Part of the problem
Meic Pearse is a traditionalist and a Christian. He defines the "clash of civilizations" in terms that at their core relate to his belief in the moral and spiritual infallibility of the Bible. Thus on pages 77-79 he defines human rights in terms of Biblical scripture, concluding that the sort of human right "that is claimed simply by virtue of one's existence" to be "not derived" from "Scripture" and therefore not something he is in agreement with.
We can see that Pearse is in agreement with the Muslim belief that laws come from God and not from human beings themselves. So it is not surprising to read this: "Normal people (that is, the rest of the world)...cannot exist without real meaning, without religion anchored in something deeper than existentialism and bland niceness, without a culture rooted deep in the soil of the place where they live." (p. 29)
