Hi Susan,
>And Muslim societies continue to persecute us in the name of their
religion. Any Muslim who fails to speak out against this, IMV shares
religion. Any Muslim who fails to speak out against this, IMV shares
in some of the responsibility for their religion being perverted in this way.<
While I agree with this, it occurs to me that Muslims may actually
be afraid to speak out against the persecution of Baha'is, for fear
that they themselves will become targets of the violence and venom
of fanatics. If a Muslim believes that speaking up in defense of
the Baha'is might well mean that he would be killed or lose his job,
then it would take extraordinary bravery to speak in spite of that threat.
This is not an excuse for silence in the face of evil, but it makes
the silence understandable. How do you see this?
