In Islam, Muslims are constantly doing the will of Allah. Apparently in Islam, Allah is less willing to handle his own affairs and needs lesser Gods to impart his will. So essentially Islam makes the Muslim into a Demi-God who then pretend to be arbitors of the great God's (Allah) will on earth. Unbelievers are lesser creatures who must submitt.
Its one thing to believe that some low-rent book, from any religion, represents the voice of God. However its quite another to take it upon yourself, to enforce the supposed will of God.
A human, believing in a religion, isnt necessarily pretending to be a God when he trys to manage "his own affairs" using his interpretation of the book. Its when someone tries to manage my or your affairs, especially by force, due to his claim that he is enforcing the will of God, that he is then "playing God".
Given this, one must conclude that Muslims essentially pretend to be Demi-Gods and Islam is the upitome of paganism.
