No joke, Katie. This topic has been covered numerous times in AB, but always with reference to the Daily Mail. I was really interested when I was sent this as it provided a different viewpoint, which many people here might not have encountered - hence I thought I would share it.

For what it's worth, I was sent this link by a friend who's an Anglican priest in Sheffield, who is heavily involved in interfaith work with a local imam.

Thanks to everyone who has commented - what a diverse lot ABers are! And long may it be so. Wouldn't it be dull if we all thought the same?
