Scholasticism and Islam

From the Orthodox Convert Discussion Group:

"Scholasticism aimed at Islam will only do what has been done with Christianity: the lukewarm will become secularized, the fanatic will become more so, and the remainder will find some way in which they can deal with the contradictions."

One could quibble with this a bit, but it is fairly accurate---especially if by "dealing with contradictions" one is referring to the gleeful way in which postmoderns (of whatever ecclesiastical or religious flavor) are wont to changing definition of words to mean the opposite of what they have meant for the last 2000 years.
