It's with these words of Ayaan Hirsi Ali, as expressed in her book; Infidel that I respond to the complaints of the morose Muslims.

Ms. Ali wrote, that "for a Muslim, to be an apostste is the worst thing possible. Christians can cease to believe in God: that is a personal matter that affects only their eternal soul. But for a Muslim to cease believing in Allah is a lethal offence. Apostates merit death:on that, the Quran and the hadith are clear. For a Muslim woman to abjure her faith is the worst kind of disobedience to God, {take particular attention to this enigmatic reason, that is given in today supposedly enlightened milieu} ***because it comes from the lowest, most impure element in society. IT CRIES OUT FOR GOD'S PUNISHMENT." Moreover, we are supposed to believe that they are offended by symbols.
