I don't follow, you aren't making sense. In the absence of progressives, how do you propose progress is introduced? Because progressive Muslims are the ones introducing progress (surprise!) to Islam. Progressives are the reason you're seeing tons of educated Muslim women in the West (this is not a starting point, pick something that hasn't already been happening for decades), and progressives are who will eventually bring the majority of Islam world wide into the 21st century.

Ranting against progressive Muslims who are trying to dispel violence and hatred from their religion? That doesn't make any sense.
