And my counter-argument is based on friendships I've had going back years, and like yours - coupled with logic.
You're using the experience of your friends, not mine. It's a little presumptive to assume that your experience is applicable to every Muslim in the UK.
Wen you say, "Do you really think if the demographic changed your mates would opt to continue to drink with you? They wouldn't be doing it for long. Apart from the fact that there would be nowhere to drink, self-preservation would take precedence."
I think that you are talking about a situation where the UK became an Islamic state. Is that where you were going with that?
If so, I have to say that sounds a lot like absurdum ad reductio.
You may as well argue that if all horses were replaced with unicorns, there would be many more injuries at Ascot next year.
Absolutely - but it's not a strong argument because of the unlikelihood of it happening.
Winged horses - yes, because they exist...but unicorns do not.
