That's just not true, Mr. O'Matic. There are branches of Islam that haven't gone through their enlightenment phase, and those that have. Sufism, being a good example of one that has. And of course Islam as practiced by most Muslims in the US is no less enlightened than Christianity. The more fundamentalist of the Islamic sects are arguably more strict and backward than the more fundamentalist of the Christian sects, but you can't really boil all of Islam down into such a broad, sweeping generalization. It's just not that monolithic.

The term "the Islamic community" isn't really a valid term. There are many, many different Islamic communities which all have different degrees of enlightenment/fundamentalism.
