let me explain myself

I am not for the total distruction of Islam and the substitution of our Heritage by another. However I think that Islam should be modernized and democracy instituted in the Arab World. It's the key to peace all over the World.

Lets say that the violent interpretation should be shunned, that the moderates should have a voice. As it stands they don't because they fear being killed.

This is where you are wrong man
If you read the old Jewish teaching they are more stricter than Muslims, to remind you at one point the Jews used to cut their clothes if a drop of urine touch it call it crazy but it was that bad( a clear devotion to ONEGOD) but Allah made it easier for them by allowing what was forbidden to them before by Israel(pbuh) who forbade things for himself alone.
Islam is one there is one law and must not be changed to satisfy the some. many other religions have tried that and we know have 70s type of Christianity and many sections of Judaism and Islam is heading that way aswell and according to the haddith we will get to a point when the word there is no GOd but ONE will be used without meaning it
The problem is not Islam it is people who misunderstand it i will give you an example
If you take 4 type of people and give them the Quran they would come up with 4 different religions and only one is right
1-A person who wants to be very strict
2-A person who want to be very eassy going he may even allow Homosexuality etc...
3-A person who want to be Moderate accept what is good and stay away from what is evil
4-A person who has a mental sickness
the results would be
1- you would get an extreemist
2-you would get a satanic followers even if he does good deeds
3- The perfect Muslims a fondamentalist who remain the same throughout time
4- A terrorist or fanatic and evil doer
If you say that Islam need to change so that we can like it I say Islam is not a sport it is a way of life
the forbidden acts are well known and the Halal acts are well known.
