Dear Noah Wilk , you wrote :

;) I fully agree with you !!!

Still, paraphrasing Dr. Pipes' pet idea of moderate and extremist Moslems I wonder if we couldn't correspondingly distinguish between "moderately stupid Moslems" and "extremely stupid Moslems" ? What we'd get as a result would be this : a/ "A moderately stupid Moslem is a beginner extreme Moslem fool" and b/ "An extremely stupid Moslem is a formerly moderately stupid Moslem ".
