To be precise: no.

Now that would be a pretty low set of expectations indeed.
Since you are apparently reluctant to accept:
1) innumerable historical instances of violence and war committed by thoroughly mainstream muslims,
2) innumerable historical examples of the duplicity of muslims who effected conquest by deceit, initially flying a flag of peaceful coexistence and tolerance of other religions/cultures only to rip away the masque and prosecute war against the infidels with a savage vengeance,
3) innumerable verifiable verses cited from the Qur'an, which make crystal-clear alla-uzza's unwillingness to tolerate another religion or god than himself, or allow any of his believers to so tolerate in their proximity (when they can effect any change)
4) a plenitude of citations of other holy script and Sharia law widely accepted by (minimally) a simple majority of mainstream muslims which affirm, support, or augment the intolerant proscriptions of the Qur'an.
5) Islam's longstanding historical record of Qur'an-based oppression, disregard for, and disenfranchisement of women
as factual source material...
There's really no reasoning with you.
You're a regular Henri-Phillippe Petain, aren't you?
Ha ha ha
A.A.C.
So let's see -
Unless you're being absurd again, a simple pronouncement of "innumerable", "plenitude" or "longstanding" turns statements into facts.
Is this a variation of the " Because I say so " explanation ?
Is the prevailing wind blowing from Vichy today? (to misquote from Casablanca) One would think so!
