Muslim.. ish?


I have read the excerpt The Modern Martyr, A radically peaceful vision of Islam, and some of the literature seem very grey in terms of the principals of the Koran. Naim, a student who defined himself as muslim said that he himself found it hard to accept Sharia- Islamic law. the article suggest also that some of Sudanese Constitution (built on islamic principles) could use some refinement.

I think that we see these patterns occurring a lot generally in society today. America itself, a nation built on the principles of christianity, has been refining its laws and amendments a lot lately. so what does this say about religion? Is it something to be said about the principles of religions? Is there a rolling cap on how the individual should practice in their society or has society created it so the individual has to re evaluate their practice.

last time ..Comment away!

  1. One qualification here: it is far from clear that the U.S. was founded on Christian principles in any straightforward way.
