The view from > inside is rather different from that on the outside. This is certainly an example of one sentence which does not follow from the one before. All religions have cultural trappings. The view one Muslim has of their religion would be "merely" that persons opinion. It has no special insight into the the religion as a whole. A Muslim from Bradford, UK, has no idea of the insights from "inside" the religion that match the views or ideas of a Phillipino Muslim. >> I disagree.

You have stopped trying to refute anything I say and now appeal to ridicule or call an authority fallacy. This example is quite funny, and I hope you intended it in that manner. I seriously hope you do not view Muslims as a different species from "non-Muslims" where we are unable to ask them questions and partake / observe their rituals and practices. Maybe you do, it would explain lots.

Maybe you do, it would explain lots. If that was meant to be rhetorical then reply is unnecessary.
