    Its weird. I thought about the same thing. This could be the solution for global peace however I dont have enough knowledge to predict the consequences of something like this

    Very sobering to watch after what happened in Afghanistan. Their democracy movement was built from top down and it failed miserably due to corruptions. Hence, the soldiers could not match the will from the Talibans.

    The Bible advocates things as well that would seem horrific in the modern day. As a rule, thousand-year-old cultures tend to be somewhat behind the times in morality.

    Of course you know that morality is not really defined in that sense, perhaps it is subjective, but many think it's objective. I'm referring to morality.

    Remove religion. Remove extremism

      there is no removing "religion", those were supposed to reject religion and forming a religion of their own. Maybe the only solution is to replace the current religions with better ones.

    any one watching this video, should really take a look at another view of extremism on you tube by patcondell. Even better yet Patcondell should be on the Ted stage thumbs up if you agree.

    Many of the beliefs of islamic extremist 'mainstream' leaders are 20th century invention, what about 16th century depictions of Muhammed? What about ancient homoromantic poetry? What about the fact that bar a few areas the majority of muslim women (for example Ottoman Turkey) didn't cover their heads, but instead felt that modesty is in actions not in superficial appearance? Old islamic ideas such a very personal relationship with god, freedom, thought and debated are crushed by new extremism.

    Well morality is not really subjective, and if you look at the Gospels, which I am pretty sure you have not, they are an exact relection of the morality we currently consider to be right. This analysis does not include the Old Testament, as that is the history, and morality is in the New as evidenced by the new covenant. Nor does it include the corrupted teachings of Peter, which are not those of Jesus. There is not a single bad word or work from Jesus' life.

    There is no counter extremism at the global level?
    Yes there is MINHAJ-UL-QURAN..... DR. TAHIR-UL-QADRI is fighting against extremism at the global level by fighting countering the extremist ideology
