Costly Free Speech?
As I sit in the Phoenix Airport, the recent convergence of Islam and the West perculates. The thought of an Islamic Europe continues to spark conversation. As the recent movie V for Vendetta illustrates, the issue even entreats popular culture. Joseph Pearce comments that Europe's, or in this particular case, England's, willingness endure Islam's banter is more capacious than that of other communities, namely, social and religious conservatives.
I tend to agree with Pearce's opinion that this whole affair would be more palatable if folks would be more honest in their appraisal of Islam as a religion of peace.

If you are going to say Islam is a religion of peace, I am going to say Christianity is a religion of NON-JUDGEMENTAL PEOPLE!
