Mr Ali Sina on reforming Islam; For this reason, Sina says that extremism in all religions can be eradicated if certain people are quieted, or if the followers are encouraged to embrace the universalist elements of their faith – but without addressing the extremism inherent in the religions texts. People ask whether Islam can undergo a reformation like the one that Christianity underwent. Thats a poor parallel, he says. In Christianity, it wasnt the religion that needed to be reformed, but the church; what Jesus preached was good. On the other hand, Sina continues, In Islam, its the religion that is not good. Arguing that Islam cannot be reformed, Sina says, This is the way to fight evil. I do not want to kill the enemy. I want to win them as friends and allies. That is the real victory. In this way, we win because we eliminate our enemy, and our enemy wins by eliminating his ignorance and hate. That is why I believe in my cause. That is why I think I am an instrument of peace.
