Those who are in the habit of decrying non-Muslims should first examine why Muslims are so backward. Although sixty percent of the oil wealth is in Muslim countries, the fifty seven Islamic nations have only five hundred universities. Compared to this, in the U.S. alone there are five thousand universities. The result is apparent for all to see. Muslims have not invented anything so far, while those who live in the West are planning to land on Mars (I doubt if most Muslims are even aware that there are other worlds out there beside our own). It is this lack of education that has turned the 1.5 billion Muslims on the planet into virtual paupers, while the Jews (who number only twelve to fifteen million) are way ahead in science and technology.
Again, education has made Christians in the West very tolerant (I’m not referring to the small minority which deliberately attacks or provokes Muslims, since there are psychos in every society, including our own). They do not react violently if their beliefs are challenged. They don’t give a damn whether their neighbour drinks cow piss or camel piss, as long as they don’t create any trouble. And they’re not bothered if their employee is heavily bearded or clean shaven, as long as he does his work honestly. They’re not scared that if they allow people of other faiths to settle in the U.S., the locals will convert to the new religions. They know that the new settlers will be absorbed in their society and become useful members. This, then, is the difference between us and them.
