The Old Testament teaches " an eye for an eye " or to put it in other words treat them back as they treat you.
Isolate the worst ones and kill them off as in Raqqa.imho
The UK has finally shown just a little grit by expelling 150 known jihadis. They should care ! With their intimate knowledge of the UK they are twice as dangerous and hailed as heroes back home.
Our politicians have their hands tied by the WET church and soppy philosophies.

New Age Islam!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Age_Islam

New Age Islam (Hindi: न्यू ऐज इस्लाम, Urdu: نیو ایج اسلام, Arabic: نيو أج اسلام) is a liberal Muslim institution based in New Delhi, Delhi, India.[1] It encourages progressive thinking among Muslims worldwide by exposing them to news, analyses and opinions on a variety of social, political, theological and spiritual issues related to Islam. It also provides a platform for debate on contemporary concerns facing Muslims, such as religious extremism, terrorism and relations with other religious groups.[2][3][4]

The institution runs a website, NewAgeIslam.com, which brings together reports, features and commentaries from a range of academic and journalistic sources, as well as original scholarship on Muslim affairs.[5] It also publishes a daily email newsletter and prints an annual anthology of selected works from its website. Although the website is primarily in English, it makes selected articles available in Hindi, Urdu, Arabic and French as well.[6][7][8][9] The institution also runs an online television channel, New Age Islam TV.[10]

The Times of India praised its "liberal, rational advocacy of Islamic principles."[2] Another Indian newspaper, The Hindu, said New Age Islam "provides its audience a wide range of original theological and political writing that does not figure in the mainstream media."[4] First Post said it "prompt(s) Muslims to ‘rethink’ Islam and challenge the petro-dollar funded Wahabi ideology."[11] Pakistan's Viewpoint magazine called it "a success (that) deserves respect and attention."[3]

The Quran, Islamic Theology, Philosophy And The Sciences - What Is God And How Do We Go About Trying To Know God Better? (Part 1)

Naseer Ahmed, New Age Islam

Science informs us that the world and time have a beginning. Science also informs us that what originates in time and at a point in time has a cause. Nothing happens by itself. There must be a cause therefore for the creation of the universe and this cause we call the Creator. Unless there is a cause for the creation of the Creator of this Universe, the Creator is the First Principle we call God. Every being and thing has a cause and every cause has its cause and if we go back in this series which cannot be infinite, we end at a cause that has no cause which is God who is uncaused and the cause of creation. If the world itself was uncaused, then the world itself would have been the first principle, and the atheists would have been right in rejecting the notion of a God who is among other things the Creator….

The Quran Is the Perfect, Infallible Word of God, Even If All the Muslims Misunderstand It

Naseer Ahmed, New Age Islam

Islamic theology is mostly un-Islamic and needs extensive reform of a fundamental nature. It is full of utter nonsense. It is not very much different from what the extremists believe which is why it can never effectively counter them. To give you an example, in Islamic theology, kafir has come to mean a non-Muslim which is not the meaning of the word in the Quran at all. Now if you read the Quran giving the word such a meaning, and when this word in its various grammatical forms appears in the Quran more than 300 times, you can imagine the havoc it plays with the meaning of the Quran! What is the solution? The solution is to show exactly what meaning the Quran gives to this word with the help of the Quranic verses. Is that possible? It is possible to very precisely define what it means and what it does not mean after which the Quran reads very differently and makes very good sense. With the wrong meaning it sounds absolutely grotesque. By changing the meaning of one word, the word of God can be transformed into the word of Satan.

Another contradiction. The new age philosophy is actually the end of all the dogmatic illusions and domination ploys that have so far plagued planet eath. Can't see how any religion whasoever can fit in.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Age

The New Age is a term applied to a range of spiritual or religious beliefs and practices that developed in Western nations during the 1970s. Precise scholarly definitions of the New Age differ in their emphasis, largely as a result of its highly eclectic structure. Although analytically often considered to be religious, those involved in it typically prefer the designation of "spiritual" and rarely use the term "New Age" themselves. Many scholars of the subject refer to it as the New Age movement, although others contest this term and suggest that it is better seen as a milieu or zeitgeist.

As a form of Western esotericism, the New Age drew heavily upon a number of older esoteric traditions, in particular those that emerged from the occultist current that developed in the eighteenth century. Such prominent occult influences include the work of Emanuel Swedenborg and Franz Mesmer, as well as the ideas of Spiritualism, New Thought, and Theosophy. A number of mid-twentieth century influences, such as the UFO religions of the 1950s, the Counterculture of the 1960s, and the Human Potential Movement, also exerted a strong influence on the early development of the New Age. Although the exact origins of the phenomenon remain contested, it is agreed that it developed in the 1970s, at which time it was centred largely in the United Kingdom. It expanded and grew largely in the 1980s and 1990s, in particular within the United States. By the start of the 21st century, the term "New Age" was increasingly rejected within this milieu, with some scholars arguing that the New Age phenomenon had ended.

I have no problem with peaceful religion. It's the violence associated with it that distresses me.
