listen to the first few minutes. I ended up staying to the end because
the presenter made an intriguing case for why Islam might reform itself
into a much more moderate faith on its own primarily because of the
Internet.

The presenter indicates that he was born into Islam but left the faith -
as many others have - as a result of contact with other ideas on the internet.

How many people have become fundamental Moslems because of the Internet?

I'm not completely sold on this notion yet by any means but I can't deny
that it is attractive. I'd rather that Islamists came to see that their
culture is in need of massive reform on their own rather than having to
have that dawn on them as a result of losing more and more violent
confrontations with non-Muslims.

I seriously doubt there will ever be a "Moslem Reformation", since, unlike the
Catholic Church, they kill heretics and apostates.
