Well who else is he going to invite to rethorical debates and policy settings, people that already agree with him? That would make for pretty borring debates. As for "Cyber Fatwa" c'mon. The man is entitled to his opinions same as you or me.. and if you read his post-modern analysis of the word "progressive" at the begining of his book, you would get the impression (along with a minor headache) that the word is so restrictive that even he doesn't fit into it. It's not a double standard.. it's a typical liberalist unreachable standard.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00252009077683208109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9121648.post-1129525764307198922005-10-16T22:09:00.000-07:002005-10-16T22:09:00.000-07:00wakey wakey - see the date on this post? it was wr...wakey wakey - see the date on this post? it was written b/4 Omid Safi resigned from the PMU - at that time he was very much the Chairman of the PMU. wakey wakey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9121648.post-1129517937368429182005-10-16T19:58:00.000-07:002005-10-16T19:58:00.000-07:00Newsflash: Safi learned and moved on, and left the...Newsflash: Safi learned and moved on, and left the PMU. it's been some time now. wakey wakey. <BR/>Nice how you criticize people who are "too tolerant" as well as people who are critical. clearly you're purely reactionary in your agenda rather than principle-driven. As long as someone once used the word "progressive", you will be sure to attack them, regardless of what else they do/are. Your crowing and gloating are not pleasant to observe. WHo is a MUSLIM and who is not is not for you to decide. As for who is progressive or not, now that is not "takfeer" so your title is misleading at best and untruthful and slanderous at worst. I'm sure drmaxtor will attack me in response, but then that's what he does.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
