Islamic Modernism is a political ideology that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a response to the rapid changes and challenges brought about by European colonialism and imperialism in the Muslim world.

In what ways do you think education about religious history can be modified to resonate with modern youth?
@9L6SS242mos2MO
Teach religion objectively in school and note the negative consequences of extremism. Christianity should not be seen as inherently better or more virtuous than other religions and as such should not be the foundation of the government, it is, however, fair to say that how islam is currently practised is by far the most damaging to contemporary society.

Richer countries should help out the poorer countries as they cant sustain themselves
@9L6SQP7Women’s Equality2mos2MO
I feel like in school we talk about religious history that doesn’t matter or the parts that we are okay with. We should be taught the positive, the negative, and the ugly. We need to see every bit of the history that formed our world.

@9L62BVW2mos2MO
Faith is what filters what I see/ watch on my phone or TV

How can individual acts of kindness reflect both modern values of social justice and religious teachings?
@9JLXJ87Women’s Equality4mos4MO
Indivdual acts of kindness on Islamic Modernism affects both modern values of social justice and relgious teaching because it will allow different cultures and relgions to join together and people can be more open to different relgions.

religion is a joke and needless violence for a false god is worthless

When thinking about equality, how should we reconcile traditional religious roles with contemporary views on gender and rights?
@9HKPZC75mos5MO
Religion should be a free choice as long as it doesn’t pose a threat to anyone. Everyone is allowed to have their own beliefs and views.

@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you feel religious texts should be updated or re-translated to reflect modern language and sensibilities?
@9HKQGRCPeace and Freedom5mos5MO
No sence you can't control or do anything about a religion since its it own religion.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
What does a modern, inclusive religious community look like to you?
@9L394ZNRepublican 2mos2MO
people who have beliefs that may not agree with other opinion and people should not hurt them verbally or physically just because they have different beliefs
@9KRYFLNJustice party member2mos2MO
Not discriminating people based on who they believe.

Every person, regardless of any difference, should be able to co-exist peacefully

What personal experiences have you had with balancing your faith with the expectations of modern life?
@9J5BVDS4mos4MO
I lived in Japan and China and didn't have much contact with Islamist people, but the most I can say is that one of my former high school dormitory classmates was a Muslim and he couldn't eat pork and then all of us didn't eat pork for him.
@9J5BR4S4mos4MO
I am Constantly balancing my faith with the expectations of modern life.

What is the role of traditional storytelling in preserving your faith in a digital era?
@9KK5SYCIndependent3mos3MO
I'm not Islamic, however, I feel like the two can coexist.
@9KK5QTL3mos3MO
Digital media can be altered and changed to fit a certain narratives based on what an agenda has.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How could your personal beliefs facilitate the discussion about the separation of church (or mosque) and state?
@9HH2GNWTranshumanist6mos6MO
I believe the action of modernizing your belief is an extent all religions should take. Some religions are involved with human rights violations, which should be addressed and resolved.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
Have you ever engaged in a religious dialogue that was both respectful of diversity and transformative in its conclusions?
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
What actions do you take to ensure that your spiritual expressions are understood and respected in diverse environments?
@9LFNTP41mo1MO
While I understand that faith is important to people, it should not lead to willful ignorance on the world. I am for a metaphorical interpretation of scripture, but completely oppose literalist interpretations.
@9LFN7VG1mo1MO
I have no care nor education for the topic nor do i have any spiritual expressions.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
What steps can we take to ensure a respectful discourse on sensitive religious topics in diverse, multicultural settings?
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
How do you prioritize when your religious duties clash with your academic or career responsibilities?
@9JLW6QX4mos4MO
I don't think that someone should be fired because they can't fulfill a duty from their workplace because of their religion. They should be given some leeway, but it cannot be abused.
@9JLVF62Republican4mos4MO
I don't well because my religious standing is very important to me and my culture and when i start to get some sort of hate or discrimination for what I truly belive in it makes me angry because i am in a country where i have the freedom of religion and when people do not allow me to do something because of what i belive i do not handle it well
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How much influence do you think religious leaders should have over the choices and lifestyles of their followers in modern society?
@9HKP3HTConstitution5mos5MO
They shouldn't , the religion itself should, if they do believe in it, they follow it.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How can ancient religious teachings stay relevant in today's fast-paced, tech-driven world?
@9HKPJTW5mos5MO
The fast pace and tech-drivenness are ultimately just an aesthetic; look up job opportunities for COBOL programmers sometime. Islam is doing fine as it is, and they have the fate of the Anglicans and Methodists — and the Catholic Church after Vatican 2 — to warn them of the dangers of making too many concessions to modernity.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How can gender equality be realized within an Islamic framework in today's society?
@9HKQB2M5mos5MO
Promoting gender equality in Islamic modernism involves reinterpreting texts, empowering women in education and leadership, and fostering a broader understanding of Islamic teachings for equality and justice.
