Dear Scared Decent Muslim,

Your post testifies to your unfortunate psychotic condition. But that's OK, you shouldn't be worried too much…. This condition is very common among most Muslims, in particular those living in the West, and who are trying to make some sense out of their faith.

You say: "people are afraid of themselves more than anything else" which again is a very natural statement from a faithful Muslim. A decent Muslim person like you, who hates killings and crime, has every reason to be very afraid of himself – he can never know when his Islamic Jihadic Demon, hidden deeply in his ... brain, will take over him one day ... This is very scary indeed, and you have all my sympathy.

By the way, is it that scary that you are afraid to disclose even your real name?
