Oh dear, Advocate, you've just been copying and pasting from the internet, and not citing your sources!

Your little diatribe towards Atheists is taken and lifted straight off http://www.islaminfo.com/detail.php?ID=28

I did think the police analogy was a bit uncharacteristically articulate.

At the risk (and yes, it is a risk) of creating yet another labyrinthine diversion from this already pointless discussion, what you just posted is utterly false. It presupposes Atheism does not provide hope; that Islam is necessarily correct; and that Islam is correct because it says it is.

Hardly the reasoning of a sound mind. Q.E.D.
