Tell me how mainstream Islam views apostasy, freedom of thought and
speech, and subjugation of women. Then I will tell you whether it
belongs in a discussion as a viable partner in a western country -- or
indeed as a partner in any successful country.
Until then, this is all double-talk. "Religion of peace and tolerance"
is just trying to cover up with the Big Lie.
Muslim views of apostasy and freedom of speech and thought make the
contention about tolerance ridiculous.
Calling it the religion of peace is just absurd. So absurd that it
does not require discussion.
