Testing Muslims' Loyalty Is A Good But Not-Well-Thought-Out Idea

The Koran gives Muslims permission to lie and even deny Allah if in the end it furthers the cause of Islam.

You see the Koran states in Surah 3:28 the following: "Let not believers Take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers:  if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah: except by way of precaution (prevention), that ye may Guard yourselves from them (prevent them from harming you.)  But Allah cautions you (To remember) Himself; for the final goal is to Allah."

From this verse originates the concept of Takeyya.  Short of killing another human being, a muslim may  legitimately act contrary to their faith if under threat of force.  The following actions are acceptable:

1. Drink wine, abandon prayers, and skip fasting during Ramadan.
2. Renounce belief in Allah.
3. Kneel in homage to a deity other than Allah.
4. Utter insincere oaths.

Hmmm.  They could even be president of the United States and tell everyone they were Christian.  But I digress.

Mr. Cain, how could you determine the loyalty of Muslims who practice the concept of Takeyya?
