Islam, just like the other religions, is incompatible with the 21st century. Religion used to claim to be the answer to all phenomena, whether it be medicine, natural disasters, the cosmos or our morality. The truth is, that Muslims are just as brainwashed as the Christians who believe in the Virgin Mary or Jews being the chosen ones by God. I would dare say most religious people don't genuinely believe the world is only 3000 years old, or the story that Muhammed flew to heaven on a winged horse, but yet a significant number of people do and are deeply offended when you do question it. For as ridiculous as the Second Amendment is in the USA, they had it right to keep religion out of politics. Find a country that adopted full secularism and fell into tyranny. Osboro has just as much of a right to call any organised religion 'medieval'. People need to get off their moral high horse. We have freedom of speech to criticise, which many religious states would never grant you that right, and would much rather see countries like the UK capitulate those rights since religion is authoritarian by nature. If people cannot make the distinction between holistically criticising religion, and criticising a homogenous group based on their faith, then that's your problem and not the person who has the right to question religion.
