@TheJewgro @MitchBenn And they are officially considered apostates and ruthlessly murdered for their beliefs.

@SamHarrisOrg To which "central doctrine" are you referring? Your premise seems to be that radicalism is the "true" Islam -
@aminnathari@SamHarrisOrg Not really, the "true" Islam is the submission to all the teachings of the Quran. All of them... -
@dePlantagenet@SamHarrisOrg True, but I am not "submitting" to a dumb interpretation! Some past Muslim scholars said earth was flat too. -
@aminnathari@SamHarrisOrg I go with Harris: show me ANY interpretation of the Book that says women are equal to men.

@SamHarrisOrg@aminnathari I don't know Sam, there is a certain degree of cognitive dissonance and picking and choosing in all religions. -
@manchicken@SamHarrisOrg Michael, even the Al-Qaeda types "pick and choose" -
@aminnathari@samharrisorg Hey man, I'm not arguing. ALL religious traditions pick and choose. All do so in ignorance. They're all wrong. -
@manchicken@SamHarrisOrg Then why do "moderate" Muslims constantly get accused of "cherrypicking"? -
@aminnathari@samharrisorg Because those who pick and choose differently want grounds on which to claim pious superiority. -
@manchicken@SamHarrisOrg Well, I don't care for any "pious superiority". Each person's religion in the US is personal. Full stop -
@aminnathari@samharrisorg If they would keep it to themselves then I would be happy to agree. Unfortunately they don't. Not at all. -
@manchicken@SamHarrisOrg No they do not. But that is true even WITHIN the religion. (e.g. Sunnis try to convert Shia and vice versa)

@SamHarrisOrg@aminnathari - And wait till muslim population crosses 10% in USofA. Moderate muslims will be first to be silenced. -
@Shivgad@SamHarrisOrg No proof of that. We have no "no go" zones and no famous fire breathing radicals as in other places. We reject them

@SamHarrisOrg@aminnathari It's funny how reality seems to stimulate a broaden and soften interpretation of the word of god. -
@arlsanone@SamHarrisOrg Yes, reality is funny like that

@SamHarrisOrg@aminnathari You can't follow 10% of the book and claim it's the "Modern Islam"....It's the "Barely Islam".#facts -
@BigRonPartlow@SamHarrisOrg There are diff interps of even radical version of Islam. you can't pick the most radical and pin it on me -
@aminnathari@SamHarrisOrg I'm all for interpretations that cherrypick. Keep it up until the book is no longer even needed.#progress -
@BigRonPartlow@SamHarrisOrg Islam in America is evolving before your eyes. Stop saying radicals are "true" Muslims while moderates are not -
@aminnathari@SamHarrisOrg Radicals is a dishonest term. The are literal fundamentalists.
