For a believer God is the best to decide which is wrong or right, ask any believer about who has the most knowledge then the answer is God. I believe my interpretation is appropriate based on my study and the best methodology I can find, for me there's nothing ambiguous, everything is clear as long as you've done enough research and study.
Now what I was criticizing about the OP since the beginning of my post is the writer's bold claim that the so called extremists represent the religion in its best practice - Please read my first post.
That's a very bold claim that requires proof and must be based on a study which none shown in the article, what's his reason for saying that? how did he know that is the best practice of the religion and not otherwise? As far as I concern a claim like that given without reasons is an unfounded claim. How can you agree to this? you just do for no reasons? or you just believe this guy has "the special wisdom and insight" to make such claim?
