Debate re: Islam/Evolution, & Islam btw a "Bright"(atheist?) & Muslim & ex-Muslim.
I've gotten pretty deep into reading this, so much so it seems to be taking most of my time away from reading/replying on the other MBs I frequent right now. There is a "Bright"(apparently, a name which atheists, agnostics, etc. have created as a name with fewer negative conotations), an ex-adherent of Islam, and a defender of Islam. There are more than just three, but the three primary participants appear to be Emo(the "Bright" in Scotland), Abu Rashid in Australia(the defender of Islam) and a Mr. E. F. Mughal(not sure if I got his initials right...anyway, he is the ex-follower of Islam & listed as being in both Islamabad & Glasgow). This is the link

I already asked Pryce in a PM if posting a link to another MB thread is okay. Anyway, I find their discussion quite interesting, if very lengthy(21 pages of very lengthy posts). But I'm only gonna manage a page or two more before I've gotta crash for the night!
Amazingly civil discussion, considering it involves religion(of course, I've only read the first three pages so far).
