" Muslims intellectuals are just like non-muslim intellectuals. Non-muslim liberal \people say that non-muslims should be tolerant and accepting to muslims.
Muslim intellectuals also say that non-muslims should be tolerant and accepting to muslims.

This shows that muslim intellectuals are no less enlightenened than their non-muslim counterparts."

You forget to mention the very relevant points that 'Islamic terrorists demand that non-muslims should be tolerant and accepting and submit to muslims.'

and

'strident Islamists demand that non-muslims should be tolerant and accepting and submit to muslims."

So, basically, you've made no point at all. And you basically show that muslim intellectuals are no less unenlightened than their non-muslim counterparts.
