....but that they are separate and need to keep themselves separate? is it that if you live in a culture where the law the media the politics; everything basically is defferential towards or dictated to by religion, that people are squeezed into a sort of totalitarian certainty of belief, and never learn to see, let alone repect the validity of others faiths and cultures? does the brainwashing that religion is "the whole of life", and not "just a part of life", mean these peoples only identity is religion, and that they are terrified of losing it because their entire identity will then disintegrate?
this is the aspect of islam that worries me most: that religion interferes and seeks to assert its will in every area of life. people then dont really learn to question or to challenge but rather SUBMIT to a text 1500 years out of date.
i would not be surprised if this lead to blind faith, and an unthinking assumption of religious superiority and an inability to integrate with others.

you should be prepared to have pissed off a lot of people.
people have the right to choose what they want to do, or to devote their life to. it is no different in other choices. scholors devote their life to learning and explaining. Athletes spend every waking hour of the day making themselves better.
the only people who complain are those that are too blind to see what others and themselves spend their life doing.
you talk about blind faith but you act blind in this question. the question that you should be asking yourself is what ideals do you devote yourself or at least try to.
rethink your question and see if you can find an answer for yourself.

MUslims just make religion so important which is how it should be! religion should be a part of your evcery day life and it doesnt just stop here on earth it continues when u die too... about submitting to a text that is 1500 years out of date..whats ur point? each religion has a text and its obviously gonna be out of date.....
religion is ur whole life, u build ur life based upon u do things for ur god, u live a lifestyle that is pure and holy and then he shall reward you in the after life...i agree with poki poki.....
