Steve has tackled Philosophy of Language and I enjoy his Scholarship, but understanding english or french language above gives me an logical thought that NASA, Roman Empire, Israel, Pharoah, USA, UN, paganChristianity, CIA, could fit the definition above.

AlIslaam in the original Language of Arabic, teaches the Believer that their is One representation for the explaining of meanings, devotional moral codes governing human affairs.

AlIslaam, provided for the human being in the Arabic Language, produces for the modern human the words, transliterated into english, Deen and Allaah.

english inadvertently gives the meaning of Deen as religion----according to wiki and english dictionary meaning, the Believer does not accept religion as the meaning of Deen.

english inadvertently gives the meaning of Allaah as god------and again, according to wiki and english dictionary meaning, the Believer does not accept god as the meaning of Allaah.......

DeenAlIslaam is the meaning for the governance of human affairs and Allaah is the meaning for the Creator of all creation.

those that have been disappointed in their study of paganMultiGod 'religions';
should feel comforted that there is a meaning and discipline for the governance of Human Affairs from The Creator of all creation is avaliable eventhough it has been deleted and Diverted from the Western History, Sociology and Scholarship---

The Believer is never living in a "world of misery". and understands that the Believer cannot have an ego, the Believer is created not creator..... that the living, death and purpose of the created is the sole understanding of The Creator.....
