Im sorry but I don't think Islam is going to change one bit.
I think the situation in Iran would point otherwise. Sure, it won't happen over night but there are changes coming.

No such thing as \"radical\" Islam, or \"modern\" Islam. There is Islam, either you follow or you don't.

If it is in the Quran, and they follow it in the correct manner, they are being a good muslim, the Quran leads us to the straight path, not astray.
No way man. The Quran will be the Quran, never can man alter its words. The muslims will change, but the true muslims will always hold faith. The Quran is such an easy book to understand, if you just take the time to understand it.
Plus, you have just divided the muslims in two, the "true" muslims and what's left of muslims. i.e. radical and moderate.
