But hey, this sounds like good news!
Well I just said on twitter related to this, it does not help that our right wing shits it's pants over others existing.
It is a myth that there are no progressives in the Islamic world. It is simply the powers in control that make it virtually impossible for change to happen. And you compound that with our right wing Christian dominion bullshit, of course that freaks them out.
No, that doesn't justify Islam being stuck in it's own dark ages. But it doesn't give confidence to those stuck under those theocracies, who want to get with the modern world.
Any Muslim who may read this has to know that there are plenty in the west who are not warmongers whom simply understand that a global war will hurt all 7 billion of us. We'd simply like it if you stop threatening the west with your god. TRUST US, we also don't like our right wing Christians threatening us with their God.
I am under no illusions that either Islam or Christianity, or even Jewish religions will be forced out of existence. But it sure would be nice if all of you would stop using our entire planet as your pissing contest.
