That was good to read.

Still, I think that what Aslan did in that situation was the right thing. The newscasters tried to generalize and breed hate, and they didn't succeeed.

Islam needs a reform. In my society (Arab-Israelis) the problems mentioned in this article are not as present. But the Quran (and the Hadith, which is the main problem) do contain many problems, like inequality, but many more civilized Muslims ignore those parts, but keep quite about it...

I don't conside myself a Muslim because I am an atheist, in addition to everything that I don't agree with from the scriptures.
