Infidel


Martin and I have spent the last few days' spare hours reading "Infidel" by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. The book is a best-seller and even available at the "Real Canadian Superstore" (grocery store), which shows how widely it is being distributed.

This morning I spent looking up her movie on Youtube. From there I wandered to survey what else is on Youtube on the subject. From there one gets into Richard Dawkins and atheism and videos about how all religions are wrong and bad.

My main thought after all this is, how important it is to let everyone have their say. We don't want suppression of ideas, truths, discussions. Luther always said, he was fighting with the pen, not the sword. That's the right way.
