I was hoping you'd get it. Actually he does have a point, but he keeps leaving out one nasty but important detail. In this country, if you choose to chuck the religion you were taught, the most you risk is pi$$ing off your parents. Over there in allaland, you might literally lose your head. A small but important detail when attempting to establish the moral equivalency of religions outside the context of how they relate to political power structures. Of course if you miss it, you can always underline.
