lastly, the whole statement by brother Qatada has to do what happens usually and not some exception cases.

In order to not come across as against Islam/Muslims some TV channels show a good 30 min/1 hour show on Islam e.g. Muslim Spain and their achievements, then a week later they would show Muslims dating site or muslims looking for love.

So I agree that they do not always show Islam in a good light but if they just happen to we should just accept it. (It's extremely rare though).

because with people like this, they have their own agenda, which i feel to a degree "nullifies" their good points or rather makes their opinions less favorable.

I think I have signed in my retirement on the modernist forum for a good while so I will concentrate a little more of my energies here. I pulled away from a couple forums in order to advance the forum inshallah

One of the task I will be doing is to transfer in a somewhat professional format the serious discussions I had with several revisionist in the other forum. Ater revealing the nature of these discussion, I would hardly doubt if anyone would consider them as having any emaan at all. I mean, a couple of them I had to understand the fact that they wee kaafirs, but others may not have went over the top, but they sure were tilting almost over it.
