      @SamHarrisOrg Do you dispute that suicide attacks and targeting innocents are both contrary to Islamic doctrine?

      .@DougJanack It all turns on how one defines "suicide" and "innocents." Clearly, jihadists have finessed the issue.

      @lt_diablo @SamHarrisOrg All ideologies, including religions, evolve, and all have mixed records. Essentializing isn't meaningful.

      .@DougJanack Have you "essentialized" my view of Islam? Perhaps my belief that it's dangerous and idiotic has nothing to do with what I say.

          @DougJanack Not quite. The verse on "suicide" ("do not destroy yourselves") is open to interpretation. As is "noncombatant"....
