Re: Mohammed the man vs Mohammed the prophet.
PCG - The 'moderate' believes they are the true followers of Islam, they use their brain to distinguish between good & bad and live with the values of the 21st century.
Whereas the 'Jihadi/extremist' believes they are the true followers of Islam. They refuse to use their brains, parrot things by rote from the quran or life of Mohammed and strictly follow the views & values of the 6th century
Who determines what is to be followed from Mohammed's life and what is not to be followed. There lies the biggest problem.
That is why I think a distinction is warranted. Moderates are the true Muslims. The Jihadi/extremists are the mislead Mohammadens.
