How exactly do they follow all the rules if they're ignoring all the horrible ones?
They are indeed good and decent people and this is precisely because they do NOT establish their values from their Muslim faith. Moderate Islam, like moderate Christianity, is civilized because it is partially secularized. Like the video that I just posted said (you seem to have ignored that one too): If Christians, for example, truly followed the Bible they'd trust Christian exorcism of demons over modern secular medicine.
You seem to have an overly romanticized view of true Islam but I am not surprised because moderate Christians like yourself have to cherry pick the Bible almost as much as moderate Muslims have to cherry pick the Koran. And thank goodness that you do cherry pick it.
