I know a couple of Muslims who consider themselves "cultural Muslims", as in they drink and act like the rest of us and go to mosque maybe once or twice a year.
One thing that I find "disturbing" is how religious young Muslims still are when compared to young cultural Christians - Younger generations are becoming less and less religious, I can't seem to find any friend who even goes to church regularly, but that is not the case with Muslims - I wonder if it has to do with immigration, or with some of them having proper Islamic schools even in countries like England? I also wonder how we, as a society, are supposed to react to a religious demographic when we are becoming less and less religious. Let's not be overly nice, more and more people are starting to see God claims as the tremendous BS it is, and that's good, but I dunno how we will be dealing with a group of people who have serious potential to become the world's religious majority in a few decades. Dunno as well how it will impact social issues like gay marriage and women's rights.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
