where do we find the islamic reformation and enlightenment? Same place as the Chinese reformation and enlightnement (BTW, you you forget the Renaissance). And the Korean. And the MesoAmerican. Different cultures have different histories and go through different things at different times. And effect each other. muslims have some serious catching up to do And so does 90% of the world. Do you propose exterminating them? Make the Holocaust look like a minor burp? The largest Muslim nation on earth is Indonesia. When did they attack us? What happened to American Indians who contiunued to practice their native religions and accept Christianity? Don't worry about the mote in your neighbor's eye, worry about the log in your own. Even more convenient was the word of Saint Augustine, who, in the fifth century, had first enunciated the Christian notion of a just war: one waged to right an injustice or wrong by another nation, one such wrong being (by implication) not being Christian. randomhouse.com Is the First Amwendment just "a scrap of paper"?
