i am not a sufi scholar but it is clear that ur lack of understanding in sufism. u claim "I think that Sufism has been the main cause of the destruction of Muslim thought in the world" this is infact the complete opposite to sufism. infact it is the decline of sufism that has been the cause of dstruction of the muslim ummat. this dwstruction started after the 10 hijri. u will notice that after the 10 hijri sufis started to decline and in parrallel the ummat went down hill as well. claiming that the sufis r the xause of the destruction and in fact it is their lack of that is the cause of destruction is just like terry jones calling islam the devil. yet we know that islam is the true teachings of hazrata isa a.s. so in essence when they call islam the devil and want to burn the quran they r infact calling the true teachings of hazta isa a.a the devil. so infact it the ones who call hazrat isa a.as teachings the devil are infact the true devils all along. but terry joines like to believe that they are the treu followers of hazrat isa .a.s. do u c my point it is quite the opposite way around.
