..."That so many of my liberal friends seem to champion the greatest oppressors of women, homosexuals and artists is mind boggling to say the least."

A very to the point remark Christopher. Very well put. In fact, it just about sums up the whole analysis in regard to the discussion on, and position of, islam. The stance taken by liberals and/or 'progressive' forces in the world on islam is almost unbelievably naive (and very dangerous).
