My problem with Islam is that it supports Sharia law, giving fertile ground for people that want to impose it, by force if necessary. There is no version of Sharia law that is in any way compatible with liberal western values. Take a hard look at this, particularly the "making sharia the official law of the land" question:

A large majority of Muslims world wide support making Sharia law the "law of the land". That thought should terrify every liberal. What could possibly motivate something like a billion people to support such a reactionary goal? Religion, in this case Islam.

Thank you for being clear in this matter. You are knowingly anti-Muslim and, apparently, proud of it. I personally find that sort of thinking narrow-minded and not worthy of intelligent people. But, given that your position is clear, I probably can't change your opinion.

Yes, unlike you I am far too "narrow minded" to be an apologist for a belief system that commands such things as lashing for fornication of any sort, and amputating hands for theft. You are completely correct in this.
