US evangelicals frame Islam as a totalitarian system beyond First Amendment protection

Evidence

We need to realize that Islam itself is not simply a religion, it’s a totalitarian way of life. It is a legal system, the law of Sharia; it’s a financial system, it’s a moral code, it’s a political system, it’s a military system. Islam should not be protected by the First Amendment, especially when one knows that those who obey the diktat of the Koran are duty bound to destroy our Constitution and to replace it with Sharia law. — Sahar F. Aziz, The Racial Muslim, 741
