but I prefer to instigate discussions here rather than places where argument is more typical than discussion. Thanks for the tip re OPs and LBN titles. Isquith's article title is click-bait, but I think a disservice to the researcher who doesn't seem to be focused much on New Atheists. The research isn't all that new, though-- the book Are Muslims Distinctive? was given a Choice award as an outstanding academic title in 2012 according to the author's webpage at Berkeley.

This seems to happen a lot with minority or foreign groups when they're looked at closely. okasha Jan 2015 #5
