there does appear to be some 'voluntary' tradition in accepting islam.

I partially answered you at post 64. There are some people who accept Islam voluntarily but there is little evidence that Muslims show tendencies toward Libertarianism or Democracy or any kind of freedom in countries they rule. Islam means "submission" not freedom and people who are inclined toward it like being told every single aspect of their life ---what to wear, what to eat, how to pray. These are not freedom loving people ---in fact it's the rigid rules that appeal to them, so they never have to think. I'm not sure someone bowing to a city in another country 5 times a day should be elected to anything in the US.
