“This is a Muslim conference put together by the top sheiks, ministers of religion, the grand muftis of the top Muslim majority nations, and they came up with a declaration, literally using the language of religious freedom to declare that violence cannot be done in the name of Islam.” CT

Those inclined to make all inclusive generalizations about Islam and violence should take note. These other Muslims do exist.

(Raises alot of questions, though… are both Sunnis and Shiites involved? What nations? Are these leaders in a position to make any difference? … etc.)

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.

NewWelcome,

but with the questions Aaron notes. Very interesting that they’ve got a document theoretically going back to Mohammed with some theoretical authority, but I’m not quite sure how it will balance against the “war” suras of the Qu-ran.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
