Dear Carl,

Please do. But please note that if they do not find it funny, I am not 
about to change my ways on the basis of that judgment.Taken in its 
entirety, Islam is almost as humorless as the National Organization of Women.

I will be very interested to see how this case plays out. *If* he is found 
guilty (note the intrusion of western jurisprudence here), this will 
highlight an interesting contradiction. I gave a talk on Islam and the 
Christian faith last Monday night on the WSU campus. I believe the 
gentlemen arrested was one of my questioners there, a man who challenged my 
thesis that Islam is inherently militant. We will see if he really believed 
what he was saying.

In the meantime, the only thing that could make liberals sympathetic to 
Islam -- a religion that dresses their women by rolling them up in the 
carpet -- is the fact that it is largely non-white (mostly), non-European 
(for the moment), and non-Christian (forever).

Cordially,

Douglas Wilson
