Anil #124, {"This brings me to ask a question, why some muslims not take the lead and say that portion Quran are not relevant any longer in this mosque, and others are accepted in this Mosque without any change? You simply don’t ask and don’t tell."]
Anil,
As usual, you have asked a very good and pertinent question. Yes, this has been tried - the Bahaii faith was a result. Probably the most decent, modern, and humane of all philosophies, this offshot of Shia Islam, is becoming quite popular among peace-loving individuals all over the world. I visited their wonderful Lotus Temple when I visited Delhi a few years back.
Also, some Muslims have taken another approach - individualizing Islam. I have abandoned institutional Islam for a more personalized faith. I just don’t do things that I do not agree with. Islam, as a personal religion, is pretty rational and gives one a solid base for personal principles. Having a Muslim name does become an issue, thanks to those "mainstream" Muslims who love to advertise their religion and always manage to present it in the worst light possible - all at the expense of other Muslims.
