The gist of the research is that a great many of us misunderstand the extent of difference between Muslims and "others"-- seems like Isquith has a particular issue with New Atheism, but Fish pays at least as much attention to Christian belief of vast differences. My own past biases haven't been either pro-Christian or pro-atheist, but I used to think Hinduism was more tolerant and peaceful than Islam. A long trip to India, encountering Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists as well as Muslims and Hindus, led to a questioning of that bias. So has a couple of decades of subsequent history. I'm curious to find out what Fish might have learned about Hindu levels of belief in church/state separation, as contrasted to Muslims. In India I'd assume the Muslims are more emphatic about it since a Hindu theocratic government would be against their interest.
