Has anyone noticed that the Islamic voice of reason is almost entirely female?
There's another woman, older woman in NYC,(can't remember her name off hand) that has hammered the Islamic patriarchy relentlessly, for years.

I am still trying to find a copy of the preface written by the Imam. This guy really lays it down about the author. Here is some snips I copied:
"Let us face a simple fact: I should hate Irshad Manji. If Muslims listen to her, they will stop listening to people like me, a imam who spent years at a traditional Islamic University."
"She has a big mouth and fact upon fact to corraborate her analysis."
"I should hate this woman."
"But then I look into my heart and engage my mind, and I come to a discomforting conclusion: Irshad is the the truth. And my God commands me to uphold the truth - which means that I have to side with her."
There is much more.
