As extremists increasingly claim it is not, and attack Western values not only through rhetoric but acts of violence, many Muslims find themselves being forced to respond by re-examining their values.
Here two Britons, both born into the Muslim faith, explain why they have ended up following different paths as far as their religion is concerned.

Islam is compatible but some of its adherents are still mired in tribal paternalism. As example, if one man were to speak about about inclusion of women in the cultural sphere, that man would be labeled 'kafir'.
To a previous thread, enough muslims consider a woman who wants to educate herself and work as an unbeliever! Go figure! Despite the fact that she is divorced, has to raise 3 chirren, and men are by nature, may not be trustworthy.
