This is worth checkin out if you're interested in the possibility of an open and tolerant Islam. It says of itself:
"Muslim WakeUp! champions an interpretation of Islam that celebrates the Oneness of God and the Unity of God’s creation through the encouragement of the human creative spirit and the free exchange of ideas, in an atmosphere that is filled with compassion and free of intimidation, authoritarianism, and dogmatism. In all its activities, Muslim WakeUp! attempts to reflect a deep belief in justice and against all forms of oppression, bigotry, sexism, and racism."
I hope that this is the start of such Muslims really standing up and offering an alternative to jihadist/islamist Wahhabism. They have a blog too.
