That'S what many Islamic people living in the West do not want to realise when embracing some of the Western rights and liberties, at the cost of some of the old Muhammedan practices. Muhammad did not know "some yes, some no." He only knew "all or nothing at all".

Tolerance was not really a shining characteristic of this man
Don't blame him . Religions are not cooking recipes. Accept it in block or reject it in block. No pincing and slicing. Take the package or drop the package. Otherwise it's a heresy, declare your new religion already.

Have no illusions, all the facts and arguments were thrown at D'Souza. The conclusion was completely unfavourable to his proposition both rhetorically and dialectically. That's why he managed to trigger a debate in the first place anyway.

But that's the idea. Get these "untrue Muslims" as you call them on our side against the conqueror-wannabes. Set the hostages free and turn them on their captors.
