They're not funded by organizations affiliated with enemies of the state. Preachers in churches and synagogues don't regularly practice sedition either. This is a unique case, freedom of religion is being subverted by those who run places of worship.Originally Posted by PVC
Drinking isn't a big offense, it is not prohibited in the Qur'an. Wasn’t banned until the eleventh century. I have no interest in converting anyone and I'm pretty Islam doesn't require me to.You're a Muslim that drinks.
Having said that, this is all a matter of perspective. a True Christian does not harm to others, loves all mankind, serves God and gives all his possessions tot he poor. From what I've read a true Muslim spends all his time converting others to Islam, by persuasion or by threat of violence.
The things you described as true to Christianity apply to all religions. The Bible is a bit more Old Testament is what I’m saying. It's clear that most Christians don't take their religion seriously and veneration/worship is becoming less important for them. Faith in its traditional form in Christianity has been on the decline.
Of course I do, Syria not too long ago and Egypt. By left I don't mean do everything to make the religion less relevant.Anyway, this comment makes me think you don't believe in "Left Wing" Islam yourself.
That's only one incident, hardly enough to make the bold statement that westernized Muslims want their own separate sharia schools.Look up Operation Torjan Horse - there were two separate enquiries and both concluded that Muslim parents were trying to Islamise State Schools, and that the local Council was craven in confronting them about it.
I don't know what you consider "Left Wing" Islam but I have a suspicion that it's nothing like anything "Left Wing" in Europe, and that we have little or none of it here in any case.
I bet there are a ****load of interfaith marriages, gay Muslims, and born Muslims that relate more to EU stuff but they're just a "minority" so they don't matter, because Islamists are just louder so they must be "mainstream" as well.
