    Most Reformists Rejected From Running For Parliament In Iran

    That's right. A truly long way. But good thing is, we have already started and are continuing our walk to our very own destiny. Many other nations are yet to even start their journey.

    Meaning of Freedom...

    Dear Bozorgmehr, It is all ok and well. I greatly appreciate your apology and it only goes to show your caliber. I think, quoting an article without saying something new oneself, does not come under the category of thinking, or in fact free will. But it is good that you accept that the...

    It's ok. We have a long way to go. A very long way.

    Meaning of Freedom...

    Amazing. So let's not think for ourselves and just bring a theoretical monograph written from perspective of Western philosophy analyzing a part of our culture and "prove" that "we have always been free". I don't know, when will we learn, if ever. Again you did not answer my question, about...

    Meaning of Freedom...

    Wow, angry! Those are good things you said. My questions were not to antagonize you, but to bring thoughtfulness to this. As I have seen time and again, our people still have not understood, that the freedom they are talking about has its roots in Western construct of freedom. Zoroastrianism...

    Meaning of Freedom...

    Say, you were "free". Completely free. What you are going to do with that freedom? I am interested to know something tangible which you can't do right now and you want to do when free? And do you know the history of freedom in Western context?

    When would Bombs stop exploding?

    It is the work of centuries, as said above. The enormous work needed to create a theological basis for such tasks should not be underestimated. Right now, the Ulema even have failed to put forward a coherent and technically sound theological framework in order to just mute Takfir portion of...

    When would Bombs stop exploding?

    Reza Aslan is a good scholar. He has done alot to preserve what little honor and good image Muslims are left with, in the world. Unfortunately it is the beliefs themselves that are the issue here, not the extent of action on them. The belief that causes and rather even bullies a fifteen year old...

    When would Bombs stop exploding?

    Only if it was the case with Islam. (Un)fortunately Islam comes loaded with claims to every aspect of life including the political life. You can not extricate Islam from political life without reinterpreting Islam. For the past 1400 years, Muslims have been sincere and literal believers that...

    When would Bombs stop exploding?

    What you say is noble in context of the need for a new way of thinking in Muslim lands. After all such religious flaws have been used and will be used, by political forces needing advantage to promote themselves. But I am not sure if bombs will stop even if there was no Islam at all. Pol Pot...

    When would Bombs stop exploding?

    Yet another logical topic by a free-thinker. Such an enlightened rational debate as commanded by the OP, may not be possible in the middle of a war. It is only when the war is over that the Generals can start behaving with civility. During the war, it is all about brute force, deception, daggers...
