Dear Mr Muslim,

Your comments only reinforce that Islam is an ancient religion that has no relevance to the modern world. Your only references seem to be old and irrelevant to the situation we have today. If Islam cannot be modernised then it should be disbanded because the principles it espouses are of violence and hatred. Sure, you will accuse me of reading selective passages, but no more than I can accuse you of the same.

By the way, try Googling Islam and Hatred, or Islam and Terrorist, or Islam and Intolerance, or Islam and Opression, or Islam and....I think you get the point....oops I forgot, you wont because you sing the mantra of "Islam is a religion of Peace and Love" when the rest of the world is singing along to the tune of "Islam is a religion of violence and hatred". You believe that any critism of Islam must be by Infidels who by design will oppose Islam at every turn.

Well Mr Muslim, I'm going to get a T Shirt with "Infidel and Proud of it" plastered on it, and I encourage all others who think the same to do the same. Maybe, just maybe, then we will start to raise a profile of the anti Islamist movement that must exist in order to rid the world of the radicals that put us all at risk (infidel or not).
