#2 They don't need to modernize Islam. They need to go back to the true teachings of Islam.
They have to stop interpreting Islam by what they think is right, and realize that it is a religion of peace, and a way of life.

#3 I'm just so not in the mood for your bullshit this morning, "Gentle."
The Muslim men have you completely brainwashed and so crazy as to welcome the subjugation and chains of your secondary status as their property.
Islam MUST reform and quit waging jihad...OR ELSE.

Bullshit. Islam is founded on the concept of military expansionism.

#5 Gentle, here's a brief explanation of Wahhabism from my ARAMCO handbook. You should take note that every phrase in this book regarding customs and religion was approved by the House of Saud.
This new religious revival was carried forward with the same conviction which had governed the Prophet Muhmmad and his followers: all coverts were to be welcomed, but those who offered opposition were to be subdued.
Websters on line dictionary defines
Subdue: to conquer and bring into subjection : VANQUISH
And defines Vanquish, a synonym of conquer, thusly:
1 : to overcome in battle : subdue completely
2 : to defeat in a conflict or contest
3 : to gain mastery over
A basic tenet of the Wahhabis is their claim of going back to the true teachings of Muhammed. Teaching and requiring the vanquishing of those who oppose conversion doesn't seem to be the Religion of Peace that you would have us believe, Gentle.

#7 Are the Saudis fanatics?

Yes.

Does my answer require further simplification for anyone who remains unclear?
