in my gut feeling, in spite of a lot of the 'news' lately, this sorta stuff is just wrong...
I haven't participated on this thread until now because indeed this thread's sole purpose seems to be to mock.

Yet, Mike, I challenge you to show us the rhetoric on the essential issue of the dangers of Islam to the non-Islamic world.

A good example would be the "Goodbye Europe" thread. If you wish to argue that the essential points and proofs of that thread are wrong, please do so. While there are always people around who base their opinions heavily on emotion and less on fact, there are many people here ready to listen to reason.

Regarding your comparison of Christianity to Islam with regard to the treatment of women based on irrevocable religious doctrine, I don't see the comparison. Enliighten us.

You have a gut feeling. Sometimes that's good. Yet you brush away recent years' "news" and the vast amount of information now openly and easily accessable to one and all in these matters.

I'm willing to face facts. Are you? If some of us here have got them wrong, correct us.
