Well applying logic and reason to any religion and isn't going to stand up. However that's not the debate here. One of my top students is a well respected muslim scholar. Now he is completely comfortable with my hard drinking, fornicating ways. Just as I am with his non-pork eating religious lifestyle. We don't care that our views are diametrically opposed because we respect each other. I don't stop spouting my secular humanist ideas and he doesn't worry about talking about Islam. The religion isn't what makes the man good. He is a good man who just happens to be a muslim. I would trust him with my life any day. I have met many good muslims over the years, too many in fact to believe the media hype and crap spouted. If you armed the EDL with AK47s and very little law enforcement I am sure we would see absolute mayhem. It isn't the religion at fault. It is the people. The only way to change them is to be a beacon of freedom and fairness so they have an example to follow.
