me that even those who initially didn’t like me were kind enough to offer supportive messages after reading me for a bit. What hope that gives me for humanity! I have not met many of you, but I consider you my friends and if ever I get the chance, I would love to have a tea or coffee with you all!
This one Qadiani/Ahmadi (a believer in a Punjabi claimant to prophethood in the early 20th/late 19th century called Mirza Ghulam Ahmad - who swore more than I do!) on the comments section did the usual for most Qadianis I have encoutnered on-line; play the man - not the ball. Constant ad hominem attacks. Fortunately, not all qadianis/ahmadis are like this person. However, the cult-mind does encourage such thinking. He was soon joined by many others.
Lest it not be entirely obvious, even for those who are not cult-minded or Mirza-inclined, there is the tribal mentality that comes from a cult-association that thrives (much like Israel) on an outrageously disproportionate persecution complex to factor in too.
Anyway, this one particulary person dragged out some of my most open and painful posts and cut and pasted sections from them into the comment section on youtube where I had posted my vids about his fake prophet who called all Muslims “kaafirs” and “sons of whores”. And he revelled in it and was delighted at any misfortune he could find….this is typical of the qadiani/ahmadi/cult mindset. Unable to defend his prophet who hated Muslims and kissed Queen Victoria’s arse, he delights in the suffering of other people. His prophet prayed for the destruction of so many too - he was a prophet of doom. This trait has been passed onto many of his followers.
This incident is not isolated. Many others joined in. What I found most disturbing about these people is that they seemed to think it was OK to take pleasure in the suffering of my children. This has always been the case. In many personal emails since I left the cult, my family is always dragged into such matters. Ad hominem. Crude. Cultish.
All people suffer. To many qadianis/ahmadis/cultees, it’s because those people denied their messiah. To normal people, it’s part of life. These are the kind of evil bastards who laugh at limbless Palestinian kids and say “it’s because you rejected Mirza”.
It’s funny, loads of qadianis go through hell (like anybody else), but the cultees never argue that this is because worldly salvation is not about defeating hard times at all - because their prophet never achieved it for himself (he suffered illness upon illness, misfortune upon misfortune) and his followers certainly don’t.
These cultees don’t see that belief in their fake prophet doesn’t stop qadianis from getting divorced, getting cancer, financial problems, prison - these are things that happen irrespective of your belief. What your belief does is offer some perspective and help you grow. Now I am Muslim and not a kaafir, I have a huge amount of perspective. Interestingly, I believe atheists, Jews, Christians and pagans have more perspective and are more sane than cult victims like the Qadianis. That can be seen from the comments on my blog - where even the racists wished me well when I had hard times. Again, I stress, not all Qadianis are like this. I hope that’s clear. In fact, most Qadianis are not familiar with the writings of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. If they were familiar, and still sane, they would leave Ahmadiyya.
Cultees also conveniently forget that deniers of Mirza (that’s practically the whole world) have amongst their rank, astonishingly successful people (certainly when measured in the worldly sense - and in other senses too…)
Mirza was a fraud. He misled people into ruin and charged them for it. He claimed revelation, but died the way he prophesied his opponents to, shit coming out of both ends of his alimentary canal uncontrollably and violently; of cholera. I’m glad they rejoice in my personal misfortunes. I have learned and grown from them. I am still learning and growing. I have had much good happen to me too.
The cult mindset is so terribly stupid. For example, ten years ago, when I was a cultee, I was told I had kidney disease as a result of my diabetes. I had high(ish) creatinine levels and microalbuminuria. I went on to have higher creatinine and eventually I was pissing protein. That was it really - the early stages of diabetic nephropathy. How would a cultee explain that? Are qadianis meant to be immune from diabetic nephropathy?
And now, ten years later, last Monday in fact, I received the extraordinary and near-miraculous news that my blood creatinine level has stabilised and that there is no protein in my urine. My kidney function is in the normal range. Using the cultee mindset, Mirza gave me kidney disease, rejection of Mirza and embracing Islam cured me of it. What do the hardcore Mirzais have to say about that?
Thankfully, normal people don’t think like this. Normal people recognise bad times as a trial that afflict everyone. Normal people regard earthly calamities as indiscriminate too, but the qadianis were rejoicing when a recent earthquake in Pakistan and Kashmir killed tens of thousands and damaged the lives of millions. Not all qadianis mind you, let’s make it clear once again, but certainly a significant, documented minority who really are familiar with the works of Mirza. These are the truly evil who rejoice at the suffering of other humans.
What makes us human is empathy. Look, I hate the idea of Zionism and I despise the machinery of Israel, but in my sane moments (usually when I’m not blogging, and therefore, much of the time) I recognise the humanity of even those tyrants and when their children are killed, it is a tragedy, like the loss of our own children. In every parent we recognise the anguish that we ourselves would feel if we lost our own.
Qadianis, harcore Qadianis, and other cultees, are not like this. They see human suffering as a natural consequence of the rejection of their prophet, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who was at best a charlatan and at worse, well, I could reverse any of his own bitter epithets, dripping from his poison Urdu pen against anyone who didn’t buy his line in bullshit and lies and hatred.
Some of them are amazed that I can show open disrespect not only to their religion, but to the current religion of some of my family members. This is hypocritical. They call my religion one of terrorism, which makes them no better than anyone from the Zionaxis’ PR and in many ways, significantly worse. I might be Judas to them, but their community is far worse than Judas to the Muslims. Their community is a stain beacuse it prefers imperialism to Islam. Finally, and because of its heretical beliefs, but also in part due to its treacherous poltiical conduct over the years, Ghulam-Ahmadism/Ahmadiyyat/Qadianism is not a religion. It is a cult.
Those cultees being personal makes me happy, because it proves I am getting to them. Excellent. I know I’m on the right track. Leaving those God-forsaken heathen scum was the best thing I ever did.
