Foxy your "scholarly" volume on Islam by John A. Williams was published in 1961,62. It was probably written in the 1950s
May I suggest you update your knowledge on Islam, post 9/11. Posted by Philip Tang, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 11:03:51 PM

That's a bit rich, coming from you, Philip Tang.
>>May I suggest you update your knowledge on Islam, post 9/11.<< Your own views on Islam haven't shifted from the seventh century, have they? If anyone suggests that there are terrorist extremists in other religions too, what is your response? "Look at what rhey wrote in the seventh century." It's your mantra. Your comforter. Your blanky. Your views have no standing here, I'm afraid, since you refuse to engage in a discussion, instead using the thread as yet another soap-box for your fear and loathing.

Phillip,
I know a lecturer in modern Islam and tried to get him to talk to Policarp/Boaz et al who has similar views to you he said then that people of that mindset just want to tell not listen. I suspect he would suggest the same about your posts. Last visit from me here. Posted by examinator, Thursday, 14 January 2010 8:55:11 AM

When I muse idealistically for a moment visa vi topics like this, my thoughts often wander to that part of the world held "Holy/Sacred" to members of Islam, Judaism and Christianity.
There is the Al Aqsa mosque, the Temple Mount and it was also a site of significance in particular to the Christian crusaders of old http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isra_and_Mi%27raj Still, I have to wonder (and assuming there is a God for a moment) if it is pleasing to said Deity that all 3 lineages could and perhaps should come together in Body, Heart and Mind at this location and that there will be no "New Peace" until "we" do. There appears though at present to be a need for significant remedial programs to bring us as a collective to the point we we accept one another to the extent that we can share with one another.

examinator,
Many of our views are based on incontrovertible evidence given by people who knows Islam first hand. For example, Ali Sina, from http://www.faithfreedom.org/ , MA Khan from http://www.islam-watch.org/iw-new/index.php and Wafa Sultan (together with Nona Darwish and Ayaan Ali) who has identified that Islam and the Qu’ran as the root cause of terrorism. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sI8AQ3sGdDg&feature=related Rather strange that Pericles would make accusations such as “...you refuse to engage in a discussion”, when in fact, it is he who has completely avoided discussing why he thinks Islam is a peaceful "religion" but would prefer to label critics of Islam, “Islamophobes” Posted by Philip Tang, Friday, 15 January 2010 1:44:36 AM
