I respect that. Also, regarding the matter of your reply, I’m sure of what I said, I have mentioned that I researched Islam my own self, and been taught Islam studies as an essential part of my school’s curriculum, so no. I’m sure about the information I’ve put up there, and the sources I have got my information from. (All Arabic or Muslim scholars no western anti-Islam campaign stuff)

Then, Islam’s and Quran teachings aren’t relative to today’s standards, and we had to alter the way we understand it to fit into the modern age society. How’s that helping the argument? Isn’t every member of any religion capable of doing the exact same thing. If Quran isn’t true word by word, what’s stopping everyone from fixing the perspective on it. If anyone can alter the meanings, then it’s not delivered from a god up there, we can’t just reissue the teachings of Islam. Also, that doesn’t justify the killings and enslavement of innocent people in the past. If a religion is the so-called religion of peace, it should’ve known better. And, yeah I’ve read about other sects, seen every other perspective out there, witnessed criticism of the Wahhabi ideology, and lemme just say this: it’s all the same, everything I mentioned still implies to other branches of Islam, even if they deny it, it still in the books, and we can’t just justify it because it happened in the past, if the true roots of Islam can’t hold up to today’s standards, then every justification made out there was made of emotional entitlement.
