As many news outlets may still be reluctant to openly criticize Islam, the Internet opens the possibility of a freer discourse on such subjects than more traditional media do. The intention behind this Toolbox is to encourage more people to use the Internet as a way of getting critical discussion of Islamic issues out to the general public. Any person who wants to is very welcome to copy this list or any parts of it that they may find interesting to their own websites. The Toolbox is a work in progress, and everybody is encouraged to add more "tools" of their own.

Everyone is welcome to copy this list or any parts of it that they may find interesting to their own [[websites]]. The Toolbox is a work in progress, and everybody is encouraged to add more useful [[links]] of their own.
==Practical Tips For Critics of Islam==
 
The easiest thing you can do is mail the links to some of the websites by ex-Muslims that are listed further down to friends, family, colleagues and everybody you know. You may include other Islam-critical websites. This is free, and takes very little of your time, while increasing the knowledge of Islam in the general public.
 
If you want to spend a little bit of money, try buying some books about Islam. Give them as gifts to friends and family. Write an invitation inside to some of the websites mentioned below. Order them from your local bookstore, which will make them aware of these titles and maybe order more of them. Write online reviews of good Islam-critical books on websites such as http://www.amazon.com/ .
 
Help and support the work of ex-Muslims and their organizations in any way you can. Giving money to websites by ex-Muslims should not be viewed as "charity".

==Miscellaneous: Links Not Related to Islam==
==Finding News About Islam ==


Basic introduction, with some hints and tips about Internet privacy and security:
The following is not an exhaustive list of places to find news about Islam, just a suggestion of where to start. The list includes both mainstream news outlets and smaller websites, both anti-Islamic ones and hardcore Islamist ones. It goes without saying that the fact that a website is listed here does not mean we endorse all views expressed there.
