Your "place?" You ARE and American, yes? It is your place to criticize anything you damned well like.

> I have no idea what it means to live as a Muslim

That seems impressively unlikely. But if it's true, it speaks to MASSIVE ignorance on your part.

> you don't post unless you can say something negative.

It's called "constructive criticism." I'm not a yes-man.

Well, sure. But, for me to criticize someone for not living up to what I believe to be the standards of his faith is absurd. My opinion would be irrelevant and would be met with the contempt it deserves.

Huh? I am not now nor have I ever been a Muslim. If I were to claim that I know what it's like to be Muslim, I would be a liar. How would I know what it means to live as a Muslim? I'm not one.

You haven't got to the "constructive" part, yet.
