A Muslim by definition is one who submits. You can not be a moderate submitter lol.
You can be practicing, semi-practicing, or non-practicing muslim. Then there is also "Anyone who says LaIllahailAllah[there is no god but Allah] is a muslim." Which comes with guidlines.

good question,well i think it says in many places to study and learn things so that could lead to open mindedness but there are just so many restrictions,a practising muslim could probably point you in the right direction.

Actually she is here by my invitation, we have been p.m.-ing on youtube and I suggested she join the forum.
I did so in the hopes us having an easier time discussing because, well the youtube p.m. system is tiresome, and because as far as I know there are no female muslims on the forum and it would be cool to have at least one of those voices.
I don't know why she has only posted 1 post (maybe PC problems) but I think she'll come back.

I hope so. I for one thought I was just probing gently, not trying to be nasty.

i don't post much on these youtube vids on islam,it's annoying when some of your comments get removed and some left standing so as to make the owner of the video look as if they'd won the discussion,like what happens when people comment on this womans video :lay:

Yeah I also hate when that happens, the "best" I've gotten was a 'well I guess we have to agree to disagree', I wouldn't take that so the user promptly banned me and deleted subsequent comments :banghead:
