Looks like there's no way to resolve this issue (Islam).

In Response To: WHAT QUALIFIES A QUANTUM PHYSICIST TO JUDGE ISLAM??? (oliverhaddo)
Hi, Folks -
Let's take it as a given that a lot of bloody things happened in Europe and the Middle East in times gone by.
Let's take it as a given that a variety of bloody things that at least appear to have been about "jihad" have taken place in modern times, too.
Let's take it as a given that there are things to be found in writings that pertain to Islam that appear to condone or even encourage the bloody and enslaving actions we're talking about.
But let's also take it as a given that "the victors write the history"; and whether the available history paints a group of folks as very good or very bad almost does not matter - because we may not accurately perceive _why_ "someone" would want to depict things in the way they've been depicted, whether for or against. Does someone want us fearful? Or does someone want us lulled into a false sense of security? We don't know.
Let us acknowledge that the past is not the predictor of the present or the future, despite the wise-sounding idea that if we don't know the past we'll be destined to repeat it. Kinda depends on who gave us our information _about_ the past, after all. :)
Let us take note of the fact that Old Testament times appear to have been about physical things, including conquests and punishments and sacred sacrifices.
Let's realize that some things in the Old Testament (Leviticus particularly) were about ways of doing things that may have been adhered to at the time (e.g., stoning) but that no longer appear appropriate today to followers of that faith.
Let us, then, allow room in our thinking for the possibility that there really are "moderate Muslims", ones who find certain elements of their faith/ideology to be relics of an earlier time and that need not be put into real-world practice today.
Where does that leave us? Only with reason to accept that we don't really know what the heck is going on. :) As usual, we're awash in a flood of information, unable to be sure how much of it is immediately relevant and how much might be deliberate disinformation. The best we can do is "love one another" as possible for those who are within our reach.
