Are you tired of sound-bite discussions on the subject of "radical Islam"? Would you like to hear a deeper discussion?
THIS VIDEO is a high-quality, Lincoln-Douglas-style debate between two articulate speakers who have deep knowledge of the subject. The title is "Understanding Islam: Threat or Faith".
Dr. Zuhdi Jasser is a devout Muslim well-known nationally from his many appearances on television, especially Fox News. Dr. Carl Goldberg is an historian who has devoted a major portion of his life to studying the Quran, the Haddith, and writings of Islamic scholars and Imams, both old and new.
This debate is moderated by Shane Krauser of www.FreedomFires.com

What would you reform? The Book or the behavior of it's stringent followers, who want to go for the purest version of it to please the God? The venom of hatred and violence is well spread in the entire body that no antidote can do the magic anymore. If this is called a religion of peace, then who needs the war?
