How did Ayaan Hirsi Ali turn out the way she did?
Asma at the Peanut Gallery has been reading Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s autobiography, and has been wondering where things went wrong for Ayaan Hirsi Ali, such that she turned away from Islam. What can we do to protect ourselves from such a fate?
But somehow, some or, I hope, most of us, don’t end up where she did - frustrated with Islam, unable to reconcile it with her deep seated notions of equality, sexuality, and individuality. That raises a question, though: why her? Why not us? What was different?

@ its sad as well as futile for such human beings ” being instrumentalised ” by the modern
Nazism of journalism mixed with dirty anti-Islamic policies practiced by the western failures. I know, on french & belge TV atleast 5 of the so called ” Intellectuals “carrying
apparently muslim names but are nothing but a
victims of their own ” Khibasat-e-Batenah “. As for the human-being in question, well a cow
is a cow can not be a horse or even a donkey !!
all at a time.
In punjabi language there is a wonderful
proverb
” Rab dangan nei marda, dendah mat nou
maar “.
Nobody has ever seen GOD coming down
with a hockey bat to punish, but He simply turns our brains bananas, and we start doing silly things.
