Interesting debate! Is the problem with Islam a need for reform, or Islamophobia? I side with Manji. The problem with Hasan's argument is that if you applied the same logic to US history before the Civil War, you would have judge the United States by what the Declaration of Independence said about freedom instead of the realities of slavery. Hasan makes just that argument about Islam: judge it by what the book says and not by what we see happening all over the world. I've seen this woman on Book Notes and she is impressive, and very brave! She is worth watching.
