How do we respond to those who categorically disagree with our ideas? And more, what if a group of people dare to oppose the status quo of society and its trends. What do we do when society seems bent on policies that undermine all that we know to be true and good, and good for the country? What if we don’t respond and don’t speak the truth?

Key textual concepts upheld by the Taliban, and the like, are described as ‘their form’ of Islam, as if it is a new, or invented, set of beliefs. Ancient traditional beliefs are set aside to a bygone world, as if that which was written in the past, is no longer relevant for today. Except that which was written in the past, is currently having a very real and negative impact the world over; The Taliban, Al-shabab, Al Qaeda, Boko Haram, ISIS and more, are constant reminders of the content of Islamic ‘holy writ’. The Moderate Muslim will need to reject much that ‘writ’ to make up a religion, which is deemed acceptable to Western eyes.
