I mean, we already know there are Sunni, Shia, Ahmaddiya, the minor sect headed by the Agha Khan, there are several varieties of Salafist, some armed, some not, and neither of us is an expert on Islam, so I'd bet there are many more.Siarlys Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15083839117838391267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-59324506101124457.post-3231724271104353972016-03-02T17:00:03.414-08:002016-03-02T17:00:03.414-08:00Siarlys,

You can't have it both ways.<br /><br />However, her advice is sound.
