Does anyone realize that for propaganda to be successful, it needs clever marketing?

Question

To make propaganda look like truth, it has to subliminally permeate our thinking. Inserting anti-Islaic commentary, for example amidst well accepted doctrine will make that commentary appear to be just as acceptible, That is why I aked the question concerning Barnes and Noble having a Christian agenda. In the midst of scholarly looking books supporting Intelligent design, there was a book called "The Truth about Islam" which horribly bashed Mohammad and the religion in general.

Do you get my point now?

Answer 1

as a muslim woman, i advise u strongly to kick that conspiracy theory idea out of ur head ............ i'm not denying it exists - it's just that i prefer spending my time thinking about how great Allah is instead of placing myself subject to that propaganda.

anyway, He never promised smile without tears

assalamo alaikom to all of u

Answer 2

Having spent 12 years of my life in the advertising business, I know a lot about subliminal messages. Selling an idea rather than a tangible product or service is far more complex.

At the core of all propaganda is fear. In other words, 'do as we do, think as we think, and you will be safer; there are unseen enemies who want to (either) change your life drastically or end it'''. That message doesn't exist in commercial advertising. You can't say ''if you use Brand X, you will get sick and die'' (if you do, not only would it be libellous, but greeted with outrage).

It therefore seems peculiar that propaganda is condoned both by seemingly sensible people but also in law. Just one example would be if a Republican political candidate claimed voting for his Democrat rival would result in a terrorist attack in America. There is no basis in fact for this; not even any statistical evidence of the likelihood of it. In the corporate world, a CEO who stated that his competitor would cause harm would be sued for millions.

Perhaps you should be asking a different question - why do the masses believe propaganda?

Answer 3

How do you know a customer didn't place the book there out of laziness, or by mistake? Get real. Sometimes you walk into a CD store, only to find country music CDs mixed into the Rap section. Or Rock CDs mixed into the Classical Music section. You're delving far too into this. It looks more like YOU'RE the one with an agenda -- an anti-Christian agenda.

Answer 4

A2Z that's third time I've seen the same answer from you, I guess you can't come up with a another one. There was a guy on here not long ago who left islam and was doing a whole of bashing on his own, so you're going to have to come up with something better, than "a Christian agenda".

Answer 5

Also propanda needs a strong voice of authority. Someone who can gauranteed that the offer is the best for you. In this age of media, propaganda has developed into a high art form. Your use of the word "clever" is the exact word to describe propaganda.

Answer 6

Well, there is definitely a Christian book market, and it is one of the largest markets, as evidenced by popular series like "Left Behind". Religion is great at marketing. They need to be, because there are really no facts on their side. Therefore, they have learned to exploit human weaknesses. They play on human emotions. This is what marketers do.

Answer 7

Nobody needs a book to "bash" Islam. All you need is a brain.

Answer 8

Regarding Mankind, GOD says in the HOLY QURAN, HE created man with clay/dirt. So earth got different colour mud/sand/dirt/clay, in this way Mankind created in different different color and after death mankind will return back to dirt and then GOD will resurrect whole mankind on the day of judgement for the accountability
GOD created mankind for test and final destination will be either ETERNAL PARADISE or HELL WITHOUT CHOICE
GOD already knows whom HE will be going to admit in paradise or hell. But people of HELL will say to GOD you have not done justice why you have not admitted us in paradise. That is why GOD created EARTH for the TEST for mankind only for excuse. If people believe in GOD and obey him he will admit them in paradise otherwise hell. That is how people of HELL will not have any excuse in the hereafter.

That how GOD proves that man has come to the world without his own will and wish and will be soon goes back to grave again without his own will and wish . Life is a test, so dont waste time. Please do research to find out TRUE RELIGION OF GOD TO MANKIND, OTHERWISE IT IS TOO LATE TO BE SORRY

TRY TO THINK:

Which is the oldest bible in existence? Is that the version you follow, or do you prefer a more recently doctored version?

ANSWER:

Hi, Definetly NOT. May be some sort of CORRUPT translation in the form of different language.
This is due to the handy work of Satan/Jinn/Devil and also human nature to follow their own desires rather than following the simple message of all the prophets that is to believe in ONLY ONE GOD in order to achieve the PURPOSE OF LIFE.

Regarding the revelations from ONLY ONE GOD, GOD chosen angel Gabriel through prophets (from first prophet Adam to last prophet Mohammad (PBU them all) including Jesus (PBUH) to deliver the simple message to believe in ONLY ONE GOD in order to achieve the purpose of life. But every time the message got corrupted until GOD sent the final prophet Mohammad (PBUH) to make the religion PURE from CORRUPTION. Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) always tell his companions/scholars to write it down as soon as the revelation from GOD comes via angel Gibriel. On top of that many people don't know HOLY QURAN is the only BOOK that has been memorised from begining till end that was the case during the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) life and after that. Now there are millions of muslim even the four years old memorised the whole QURAN unlike any other book. That's how the Quran is preserved in ORIGINAL form via written record as well as by memorisation.
There are only two scared books to follow, first is the HOLY QURAN and the other is the SAYINGS OF PROPHET (PBUH).
Regarding the HOLY QURAN:
Man or science and technology in their own limitations can’t answer this things/believes/struggle. Only thing left for the mankind is to find out from the ONLY ONE CREATOR that created everything that exists.
The thing is people don’t know what to follow. They follow something that haven’t said by prophets including Jesus (peace be upon him PBUH) himself. The solution to this is to do a research and find out the AUTHENCITY of the source or the books. It is not at all difficult in today’s world.
In Short: The ONLY PURE ORIGINAL WORD OF GOD is left on the phase of the planet is the HOLY QURAN that came with the prophet 1400 years ago without any SINGLE LETTER corrupted, that Guides, Faith with Proof, shows way of life, tells in details the mission of prophets including Jesus (peace be upon him PBUH), gives answers to all questions, solutions and tells much in details of what will be going to happen (past, present and future) and the purpose of existence, etc. The WORD OF GOD came with the SAME MESSAGE through prophets (from first prophet Adam to last prophet Mohammad (PBU them all) including Jesus (PBUH) and only person to interpret is the prophet of GOD at that time. Unlike HOLY QURAN all the other Books are corrupted and are not in the PURE ORIGINAL WORD OF GOD that’s is due to the handy work of Satan/Jinn/Devil and also human nature to follow their own desires rather than following the simple message of all the prophets that is to believe in ONLY ONE GOD in order to achieve the PURPOSE OF LIFE. In Muslim world there are many books available today in different languages of the ORIGINAL INTERPRETATION of the HOLY QURAN by the prophet of GOD about 1400 years ago that is the only interpretation that has to be follow to be the true follower of the prophet as commanded by GOD and the ONLY WAY to SUCCESS that is both in this WORLD and ETERNAL PARADISE. Regards,

How many of you believe that Mary is the mother of God?

ANSWER

NOT the true believers. True believers including all the 1.6 Billions Muslim present on the phase of the planet and all the creatures of the ONLY ONE GOD. Mary (peace be upon her PBUH) is the mother of prophet Jesus (peace be upon him).

This is the how GOD describes HIMSELF in HOLY QURAN chapter 112.

[112:0] In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

[112:1] Proclaim, "He is the One and only GOD.

[112:2] "The Absolute GOD.

[112:3] "Never did He beget. Nor was He begotten.

[112:4] "None equals Him."

NO ONE can challenge this. Except ISLAM, all other religions on the phase of this planet including their so called human gods cannot fit in this category.


NO INTERCESSION except in accordance with GOD will (HOLY QURAN chapter 2)

[2:254] O you who believe, you shall give to charity from the provisions GOD have given to you, before a day comes where there is no trade, no nepotism, and NO INTERCESSION. The disbelievers are the unjust.

[2:255] GOD: there is no other god besides Him, the Living, the Eternal. Never a moment of unawareness or slumber overtakes Him. To Him belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth. Who could INTERCEDE with Him, except in accordance with His will? He knows their past, and their future. No one attains any knowledge, except as He wills. His dominion encompasses the heavens and the earth, and ruling them never burdens Him. He is the Most High, the Great.


Infact THE HOLY QURAN is ORIGINAL WORD OF GOD in PURE FORM and the FINAL TESTAMENT for mankind from ONLY ONE GOD who have created everything that exists.
