Additionally, I don't think I claimed anywhere that liberalism was western. I stated that western society has embraced secularism more widely and implied that the acceptance of separation of church and state which was built into Christianity's holy book played a significant factor.

You were however interested in digging into the teachings of Islam to see if there was something that made that religion particularly problematic. You can not in good faith do that and ignore the comparisons that are beneficial to Islam.
