That's the issue. People try to define 'good muslims' by western standards of what a good person is.
The bottom line is, that for the vast majority of muslims, their idea of what constitutes a good person and our (I mean westerners in general when I say this), are completely different. And in my mind not compatible.
Islam is one of the main reasons why I think the multi-cultural experiment in Europe has been a complete and utter disaster. "Good Muslims" and "Good People" are mutually exclusive terms IMO.
Yeah, when I say "good Muslims", I just meant good people by our standards. But it seems pretty basic- don't kill people (or support it), and don't force others to practice your religion.
...And I just read some Sharia Law rules. Disgusting. Do all Muslims really believe Sharia Law is good??
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
