For any Muslims in the forum, I would like to ask a couple of questions.

What is a mainstream Muslim stance on ideas such as abortion and evolution vs. creation. Do they have mainstream people within the religion who believe in evolution over creationism, and if they do are they ostracized in any way?

We know what various Christian groups think about this issue, and although most people in the U.S. are Christians, I think it is split roughly even on the above issues. There are alternatives such as Intelligent Design. Does this factor into Islam?

Hi Dom,

I am thinking there is not a lot of room for flexable ideas in the Muslim religion.

Abortion is not allowed in Islam.
That's what I know.

As for evolution over creationism. You can find it in the Quran.
