In religious wars, the enemy cannot be negotiated with, reasoned with, or trusted. For his desire to murder you is the word of his God. He will not abandon it, just as Christians would not deny the virgin birth, nor Jews suddenly concede that Christ was the son of God and the fulfillment of prophecy. Islam requires the domination of all other people and religions, do you suppose they will ever recant the central tenet of their faith?
Must we respect all other religions, no matter what they teach? Or does the time come when people must confront reality, and draw the line. Aztec sun worshipers could not practice today, they sacrificed virgins. Yaqui followers are gone, their sacrament was hallucinogenic plants.
Freedom of speech does not include shouting "fire" in a crowded theater, or slander, or inciting a riot. Freedom of religion should not apply to those whos God wants them to kill everyone else, and conveys sainthood on them if they perish doing it.
Don't forget, we are the infidels. They never will.
