Even if you're incapable or unwilling to understand my (and Case's it seems) 
view about the intellectual level, please keep your opinions about Islam to 
yourself. The "fear tactics" you mention has nothing to do with Islam, but only 
the fanatics using it to promote their own distorted version of Islam. Fanatic 
Christians are just as "relieved" from intellectual values as fanatic Moslems. 
So don't use the MoQ to demote or promote religious beliefs, that's *not* what 
the MoQ is about.
