Alicia is right about Islam

Reader comment on item: Advice to Non-Muslim Women against Marrying Muslim Men
in response to reader comment: Islam is the worst, Muslim countries will never prosper they just get worse

Dear Dr Pipes, your reader Alicia is right when she says that Islamic countries will never prosper. For the last several decades, unprecedented amount of oil wealth has flown into Islam-occupied countries but they have little to show for that wealth in terms of education, progress in arts and sciences and thought, or in terms of economic and industrial progress.

But non-Muslims can better than doing nothing and just complaining. We need to challenge Muslims to carry their weight in this world. Just saying that Islam is the best is not enough. Show us the results.
