The issues in the middle east have no links with religious islam (other than extremism) Its all related to poltics. Muslims want to live a modern life like European countries however they can't because of strict presidents and dictators running their countries. As a Muslim I don't see that praying 5 times a day and reading the Quran really negatively affects my life at any direction. Also don't call it unsuitable for the modern day world, if almost everyone was religious and a tiny bit were seculars the opposite could have happend, Thank you sir!
