Why afraid discussing it openly?

They don't want people with alternate views to "confuse" Muslims.

Group wants stop to open talk on Islam

ALOR STAR: A special forum under the Malay Rulers' Council should be set
up to prevent views on Islam from being discussed openly.

Kedah 2006 Ulama Conference director Mohd Azmi Abdul Hamid said Islamic
scholars and experts should sit in the forum.

?We should not let Islam be debated openly by non-experts, which would
confuse Muslims,? he told newsmen after the conference yesterday.

Mohd Azmi said the Kedah 2006 Ulama Conference had agreed on 10 pages of
resolutions to be distributed to the Malay Rulers' Council, leaders and
MPs.

He said that among the resolutions were those on the understanding of
apostasy, Islamic liberation, power of the Syariah Court and the
conference's rejection for a plan to set up an Inter-Faith Commission.

Mohd Azmi said the resolution also covered issues on international
conflicts including Iraq's invasion, Palestine and the turmoil in
southern Thailand.

But nothing about Sudan or Somalia.
