"Never" is a very strong word. To what extent is the difference in our cultures an essential difference and to what extent simply that ours is more modernized? ""

I have to recognize that you are right and I too think on that point just like you, I have to be more careful my defect is that I write what comes to my mind with out going over it and sometimes mistakes are being made.

You are completely right about modernization timeline. As a Jew I have to recognize that More then 3000 years ago Jews were fanatics , Josua and King David WERE ORDERED BY GOD to execute every single male in the lands he conquered, other religions weren't accepted in trhe Land of Israel people were executed for heresy and adultery besides others, In the dark ages Christians executed for the same reasons and the Crusaders used to burn and kill all Jews on the way to the holy land, but we both evoliucionazied and modernized, the pope and the Vatican asked to be excused for past horror. we both still have some fanatics but happily they are a small minority without having the control of the state and education system.

NEVER is to strong and to definitive, but it will take some generations and non religious Education, Modernization, separation of state and church, democracy and all the confront of the western civilization for islamic states and people to accept our existence out of the Islamic Rule
