Islam in Europe: perception and reality

[abaris]

I don't go about my day assuming individual Muslims think anything, but as an overall whole culture Islam is highly conservative and reluctant to integrate. That is an observable trend you can see in any given society where Islam has a presence, I'm sorry about it.

Which is the poster definition of broadbrushing, since you only assume and don't look at the individuals. And it's not observable, since there are very different islamic cultures and nations. Bosnia doesn't resemble Turkey, Turkey doesn't resemble Indonesia and Indonesia doesn't resemble Egypt. Just to point out a few. It also doesn't take into account all the different variations of Islam, which isn't only divided by Shia and Sunni, but breaks down into very different interpretations. As can be observed, if one is willing to observe and to inform oneself.
