This was a great interview and indeed a lot of good Q&amp;A regarding Islam and the Islamic culture, but unfortunately it was a bit lopsided and there was a clear narrative to it.<br>Omar explained a lot of interesting and true things about the peaceful and ideal side of Islam, but Lex purposely refrained from asking about the more challenging sides of it, like:<br>Introspective about the violent or zealous parts of Islam, the responsibility of the peaceful Muslims in regard to the radical parts of the Muslim world, ISIS, women rights in the Muslim society, the Koran's (and the different sub-parts of it) approach to Jews and non-Muslims, and the approach to conversion and the forced aspects of it and much more. All these could be covered in a respectful way, but Lex evaded it.<br>Lex - you are one of my ever favorites podcasters and interviewers, but such conversations need to be truly candid.
