lurqo-

Now this is simply blatantly untrue. These people were missionaries. Islam does not tolerate any (and I do mean any) attempt to convert believers in Islam to other faiths. The penalty for even attempting to do so is quite specific - death. That's death to the convertor and the converted. Moreover, anyone who carries out the sentence is to be praised, and will be rewarded by Allah.

now... i trust you... and know that you are unbiased
and studious and well educated... and etc.

but... i know you just read a book on the middle east
written by a non middle easterner... and...

i would just feel more comfortable hearing what you
just said coming from the mouth of an unbiased,
studious, well educated muslim... if you get my
drift.

i'm leaning toward thinking you are correct because
i remember the death sentence deal with salman rushdie,
but i just want to hear it from the muslim mouth. do
you know any of them?
