I Beg to Differ - "The Islamic laws, so brutally dispensed in various parts of the Muslim world, are from a Semitic book of tribal law we know as the book of Leviticus. In the Christian Bible, this book follows Exodus, and is considered by Christian Fundamentalists, as well as a few other groups, as the actual and unerring words of God ( a.k.a. Allah, Jehovah, YHWH, etc.) The basic moral and ethical codes of each of these groups are quite similar. The difference (and it's a big one) is that western nations are not theocracies anymore"
