| just out of curiosity, how many muslims have you actually met which leads to your divide of moderate & extremist muslims? A Holy scripture has to be read first to be commented upon, i can see your thoughts based on independent & ignorant analysis. Surprisingly i still believe in "Live & let live" & would never want to interpret someones beliefs moulding them into my own thinking paradigm |

Plenty, having taught in UK secondary schools. Ever taught in an inner-city UK secondary school? Ever discussed the State of Israel or Theory of Evolution with such people?

No it doesn't. One learns from others. An illiterate person cannot believe that God sent the angel Gabriel to reveal to Muhammad he is the final messenger of God? What total crap.

Then you should have no problem explaining in detail why it is ignorant. Clearly you feel there is reason to believe the statement "the majority of Muslims believe the Koran to be infallibly true" is false - what is that reason exactly?

I'm perfectly entitled to subject any ideology to criticism and mockery, thanks. I can have a good laugh at Naziism, Social Darwinism, Biblical Creationism, anything I like, last I checked.  |
