	'''Islamophilia''' is a controversial neologism employed by some politicians, sociologists and journalists to describe unwavering and uncritical admiration ~~of the values~~ of [[Islam]], generally associated with an admiration of Islamic civilization. Islamophilia, like its antonym [[Islamophobia]], is not included in renomated dictionaries.		'''Islamophilia''' is a controversial neologism employed by some politicians, sociologists and journalists to describe unwavering and uncritical admiration of [[Islam]], generally associated with an admiration of Islamic civilization. Islamophilia, like its antonym Islamophobia, is not included in renomated dictionaries.

	However, many proponents of the term argue that it has existed historically as well, in instances like the wave of orientalism that followed Disraeli's premiership and his support for the Ottoman Caliphate of the time.

	Project315 supposes that Islamophilia in the West is a result of the necessary moral equivalence between ALL religions for the prominent relativistic worldview of the West to be maintained. If Islam is examined and it is demonstrably true that the teachings of Muhammad (Islam) are more like fascism and Naziism than the altruistic and peaceful teachings of Christ and His apostles (Christianity), then a cataclysmic paradigm shift should happen, especially in academia, as relativism (the most prominent worldview espoused today in academia) will be tossed in the ash heap of history alongside other failed philosophical theories.
