I was taught about Islam in social studies, and I don't remember anybody trying to force me to obey Islamic law at any point.

I don't know whether there is a slippery slope, but I do know this isn't an accurate description of it.

Person: here is generally how this thing has gone throughout history

You: my individual experience doesn't match this, therefore you are completely wrong

Come on, dude, read a book.
