#1 Good find, 5089.

Even the moral relativists ought to be able to recognize that Islam is NOT just another religion, no better nor worse than the others. Take all the 'religious' references away and compare Islam and Judeo-Christianity, based on their written foundations, the Koran and the Bible.
1) Koran: written/transcribed by one person, in a short period of time, who was exposed to a small area of the world - and a primitive, barbaric area at that.
2) Bible: compiled over thousands of years from the experiences of many people throughout a larger part of the world, including several of the test grounds for civilization as we know it.
As a general guide for living and tool for understanding oneself and mankind which book, and thus which religion, should better fit the 'logical' moral relativist/secular humanist perspective?

#2 Muslims are compelled to believe that Mohammad was the last "prophet" whose purpose was to create believers of the Arab deity ("Allah"), by eradicating other religions. Muslims pose respect for seculars, Christians, Jews, Hindus, etc, where we are more powerful. If we decline, they will dominate this world.
