Europe is embracing suicide if they swallow what you propose; because if Islam was spiritual, world history would be entirely different. The truth is that the Koran is full of hate and intolerance. Look around. How many millions have been killed in Africa??? How many black Africans look in their mirrors and say "Thank Allah--I am an Arab? Therefore, I have Allah's blessing when I enslave blacks even if they are Muslim."
When non-believers are free to practice their religions openly in Islamic countries and when Muslims are free to convert to another religion withour fear, then and only then will I be ready to consider multi-culturism.
