I used the word progressive in capitals to insinuate biting sarcasm.
On the one hand the Saudi's pay huge sums to public relations and media lobbies (some here in the US) to push forward the notion worldwide that the kingdom flourishes under modern technology and, is in their terms - "progressive". Yet because of the exact reasons AL stated they must leave defined concepts (however antiquated) of the religion in place.
My point (albiet to subtle) was to point out this hypocrisy and that even they, are scared of the militants amongst them.
Yes, I do know what progressive means, and yes, I believe we are at war with islam.
