I think he takes a very balanced and objective view mate. He never makes excuses for the acts, he doesn't deny that there is a problem of an extremist strand in Islam. Yet he also doesn't make sweeping statements that are anti Islamic.
Also, when discussing the causes of Islamic extremism he is balanced in that he can see,and has often said, that the causes are more complex than those often put forward. Saying that he doesn't want all the mosques closed doesn't mean he is in denial that there is an issue that needs addressing.

Sure, and me pointing out some factual events and a whole section of terrorism the Anthropologist fellow omitted doesnt make me the reverse to him or anti education either.

Of course not but terms like "so called educated" can hardly be interpreted as a ringing endorsement of education either. I can not speak for Ryan or anyone else, but it is certainly not my intention to polarise debate, far from it. I have never suggested people disagreeing must somehow take the reverse position of any point that I am making, or an argument I agree with, but it is something that I have thrown in my face everyday. People seem unable or unwilling to tolerate anything but one extreme or another. Life in my experience is never ever that simple.
