People need faith in God to follow and live by, but it must be a moderate faith. The definitive faith must have moderate theology claims underpinning it. All this indicates is that any or most religious truths are rarely absolutely true or absolutely false. Rarely are they as stated and presented the last word for all people, in all generations, in all worlds. Religious truths are probably true and probably false, more or less. This way, they are open to evolution and improvement, building new, superior, modified truth, upon the old foundational truths.
Muslims, are you listening? What you have been taught for 1500 years is not the last word on anything religious. God wants you to open your faith to modernization, to criticism, to revision. Religious absolutists are fanatics, and fanatics follow Satan, not God. Start growing, start modernizing. Start modernizing, and add a tinge of Mavellonialism to your religious outlook. You will not regret it. You cannot prevent that input from impacting your faith. If you kill me to prevent it, God will make sure your grandchildren accept it three times as hard to compensate for your vicious recalcitrance in rejecting a newer, better way to live and believe.
