Ismail Bey saw that it was necessary for all the Turkic peoples and groups to use a common "Turki" language in order for them to advance, to coordinate their activities in line with what he believed to be the ideal.
He was responsible for founding a special school in Bahçesaray that would concentrate its efforts on such renewal of religious and spiritual education; it utilized the "mother" Turkic tongue and has set the foundations for continued renewal in Turkic Islam.
The leaders of some of these schools were beginning to believe that the problem was with the use of Arabic letters and were beginning to consider the introduction of another "more appropriate" alphabet.

 The Religious Left - New York Times
But the history of the religious left seems to stop in 1968, the endpoint of Martin Luther King's movement as well as the starting point of a decades-long trend by which Democrats have become the secular party and Republicans the religious party.
After three bruising national elections that can at least partly be explained by the party's failure to connect with religious voters, Democrats are suddenly rediscovering their past.
Their prophet is Jim Wallis, an evangelical Christian who has become almost synonymous with the religious left, a sort of Pat Robertson for liberals.

 Joanna Baillie
Baillie’s interest in Constantinople as the last remnant of a refined and learned civilization overthrown by violent pagan forces is part of her long-standing interest in individual human dignity and sensitivity in the face of seemingly uncontrollable human passions.
Before the threat of collapse began, Constantinople and its leaders represented a civilized, if decadent culture, as Baillie knew from Gibbon’s account of advancing barbarism against declining civilization (like most of her contemporaries, she sets aside Gibbon’s point that barbarism began with Christianity, preferring the interpretation that Christianity represented a civilizing element).
Baillie offered to the literary world a new way of looking at drama and poetry; yet, up to now, her plays and poems are not even anthologized in our studies of the Romantic Period.

The meeting was the first wide-scale effort by Iraq's embittered and increasingly isolated Sunnis to band together politically, and was broadly attended by what organizers said was about 2,000 Sunni Arabs from Baghdad and nearby cities.
Sunnis are a fractured group and are not united around one single religious leader, as the Shiites are around Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani.
One conspicuous absence on Saturday was that of the National Dialogue Council, the group that took the lead in the ill-fated negotiations with Shiites for positions in the new cabinet.
