@rezaaslan@ZEEMANA so then IS are Muslims?? -
@apk222 Yes but@rezaaslan tries to moot this by saying membership in Islam is meaningless to begin with, because 'subjective'.@ZEEMANA -
@neiltwit@rezaaslan@ZEEMANA Islam is more an ideology, stuck in 7th century doctrine & gets interpreted a billion different ways. -
@apk222@neiltwit@rezaaslan Islam is an ideology which has nit been allowed to evolve by the politics that Islamic clerics engage in. -
@ZEEMANA@neiltwit@rezaaslan & pricks like Aslan who smother discussion abt Islam in west. He shld b supporting open forum not attacking it -
Am glad now there is more freedom to speak against injustices and bigoted beliefs. Apologism of any sort over.

@rezaaslan Just as all Sunni/Shia sects reject Ahemdis as Muslims, while Shias reject Alevites as Shias despite both of their claims? - 1 more reply
