Muslims

[Wyrd of Gawd]

Like I said earlier, when I say "good Muslim" I just mean a good person to our 21st century standards. This does not need to be explained or analyzed. Someone who doesn't go around killing people and forcing others to believe what they believe... or someone who supports either of those acts.

They may be a distinct minority and, when they try to speak out they can end up dead very quickly ( See Bangladesh bloggers.)

Why don't you think people can change though? That was centuries ago.

Do you think for a moment I would trust scumbags like Huckabee and Carson?  Pat Robertson?  Billy Graham and his pissant son?  No.  Given a chance to exert political power these fuckers would be the American Taliban.

When you look for "people" to change it isn't the shepherd who will do the changing.  They always want to be in charge.  No.  The sheep need to change.  Actually the sheep need to say "go fuck yourself, Huckabee, we don't care about your fucking fairy tales.

The handful of muslims who have reached that point are either a) in the west or b) in hiding in their own countries.

Good points but the conflict arises when there are opposing viewpoints.  If all 7 billion+ people were of the same religious sect there would be very little discord or crime.  It would be like living in a world full of pod people but things overall would be very peaceful.  When someone breaks the rules he would be dealt with in an expeditious manner and harmony would be quickly restored.  A person would only have problems if he didn't obey and wanted to do his own things.
