But then again, Blair is entitled to his admiration for military achievement, having presided over the ongoing disaster of Iraq. If he thinks Islam is so wonderful, one may perhaps wonder why he turned last year to Roman Catholicism. As Ajmal Masroor put it, "Why would Blair turn to the older versions of God's testament when there is the Quran?" Still, no-one would deny that religion is very important to Tony Blair. In government, he promoted faith schools and "faith-based" initiatives. There were

Weihnachtsabend- allen Ernstes fragen lassen, warum er nicht den Islam gewählt hat? Und sich belehren lassen, wie rückschrittlich und schlecht die katholische Kirche ist? Wie schlecht der Ruf der katholischen Christen in der arabischen Welt ist? Der Artikel von Ajmal Masroor ist nicht nur extrem arrogant, er zeigt auch, dass religiöse Toleranz von der christlichen Seite mit religiöser Ignoranz von der muslimischen Seite beantwortet wird. Die Argumente sind haarsträubend:

history, it always seems to include a mention, however oblique, of what Christianity did to Islam several hundred years ago. They have a long memory, it is said. But they always ignore the present while chewing on the past. Here's a classic example; a column by a Muslim who cannot understand how Tony Blair could possibly become a Catholic. After all, he has said good things about Islam, and that mean old Catholic church has done some awful things.... how could Blair self-identify with pedophiles, anti-science Popes,

PM Tony Blair has recently become a Roman Catholic (Strange, I didn’t know any where left over there!). As usual the peaceful and tolerant members of the ‘Religion of Perpetual Outrage’ are not happy.

One can well imagine what would happen if a Christian or Jew made similar comments.
