Critical Thoughts

Ayaan Hirsi Ali, author of that equally hillarious “biography” she titled Infidel sure can be funny sometimes. Look at this:

The concept of God in Jewish orthodoxy is one where you’re having constant quarrels with God. Where I come from, in Islam, the only concept of God is you submit to Him and you obey His commands, no quarreling allowed. Quarreling or even asking questions means you raise yourself to the same level as Him, and in Islam that’s the worst sin you can commit. Jews should be proselytizing about a God that you can quarrel with. Catholics should be proselytizing about a God who is love, who represents a hereafter where there’s no hell, who wants you to lead a life where you can confess your sins and feel much better afterwards. Those are lovely concepts of God. They can’t compare to the fire-breathing Allah who inspires jihadism and totalitarianism.

Amazing logic there, infidel. I am sure that whenever me or my family members say Bismi Allahi ar-Rahman ar-Raheem, we do not mean “In the name of Allah, Most Gracious and Most Merciful” but we are really saying: “In the name of Allah, the Most Bad-Ass, the Greatest Kicker”.

Hirsi Ali has made me laugh today. And oh yeah, regarding your pitiful remarks about the Judeo-Christian conception of God, this will blow you away.

Pun intended.
