Whatseems to take place outside ideology (to be precise, in the street), in reality takes place in ideology. What really takes place in ideology seems therefore to take place outside it. That is why those who are in ideology believe themselves by definition outside ideology: one of the effects of ideology is the practical denegation of the ideological character of ideology by ideology: ideology never says, 'I am ideological.'

Louis Althusser

Indeed, as long as a country has a culture a religion an ideology where Islam is dominant it will never be a democracy.

Geert Wilders

The trouble with Islam is deeply rooted in its teachings. Islam is not only a religion. Islam (is) also a political ideology that preaches violence and applies its agenda by force.

Wafa Sultan

This radical Islam is a religious-based ideology. And you actually have to, when you deal with the ideology, you have to attack it on that basis.

Jack Keane

It’s a mistake to blame Islam, a religion 14 centuries old, for the evil that should be ascribed to militant Islam, a totalitarian ideology less than a century old. Militant Islam is the problem, but moderate Islam is the solution.

Daniel Pipes

I think ideology is toxic, all ideology. It's not that there are good ones and bad ones. All ideology is toxic, because ideology is a kind of insult to the gift of human free thinking.

Terence McKenna

Every work of art (unless it is a psuedo-intellectualist work, a work already comprised in some ideology that it merely illustrates, as with Brecht) is outside ideology, is not reducible to ideology. Ideology circumscribes without penetrating it. The absence of ideology in a work does not mean an absence of ideas; on the contrary it fertilizes them.

Eugene Ionesco

If you don't like the word 'religion,' you can replace it with 'ideology' - it's largely the same thing. At the heart of both religion and ideology is the question of authority and where authority is coming from.

Yuval Noah Harari

Islam is an ideology and there's a religious component to it that's radicalized and in some cases it masks itself behind that religion, especially in America, because of freedom of religion.

Michael T. Flynn

The Islamic ideology is a political ideology based on a religion.

Michael T. Flynn

Islam is not a religion, but an imperialist ideology like communism or fascism.

Geert Wilders

The minimum necessary structuring ingredient of every ideology is to distance itself from another ideology, to denounce its other as ideology.

Slavoj Žižek

Islam is according to me, my party, not so much a religion as well as it is a totalitarian ideology.

Geert Wilders

My view on Islam is that it is not so much a religion as a totalitarian political ideology with religious elements.

Geert Wilders

In my experience ideology is a lot like religion; it's a belief system and most people cling to it long after it becomes clear that their ideology doesn't describe the real world.
