Please don’t insult my intelligence.
//he's rather disturbingly using current tensions to plead for the government support in establishing it.//
Why disturbingly? This is a subject that has been at the centre of social tensions for a very long time. The author has said quite openly that “Academic specialists on Islam have the intellectual capacity to challenge the clergy's binary division of the world - but many are fearful of being branded as heretics by the orthodox establishment.” - and that is the problem. Until more Muslims have the courage to stand against radical Islam, as he is doing, nothing will change – and yes, the government should support them.
I sometimes get the impression that some of the people here would rather things didn't change.
