I wonder if James has found Eco Islam yet. E.g., The Islamic Foundation for Ecology & Environmental Sciences: <http://www.ifees.org.uk/>. I can see what James will have to say about _that_!

I looked at the Web site of your "organization," and I completely understand why you have found movement-building "a hard road." :-> At the top on the home page of "Faith Freedom," it is proclaimed:

Faith Freedom International is a grassroots

movement of ex-Muslims. Its goals are to

(a) unmask Islam and show that it is an imperialistic

ideology akin to Nazism but disguised as religion

and (b) to help Muslims leave it, end this culture of hate

caused by their "us" vs. "them" ethos and embrace

the human race in amity. We strive for the unity of Mankind

through the elimination of Islam, the most insidious doctrine of hate.

(<http://www.faithfreedom.org/>)

Oh, dear. It's a movement of misfits who are not smart enough to pretend that they are striving for the unity of Mankind through the elimination of religion while covertly striving to target Islam alone. -- Yoshie <http://montages.blogspot.com/> <http://mrzine.org> <http://monthlyreview.org/>
