You left out jihad, taqiyya, djinns, shaitan, hajj, a so-called 'prophet' with many wives , one of which was a nine year old married at 53, muezzins, facing mecca 5 times a day and assorted other superstitions which we are happy to let you maintain - but which will not be tolerated being imposed on other people.

"There is no piont in arguing over petty stuff, while we have got tremendous things to resolve, barriers to surmount..."

It's really only the Muslims who have these problems - as they come into contact with the Western world and the 21st century.

"......and sacred deeds to carry out. "

And what would that be then - blowing up Shia's in market places - or Israelis and Westerners and Indians in Indian hotels, or running a terrorist organisation hell bent (literally) on wiping out Israel? Or something a little more scientific such as this new development?
