[edit] 'islamaphobic'?
I would like to request patience by the original author/authors for my editing (deleting) of the word 'islamaphobic' in the passage about the Barnabas Fund's published works regarding Islam and western society. To call them islamaphobic, or indeed truthful is surely, in the context of this website, a matter of opinion and should therefore be left to the readers of those books to make up their own minds. I did toy with the phrase '..some have interpreted them as islamaphobic' but one might as well (in order to be impartial - which I assume an encyclopedia should strive to be) then say ..'and others have interpreted as true'. You would then have to state opinions on both sides concerning practically everything in every article. The preceding words.. 'At the same time, Barnabas Fund officials are quite opposed to the trend of Christian conversions to other religions in Western countries..' has validity because as an organisation which believes that the Gospels and the messages therein are true they are bound (logically) to be opposed to conversion to other religions. This makes the statement more than just opinion unlike the 'islamaphodic' reference which follows.
In gratitude for your understanding. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dullitch (talk • contribs) 12:51, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
