Could you give some example of your disdain for religious persecution? I don't under why anyone would ask someone to show the good of another religion unless that individual has concluded there is no good.

Do you understand the subtle ways those who have no faith disdain any religion as opportunity presents itself.

He can't provide that . He is intellectually smug and can't point to where Islam is spread though the process of intellectual persuasion. Islam is warring everywhere in the world. It is against the Christian the Jew the Buddhist the Hindu the atheist.

Tom can only offer a fantasy in his mind not actual examples. Islam has led to the bondage of the entire race of women who are unfortunate enough to be born where it is the law. Its history is of violence and barbarism and can offer nothing to a modern world except a reminder of the danger of fanaticism.
