You just dont get it,the problem is not the lack of liberal muslims
There are many,but not heared.

There are many wrong things in the way West approaching muslims and İslam,
They use ways,or let me say wordings are not,and will NOT be accepted by any muslim.

Reforming İslam,changing verses of Qur'an...NONSENSE

There are verses is the bible that that least we can say is cruel
And they havent been changed...!

My point is...dig in İslam,dig in Quran itself,and get it by proves, that you can be liberal and also you can be a good Muslim
İ dont say to twist the meaning of the verses,nope,but to have wide understanding for them by what we are living today.
This actually happing too,many İmams qualified and reliable İmams is doing this
İmams that people can trust their knowledge of İslam.

ALLAH told us,HE brought this Qur'an for us to be suitable for all times,
And that is Qur'an miracle.

So yes,it indicate things happened in the past,events,problems and how to solve it in the past's circumstances
We can take the rule,and apply it in today circumstances and understanding...
İ dont say to change the rules 'haşa ALLAH' but to apply them within the spirit on the time we are living in.
Not standing where they were hundreds of years ago.

For example,many,many years ago,after Rasul SAV died by mmm 10 yrs maybe,there was a great,GREAT ruler,who was all Muslims ruler at that time
That man ,Ömer RA was one of Mohamed SAV friends who was always arround him and learing from him,whom Rasul ALLAH said about him ''Holly spirit would be sending verses from his tongue''indicating that what he says is right,and very much acceptable from ALLAH
Anyway,you know that there is rule in İslam to cut the hand of the one who steal
İn that time,Muslims were living in great poverty,they even couldnt find food to eat
So,he cancelled this penalty on those days
So İslam was and is open to flexibility
There was no,and will be NO imam like Ömer RA,and he had done this many many years ago.

There are İmamlar who is doing this today also,they dont leave İslam rules and showing people how to live with them also within the current time circumstances
Those imamlar should be heared and have louder voices.

But talking about reforming İslam ?!
FORGET İT !

İ know its off the topic,but some how it is also in the topic,
Some way,i think war,or many of the wars are made because of men's arrogance ''No offence guys''
So,if women were in charge do you think it would be same,or things would be different ?
Would we have more peace than this hell wars we are having every where for no reasons ?
Or also greed would be a motivation ?!
