>Since the terror attacks of 2001, a debate has persisted over the distinction between Islamists and moderate Muslims, a distinction popularized by the 43rd American president George W. Bush and the former American Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Though central, this distinction has always been an amorphous and under-researched one, leading some left-wing pundits to claim that radical Muslims are just a tiny minority, ruining the perception of Islam for hundreds of millions of peaceful Muslims, while leaving certain right-wing pundits free to claim that secular, moderate Muslims do not actually exist. This test aims to gauge your conception of Islam by confronting you with commonplace points of contention between Islamists and moderate Muslims.

Post not only your final result, but also list whether you answered "Strongly Disagree-Disagree-Neutral-Agree-Strongly Agree" for each of the 36 questions

Nah, thanks FBI. I'll pass.

Posting each question here will take forever, but apparently I'm 64% moderate Islam.

Some of the questions seem a bit tricky. That one about rejecting hadiths is obviously wrong, but I bet disagreeing with it adds points to the Islamist side.

As for their definitions, something seems off about them but I can't put my finger on it.

>Moderate Muslim (Also known as: Secular Islam; Liberal Islam; Progressive Islam; Reformist Islam.)

>Islamism (Also known as: Islamic Fundamentalism; Radical Islam; Islamic Extremism; Militant Islam.)

>>20387

Yeah, I noticed that too. There's no "in between". You're either a "Liberal" or a "Member of ISIS".
