Actually the solution is straightforward.shiv wrote:Ramana It may be deeper than that. The conversion comes with the compulsion that questioning one's own beliefs or opposing them leads to pain. It's like attitudes put in childhood about fearing dogs or snakes. The fear is deep and primaeval. There is very real fear of questioning one's own beliefs because that questioning is associated with all sorts of pain and suffering. So the focus is never on the discomfort of changing what's inside, but only on saying that what is outside - that is the others, the kafirs are wrong and if they changed (converted) all would be well.ramana wrote: The big question is how and when to get out of the Islamic forceful conversion.
It is a very very robust model and not amenable to easy solutions.
The solution is about taking the issue of religion completely out of the equation. Don't make it an issue of Islam. If one keeps on hammering each and every Muslim kabila, tanzeem, warlord, mafia boss, crushing them and ultimately humiliating them for their lack "strength", the fear would disappear. If one takes away every muscle that protects the Islamic mind, the Islamic model collapses.
The essence of Islam is Allah-endowed power at the personal, communal, local and national level.
If one breaks and humiliates each and every single center of power, the howva dissipates. In order to destroy power bases of others, one need not make it an issue of religion, which would consolidate those power bases, one can keep it an issue of "struggle of power between rival groups"!
