For those getting late out of their beds today, just a hint. "Islam is like a drug" is not by me, but it is a quote from the essay and also it's published headline (-> "
In a sense, Islam is like a drug, like alcohol. A small amount can have a healing and inspiring effect, but when the believer reaches for the bottle of dogmatic faith in every situation, it gets dangerous." ) . I assume it was too much asked of some smartheads here to at least read that interview before the usual anti-Skybird rants got started. Well, everyone according to his intellectual capacity. I got news for some of you. The interview is not about Skybird at all.
Don't deal with me, but deal with that man and what he says. He knows Islam better than probably you all together. He is Egypt, is Muslim, was raised as a Muslim by a father being a Muslim teacher who wanted him to become a Muslim scholar, lived in a Muslim country before he came to Germany, is educated in Islam, got academic education in the West in politology and other branches - and Skybird has relatively little (nothing to be precise) to do with his statements. Skybird gave some lines on why he disagrees with him and on what, and that he nevertheless can get along with that guy for certain reasons.
Running computers by your own since long, I assume you know what to do with a link and how to click on it, yes...!?
