Against The Term "Moderate Muslims"
From Ben at ANewtOne.

By Abdennur Prado, wherein are found the following gems of idiocy:In reality, the term "moderate Islam" is strange, since Islam is in essence a moderate religion. If these are the sacraments of a 'moderate religion', what in Hell are the sacraments of an 'extreme religion'? [I have quoted Rodwell's translation and linked to ten parallel translations and to Ibn Kathir's Tafsir.]
Fight them until...
The Order to fight to eradicate Shirk and Kufr
Make war upon such of those to whom the Scriptures have been given...
The Order to fight People of the Scriptures until They give the Jizyah
...Strike off their heads then, and strike off from them every finger-tip....
Allah commands the Angels to fight and support the Believers
... No prophet hath been enabled to take captives until he had made great slaughter in the earth...
The Command to strike the Enemies' Necks, tighten Their Bonds, and then free Them either by an Act of Grace or for a Ransom.
Abu Dawud Book 38, Number 4390: Narrated Atiyyah al-Qurazi: I was among the captives of Banu Qurayzah. They (the Companions) examined us, and those who had begun to grow hair (pubes) were killed, and those who had not were not killed. I was among those who had not grown hair.
There is no moderate Islam, because there isn't any immoderate Islam, for the same rule of three: if someone is fanatical, it means that he has made his religion a barrier, an idol against other religions, therefore he has not accepted diversity as a mandate, and he has not submitted himself to a Creator who gives us diversity as one of His most marvelous signs. What mandate for diversity?
Whoso desireth any other religion than Islam, that religion shall never be accepted from him, and in the next world he shall be among the lost.
The Only Valid Religion To Allah is Islam
O ye who have believed! form not intimacies among others than yourselves....
The Prohibition of Taking Advisors From Among the Disbelievers
He it is who hath sent His Apostle with the Guidance and a religion of the truth, that He may make it victorious over every other religion, albeit they who assign partners to God be averse from it.
Fighting the Jews and Christians is legislated because They are Idolators and Disbelievers Allah won't tolerate anything other than Islam, prohibits friendship with Kuffar(unbelievers/infidels), and ordains fighting them. So much for diversity!!!
Dean; The words of Allah and Muhammad are clear, there is no such thing as a "moderate Muslim".
