DooDahMan saysForce them till they agree to accept IslamDidn't the Catholic church do something similar all over the Americas ? If my memory is correct, quite a few were killed as well for not being willing to convert
Western religions were, indeed, barbaric a century ago. Then there was reformation. Women are no longer stoned to death in the public square for adultery. Nobody is burned at the stake for witchcraft. Yet we see gruesome executions in various Islamic countries in modern times. We see horrific punishments for "crimes" that westerners don't even believe to be crimes. At the very least, Islam is not compatible with the ideals and goals of the western world.

If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found; Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife ...Deuteronomy 22:28-9
Maybe a good idea to find a replacement for religion.
So Christians who do those things are being bad Christians, while Muslims who do those things are being good Muslims.
No other religion in Europe makes so many demands
PeopleUnited saysIsn’t that a non answer to the question?
This is something I learned quite some time back as a facilitator and also from our wonderful politicians, mostly the latter.
Here are some of the greatest scientists in history who were also deeply committed to their Christian faiths.
I don't know. I think Judaism may. Find a prominent Jew that speaks out against illegal immigration or accepting "refugees" when they are talking about any other country other than Israel.
PeopleUnited saysAaaand once again a non answer to the question.
Aaaand once again we gladly accept this kind of response from our elected officials and have no problem putting back into office time and time again.
Also see comment #274. Homie knows how this game is played, not my first time on an Internet forum
PeopleUnited saysThe very real consequences of not answering this question are playing out around the world and perhaps in a neighborhood near you
Just from me not answering a question on an internet forum ?
Perhaps a diazepam or two is in order
Mmmm koubideh and Persian cucumbers! I don’t know about you but I’m glad they set up shop close to my home.
The kitchen, led by Rose Market's longtime Iranian chef, is again churning out kebabs, koubideh, khoresh (stews), tahdig (crispy-bottomed rice), wraps, salads and other dishes. Rose International Market will now serve chicken koubideh, a kebab made from ground chicken, onion and spices, which customers had often requested at the old store, according to staff.
You can order kebabs with lavash bread, on top of white basmati rice or as a "super sandwich," wrapped with vegetables, onion and tomato. All meats are halal.
The produce section includes both standard and specialty produce, such as Persian cucumbers, sour cherries (when in season) and green almonds.
A sense of community and pride in one’s tradition is a stabilizing force. There are ex-patriot ethnic groups that happen to be Muslim, thinking of the Iranians in particular, with their own larger culture and history, and enrich the experience of living in America. The call to literal Jihad is the furthest thing from their mind. Mmmm koubideh and Persian cucumbers! I don’t know about you but I’m glad they set up shop close to my home.

I would be interested in arguments for the merits of Islam and/or why any non-Moslem would consider it a good thing if more Moslems lived in their town or neighborhood.
