I don’t think it takes a degree in theology. Mohammed was held up as the ultimate archetype of what a muslim should be. As one would expect from the founder of any religion. He was a murderer, a terrorist, a thief, a rapist and a pedophile. How can any muslim condemn those behaviors without condemning their holy prophet? Never mind condemning them they are supposed to emulate Mohammed’s behavior.
So we are left with two choices that I see. 1) The government bans the practice of Islam, or, 2) The government forces Islam to change.
With Utah Statehood, Congress did not choose to ban Mormonism, The Church of Latter Day Saints finally came around to changing the polygamy issues themselves in order to have statehood for Utah. Sort of a carrot and a stick approach. Constitutionally, I have little problem with that method.
Constitutionally, how does the government do the 1 or 2 listed above? Can it?
