Every now and then a true liberal suddenly finds the need to acknowledge there are problems with current liberal evaluation of the world. Sam Harris wrote a book critical of all religion and the effect of the feedback has altered his thinking. Hat Tip to the Prairie Pundit for pointing out this recommended read.
Head-in-the-Sand Liberals: But my correspondence with liberals has convinced me that liberalism has grown dangerously out of touch with the realities of our world — specifically with what devout Muslims actually believe about the West, about paradise and about the ultimate ascendance of their faith.
The truth is that there is every reason to believe that a terrifying number of the world's Muslims now view all political and moral questions in terms of their affiliation with Islam. This leads them to rally to the cause of other Muslims no matter how sociopathic their behavior. This benighted religious solidarity may be the greatest problem facing civilization and yet it is regularly misconstrued, ignored or obfuscated by liberals.
What other people believe is a problem when those other people believe that killing gains divine favor and eternal reward. It is a really big problem when those other people have access to the means of mass murder.
