Is there an absolute definition to these categories though? I would be pissed off too if I was a Muslim and the radical minority hijacked the terminology and twisted it into something different. But to the radical Muslims, their definition is the correct one.<p>How do you argue which definition is more correct than the other? By Historical precedence? By how we interpret the teachings? By popularity? It just seems like the definition of the religion itself is so amorphous that it is very susceptible to terminology hijacking.<p>Would it do the Muslim population more practical good if they started distancing themselves away from the term &quot;Muslim&quot; and called themselves something different to make the distinction more impactful in the eyes of the public?
