Convert to Islam or die.
This is not, nor has it ever been a central tenet of Islam. This cannot be viewed in political or historical isolation.
"Convert to Christianity under Papal authority or die by red-hot poker" was a governing principal of church and state - at the center of Europe's most powerful empire, for nearly 200 years. It was never the message of Jesus, regardless of your belief in Christianity. But scripture and political expropriation of pseudo-theology made that it seem so.
I hope someday you have a daughter who marries a an African Muslim. You might be forced to reconsider many of the things that you "know" so assuredly.
It's so much EASIER than THINKING!
I keep thinking that if an ISP really wanted to cut costs, they could proactively monitor their network for problems:
If done correctly (and if clearly advertised by the ISP so that users would know that they didn't need to call to report any outages), it would eliminate the need for all customer service except for billing, and a decent online billing system could significantly reduce the need for that as well.
