QUEST FOR MODERN ISLAM: JORDAN PETERSON AND MUSTAFA AKYOL ON ISLAM, CHRIST AND LIBERTY

Islam apologists have long pointed to a moderate Islam. The fiercest critics of Islam are holding on the other hand that Islam is Islam. But if Jews and Christians can reform, so can Muslims. Indeed you can't change an ideology, but you can change the mindset of the people and the culture. Key is the long and hard process of individualization and dropping the totalitarian aspects that have long bedeviled Mohammedanism.



Nov. 8, 2021 Jordan Peterson talks to Mustafa Akyol about Islam, Christ, and Liberty.

UPDATE: Mustafa Akyol and Jordan Peterson discuss Muslim history and tradition. They touch on subjects like Jesus Christ from a Christian and Muslim perspective, the Virgin Mary's role in the Koran, separation of Church and State as an ideology, the dangers of literalism when facing religious texts, and much more.
