Thanks Ron Very interesting article. I thought this was telling: As for the Islamic world, it was left behind. Even today Muslim countries struggle to catch up. It is a difficult task, for they are seeking to reconcile their own culture with modern concepts that are uniquely western. Invariably this tension has led to charges among Muslims that their religion and their world is being sold out. Those Muslim leaders who have dealt with the West have been labeled apostates and sometimes targeted by jihad warriors. Indeed, the vast majority of Islamist terrorism over the last century has been aimed at other Muslims. The division, starkly put, is between those who wish to adopt the benefits of Western culture while retaining a devotion to Islam and those who consider any concession to the West to be an abjuration of faith. In short, it is a division between the medieval and the modern worlds.

It may not be widely known, but people need to start realizing that there are approx. ONE HUNDRED SIXTY SEVEN THOUSAND Christians that die every year in the world, because they name the name of Jesus, and will not deny Him. Want to know how many that amount to? That amounts to about two 9-11 murderous acts.....PER MONTH. Why do we not know...because it's not happening in Boston...or Oakland...or Tulsa....yet. The places where this mostly happens?? China India Indonesia Sudan much in Middle east and not just Muslims...check this site out: hinduunity.org
