I have visited all sorts of Muslim web sites. I know Muslims -- have for years. Work with Muslims -- have for years. Individuals of the Muslim faith fall all over the continuum of fervor, zealotry and extremism. Most are just like me -- trying to be a good human being and trying to come to terms with my moral failings.
None of this makes a difference however. The Internet is a place of perception and not reality. There is nothing on the Internet that can refute Vikram Singh's statements. Everything he mentions still happens today, this hour, this minute. The stoning of women, slavery, the Sharia. It is all in place and is used to terrorize non Muslims either quietly into compliance, or openly by aggression, or in anticipation of further wanton terrorism in the name of God.
Nothing has changed for much of humanity since Nanaak in the material world. Just that only now we travel by SUV, communicate by cell phones and smart mobile devices, and propagate our thinking in the digital dimension.
The most constructive thing that could happen would be for Muslim spokesmen to simply admit that all of this is true, rather than make excuses or dress things up as philosophical inquiry. And BTW, Rhetoric is not difficult to unmask.
Thoughtful people look around and notice that rituals, teaching, philosophy..................They understand that deliverance comes a different way, just like Nanaak. How wise Nanaak!!!
Blessings of God upon you my friend, upon this earth and afterwards.
