re: #111 spudly
That is a poor argument. Being required by religion to do something doesn’t mean it WILL happen, just that the adherents would like it to happen.
You may say it’s a “poor argument,” but by admitting that Muslims can and do choose not to follow the more extreme fundamentalist dictates of Islam, you’re actually agreeing with my point. Choosing not to practice extremist dogma is what we call “moderation.”
