“It is nothing short of staggering that the myth of Islamic tolerance could have gained such currency in the teeth of Muhammad’s open contempt and hatred for Jews and Christians, incitements of violence against them, and calls that they be converted or subjugated. While human nature is everywhere the same and Muslims can, of course, act as tolerantly as anyone else, the example of Muhammad, the highest model for human behavior, constantly pulls them in a different direction. The fact that Western analysts continue to ignore all this demonstrates the ease with which people can be convinced of something they wish to believe, regardless of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.” ~ Robert Spencer, "The Truth About Muhammed"

I've heard about this book before, Eyes. I need to get a copy of it. It would be nice if all liberals would also read it, but we know that will never happen. Perhaps a few moderate liberals will, but I'll not hold my breath.
The fact that liberals consider Americans, and especially Christians, to be intolerant is too ridiculous for words. Their mindset only leads me to conclude that they hate America. Shame.
Nice excerpt! Spencer exposes the intolerance of the Islamist and the stupidity of the leftist yet again!
Hi Gayle, They have a hard time telling the difference between good things and bad things, unless of course it directly impacts them. Rotten food for the Iraqi's during the oil-for-food program was just fine, but serve a leftard a steak too well done and all hell breaks loose! Bubble people....
Eyes-I wrote something about the inability of the emerging church types(can you say leftista?) to accept Absolute Truth and why it enables evil...
Hard times, it's good to have friends!
