It's very important not to get caught up in the follies of one's period of history. Those follies usually involve demonizing someone, whether witches, gays, Jews or Muslims. There are long and strong traditions of peaceful coexistence between Muslims, Christians, and Jews, especially from the best periods of the Ottoman empire and the Moorish empire. The contact of Islam with western democracy will see the emergence of a new sunnah where ijtihad (emergence of fresh viewpoints on scripture) has come out of the closet after 10 centuries of allowing only progressive cultural staling. Anyways, the concept of eliminating a world religion practised by millions of people is a desperately unrealistic fantasy that can only be treated as a joke. And I do think you're bantering rather than being ultra serious. Now as for experimenting with yourself, yes, boys do do it. You're not alone. It falls under the general theme of masturbation not being forbidden. But as BigCalv stresses, spiritual pursuits deserve attention too. Where he'd have you give up your carrot, I'd just say to find a good balance of time spent. |
