>>Perhaps the problem is that some among us
expect Islam to be like Christianity, a religion
that sets up impossible moral requirements that
nobody in their right mind would ever follow.
Sort of like the US military "higher standards" of
conduct and decency, eh?
Part of the point of impossible standards is to
provide incentive to try to meet them, reach for
higher standards, without the expectation of ever
being able to meet them fully.
Think that's the point of Christian standards too.
