Sometime up in the future, Islam is going to go through a huge turmoil and upheaval, finally purging themselves of the apostasies and false doctrines like Wahhabism and some of the more extreme passages that have been attributed to Mohammad. Project that some scholars acting as agents may consider undertaking:

Translate the Qu'ran from its original Arabic to modern English vernacular. Rewrite the more inflammatory passages or eliminate them and all references to them altogether. Then retranslate the redacted text into Arabic, and seize all the old versions, replacing them with the revised verses for distribution to every Muslim household.

Islam may be a fine religion by which to plan one's life. But it may need a little nudge from time to time.

These dudes definitely need to be taken out. They are the cancer that is destroying Islam from within and making it a danger to the rest of the world.

I remember an article a while ago about an ultra-orthodox Muslim sect. They lived well and peacefully in modern society and the women did not wear burkhas. They said they were following the letter and intent of the Quran, and had the passages to back it up. Now if only these guys could get that massive Saudi funding that is going to the Wahhabis.

Which parts are good? The shoving the ass 5 times in the air a day for their allah? Brutalizing and keeping their women as 3rd class citizens? Or perhaps the unbelievably blatant commands to convert or kill the nonbelievers?

This can never happen. There is no centralized authority that can do this.
