The Muslim Council of Britain is officially the moderate face of Islam, and the MCB's secretary general, Iqbal Sacranie, has recently been knighted. Anytime there's an Islamist terrorist atrocity affecting Britain they pop up to give the moderate response of mainstream Muslims, the majority of Muslims. Maybe their views are out of touch with younger Muslims, who tend to be either more liberal or much more fundamentalist, but they're supposed to reflect the majority's views.
The Church of England is split on homosexual bishops and same-sex marriages here but it's overall more tolerant of gays and it allows clergy to be gay.
My point, though, is that Christianity gets all the criticism from liberals and Islam is left in peace, even though Islam is much less tolerant. Islam is the main danger to liberal societies and it's about time liberals admitted that.
