I accept that which is rational, good and wholesome and discard the rest.

You know for true Muslims I think Islam makes more sense than Christians. The extremists make it look really bad and modernisation makes it like all religions look rediculous. I think Islam> Christianity as far as believability goes. I do not support religion but if it was a choice between the two Islam wins.

I did thanks Chap! You know and I don't mean this as an insult to you in anyway but you do fit the bill. Christians I meet on here and in life are filled with this silly obliqueness that scares me. More irrational than sensible they don't have their minds down to Earth. While Islam has it's extreme murderous nutbags and while I don't think they attack for religious reasons necessiarily I find that the people that come online here are more practical. They don't attack people directly they simply explain their position and take the criticism with thought more often than not.
