Manji's Relativistic Mush

Saith Irshad:
There are some conservatives, not all, but some, who want to put all Muslims in a box. They want to make the claim that in order for Western civilization to be safe, we must treat it as if it’s singularly superior. I’m not for a second denigrating Western society or culture – I know how lucky I am to have the freedoms I have. I think some believe other cultures are somehow inferior, that they can not have the things we have. If that’s what some on the right believe, I think they’re wrong.
Speaking for "some conservatives," it's not that we think some cultures are inherently "inferior." It's that we know that, for those who value liberty, one must—must—live under man's law, kafir law, a law that allows for the separation of mosque and state.

In other words, and in brief: West is best.

If saying such things "denigrates" Islam's sharia law, so be it.
