Muslims may be of two kinds

Submitted by Prashant (India), Sep 29, 2022 at 11:10

Dear Dr Pipes, Reader Ivan from Indonesia implied that not all Muslims are of the same kind. I agree, Muslims have to me of many kinds; 2 Billion people cannot be all identical. For example, some Muslims will be loving football and the others may not like football that much. But different kinds of Muslims will matter to non-Muslims if and only if they differ in substantive ways. I am sure the following two types of Muslims must be existing in some corners of the earth:

Type 1: Muslims who appreciate quran.com/9/5, quran.com/5/33, and quran.com/8/12 and want to keep these verses in the book as is.

Type 2: Muslims who find the above verses objectionable and want to remove them from the book.

I will like to befriend the Type 2 Muslims.
