Face the Truth
May 28, 2005
On Thursday last, I linked to this post where Juan Cole said:
All religions produce fanatics at the same rate.
Today, I read this from Robert Spencer:
All religions are not the same, and do not have the same capacity to inspire violence. As un-PC as that is, it is the truth. It must be faced. Regan reflects conventional PC wisdom, to be sure -- views that are held across the spectrum, from the New York Times to National Review -- and until this wisdom is seen for the hollow and deceptive thing it is, we are all that much more vulnerable.
[Emphasis mine]
One of them has to be wrong. Hint: It ain't Spencer, and I state that based on my experience in the Middle East.
