If it were up to me.

Kaal Bhayya,
You have a point about passive and active, witness and missionary, audience and actor - very convincing. (T)

I wish that we Muslims had not been saddled with this duty to share our good fortune and (our wealth) with those neighbors who have not been equally blessed. This intolerable duty makes us unpopular with some, hated by others, and rarely appreciated by most. 8-| Additionally, it results in loss of life, liberty, and wealth on our part.

Seriously, if it were up to me, I would keep our faith a secret, not share it with the losers, make friends with the unbelievers, save our resources, get rich, and then let everyone else go to hell. :(W)

I think I just defined Judaism. :(((
