Perhaps because I'm a relative newbie I shouldn't be so bold (or perhaps foolish) as to say this, but didn't the culture of the Western world grow out of Hellenistic values? Didn't Greek philosophy pave the way for Christendom? And weren't the Greeks the first Gentile converts to Christianity?
I'm asking these questions in all seriousness; I'm not just trying to be a pain in the butt.
BTTT!
last time I checked we have freedom of religion
And their number is growing daily sad to say.
This is an excellent article and a must read.
Today, there is another culture vying for America's attention. The values underlying this culture are watered from the deep springs of Islam.

"Why I left Islam", by Dr. Ali Sina
"...the real Islam is not what its philosophers and mystics have inferred but what is in the Quran and that is the Islam of the fundamentalist and the terrorist. The real Islam is the Islam that abuses women, that allows men to beat their wives, that imposes penalty tax on the religious minorities, that wants to dominate the world by subduing all the non-Muslims, that calls for Jihad and killing the non-believers until Islam becomes the only dominant religion of the World*.""The enemy is Islam and that is the target of my attacks. I do that, despite knowing that I have become the magnet of the hatred of fanatical Muslims and my own life could be in danger.
Yet I know that by eradicating Islam we can save the world from the dangers of a catastrophe that otherwise is looming over our heads and could cause more disaster than the 1st and 2nd World Wars combined."
Islamic terror based on Quran: ex-CIA official
"A former top official of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency paints a menacing picture of the relationship between Islam and terrorism.
"Islamic terrorism is based on Islam as revealed through the Quran," keynote speaker Bruce Tefft claimed in a panel discussion at the University of Toronto on jihad and global terrorism.
And, he added, "There is no difference between Islam and Islamic fundamentalism, which is a totalitarian construct..."
According to Tefft, the Quran enjoins Muslims to believe that the whole world should be governed by the principles of Islam*, an expansionist religion that has historically grown through conquest..."
-- Omar Ahmed, Chairman of the Board of CAIR (Council of American Islamic Relations), San Ramon Valley Herald, July 1998
