Well then you will be satisfied with your case not being good enough to get beyond reasonable doubt. The jury is still hung.
Your argument is one of collective judgement. Because you have anecdotal knowledge of what some ex-Muslims and some who remain Muslims say... I must ignore my own anecdotal evidence of what other Muslims say who are reformists or moderates? Even if what you hear represents most, you cannot be serious to claim that those who are not represented by that are to be ignored, shut out, lumped in with the majority.

What I find to be the most repulsive argument is when people call those Muslims who truly believe their religion to be one of peace either liars or ignorant. Exactly what does that accomplish? Maybe it helps me that I don't believe any religious viewpoint to be anymore ignorant or enlightened than another, regardless of what a book says.
Whether or not they are the "true believers", I think it is best to SUPPORT those Muslims who are reformers and moderates rather than to ATTACK them as being part of the enemy or of being untrue to themselves (which is even more ridiculous, as this is to say "You should be with the enemy." ^#$# retarded argument, I swear- it's like people are attempting to strengthen the enemy).
It sounds to me that half the people who are so terrified by Islamicism that they attack all of the Muslim world are trying to do the preaching in favor of the enemy! Listen to yourself. You are calling the only people who actually have a snowball's chance in Hell of reforming Islam LIARS and CHARLETANS. You insult the good guys more than the bad guys!
