I know a lot of the secularists. They are born Muslim, but eschew the mosque, enjoy an alcoholic beverage or two now and then, dress western, emulate western culture and even make fun of the very devout.

That comment above tends to bring out the screaming know-it-alls, but they'll just have to deal with it. Here...I'll even say the phrase that sends them into orbit: Not all Muslims are terrorists. ;-)

I’m waiting for one moderate Muslim to criticize his brother terrorists. Still waiting...

“Not all Muslims are terrorists.”

Not all Muslims are Muslim, is what you say.

Yea, I mean, I have a friend who is “Muslim” but she’s pretty much never been to a mosque, she dresses completely normally, and besides being a bit more moral than other teens in the areas any religion would approve of (ie wait until marriage) she’s completely normal.

That being said, I fully realize that there are several million of her co-religionists who would cheerfully kill her just for living the way she does, and 90% of the others would wholeheartedly condemn her as damned.

There may be moderate Muslims, but there is no moderate Islam.

You shall recieve ten lashes with a wet noodle for the sacrelege of going against the standard FR mantra!

Shame on thee!
