OF COURSE a report like this will strike fear in the hearts of every reader of these words. We may need to have fear spread around a LOT more, to stir people into taking action. It is for sure, the Muslims will not take the necessary steps to purge Islam of the double-talk and the false representations the imams have made of their theological and ideological goals. Everybody is either to become Muslim, or be reduced to the status of "dhimmi", or assume room temperature and provide worm food and compost.

None of the three alternatives appeals to me very much. It is all done with the element of compulsion, and is diametrically opposed to the individual human dignity which is considered one of the high ideals of Western civilization. If Muslims want me to respect Islam, they must first respect my point of view, and allow their belief system to compete openly. This means that Muslims are free to leave the Islamic religion after becoming conversant with the postulates of other beliefs, without fear of retaliation by their former brethren.

Muslims are almost TOO zealous about pursuing their prejudices. Nobody would tolerate a Christian being so bigoted, adamant and dogmatic for ten seconds.

Re. your #60.

When fear is justified, then people should fear. But no one should spread fear without also taking steps to confront the reasons for it. That's my beef with this writer. She gives no relevant details (e.g., the actual place where this occured) and apparently did nothing else to confront the problem.
