Yeah, I do realize there are a lot of issues on my side of the fence.

I was simply giving an explanation as to how things can stay stationary. Why do you think the Ottomans’ fell? That was because a significant number of clergy were hostile to the Tanzimat, and eventually fell behind a member of the family who opposed it. Which in turn caused an irreversible decline.

In regards to the Mormons, its the same thing as the Confederacy for me. Though, yes, I do tend for the negative than the positive. Instead of showing how Muslims are good Americans, I tend to go divisive, which doesn’t help.
