A "moderate Muslim" does not follow the precepts of Islam. What we call "radical Islam" is in fact those who are practicing the religion as written by the moon-god loving racist pedophile (may he burn in hell for eternity)

I, too, believe that there are moderate Muslims, perhaps more than we will know about because some clearly fear repercussions from more radical ones. I do think they are the ones who ignore the more violent aspects of Islam (no doubt called infidel by the radicals) and believe in God, not in the moon-god sense, but as we generally understand and believe God in our Judeo-Christian heritage in this country. It's good to hear them anounce their presence and support for GWB and America.

I don't think I was clear. I do NOT believe there are "moderate muslims." Those who claim to be so are either 5th columnists (the bulk of them) or not practicing any known type of Islam.

The only good muslim is one which has converted away from islam.

Read the article I posted.

Very true; it's reminiscent of how Italian immigrants used to be intimidated into silence about the Mafia. I do think they are the ones who ignore the more violent aspects of Islam
Just as most Christians and Jews ignore the more violent aspects of their faiths. The passages in the Bible about how to deal with the Philistines were a call to genocide, but by the time of the exile in Babylon the Jewish view of foreigners had changed dramatically.

I agree.
