Since Islam is committed to revealed divine sovereignty as the un-negotiable and unavoidably, discordant mandate, it is hard to see how free and definitive communal acknowledgement of Scottish identity can be possible without it - even with haggis and kilts.

Since Islam eschewing of mystery as a strategic tool against other religions everything within it must be easily comprehendable or appealingly 'logical'. and leaves little sympathetic room for that inner conflict or turmoil that has been so characteristic of Western literature.. No 'to be or not to be' autonomous Hamlet moments. Imagine the response to 'to believe in Allah or not to believe'.. No 'doubting Thomas' either. Doubt and conscience can not be allowed to draw a boundary.. In response a theological offensive could make clear than Islam is not something of a eccentric cousin of Judaism and Christianity but a religico- political movement foundered on a conception of a Deity whose moral essence is incompatible with that of the moral essence of the Judeo-Christian conception. That is, Islam's inculcation that the killing of others can be a pious and sacramental act of obedience to the will of an Allah putatively revealed by the prophet Muhammed. However, in Britain the Archbishop Rowan Williams instead of safeguarding society from the incursion of this morally alien and dangerously warranting conception - actually aggrandizes Islam by promoting Sharia 'law' on the insensible grounds of 'community cohesion' rather than looking to the perilous task of liberating captive Muslims from this aspect of Islam.

If symbols of other political movements and ideologies are proscribed in schools, by the same rationale so should hijabs (and veils) too. In Madrid, at least, they're smart enough to see the political wood lurking behind the religious trees. One invasion, it seems, was enough.

Since Muslims maintain -with the acquiesce of the Anglican intelligensia -that they, and Christians, worship the same Deity, is it only a matter of time before radical elements will want to pray in the cathedrals and churches i n the guise to fostering a specious fellowship and community cohesion. How would Church leaders handle such 'inclusion' without losing capital all round to Islam by seeming to be intolerant,divisive and in particular, intellectually self contradictory if they were to state the actual truth that the moral attributes of the Christian and Muslim conceptions of Deity are so mutually exclusive that they could not possibly be the same 'One' Deity - and therefore, liturgical Islamic presence in a church would be theologically inappropriate, although indiividual Muslims would always be more than welcome.

Implicit in it may be an abhorrence of an aspect of Islamic social practice but if we are to lose control of language and meaning by pathologizing dissent as an involuntary mental illness(and without the ministering of compassion) then Europe is recklessly moving back to an age it thought it had escaped.

It leaves one with the inescapable conclusion that Mohammed is more important to Islam than Allah. The Amadiyya pay little or no attention to the blood curdling Hadiths of Muhammed and no doubt would have absorbed some Hindu pacifism in India where the sect originally started. However in the UK where there are further battles to be won these fundamental differences may go unmentioned by mainstream elements so as to allow their otherwise persecuted pacifism to be perceived as central to Muhammed's instructions where in actual fact ,it is anything but.

Academics are not lone individuals but members of an occupational and intersecting socio-political class and unless they want to be single out as mavericks they will serve up what is expected of them but with sufficient ambiguity and use of literalness to maintain the perception of their authority preserving disinterestedness.

They treat Christians with contempt because they believe in the Trinity, but since Muslims believe that the Qur'an is the Word of Allah then isn't this their 'BI-unity' ?.

Why educate your ideological foes so that their offspring in particular, will be better positioned to despoil the culture that they are religiously ordered to undermine and supplant with that of their own lethally illiberal values. That fact that Muslims is the UK are reported as being the most ‘patriotic’ is no cause for comfort since it is a Britain domesticated by a Sharia law and other laws that in the resolve of their actual application give them special protections. The dominant Lib/Left axis are blinded by the paradigms of other eras that structure them and like lemmings they are incapable of doing otherwise for fear of ceding socio-political power to their old enemies of the Right and at whatever the final cost to themselves and everybody else..
