The danger of fundamentalist religious belief is not limited to any particular belief set within that larger group. Fundy muslims blow up nightclubs, fundy christians blow up abortion clinics. Fundy muslims babble about allahs laws, fundy christians cast yahwehs vote. They aren't dangerous, in either case, because they are christian or muslim, but because they're fundy nutjobs.
That's why I don't worry about you, point of fact. Your not a literalist who truly believes. The worst I expect of you is to say silly shit, and by and large, that's the worst I expect of any particular muslim.
