The "official" or unofficial ,as it is described here, view of Islam is not really the point of the story. Are white Christian men arrogant, intolerant and closed minded? Of course some are just as some Muslim men are arrogant, intolerant and closeminded. It is arrogant, intolerant and closeminded people that have the world in the mess it is in. No religion or ethnic group has the market cornered on that one. The post is about the opposite here. It is about tolerance and openmindedness. That is the message people should be getting from this. It is not about if the tables were turned it would be different. Any Brother should look past their religion or political views when in their lodge. If some choose not to do that they may be missing the point of Masonry.
