Mark Shea on Wafa Sultan
From The Hopes of the Secular Post-Christian West Encapsulated:
    The hope of the secular post-Christian West is that there will rise up from the Islamosphere a whole lot of Wafa Sultans: people who are culturally and religiously indistinguishable from the editorial board of the NY Times but dressed in Arab skin. These mythic legions will then, it is hoped, make Bronze Age Fanatics go away by arguing them down on Larry King.

    The West suffers from a fundamental failure to grasp that a diseased and inflamed spirituality can only be confronted by a healthy spirituality, not another diseased spirituality like Western post-Christian secularism and New Age drivel.
As I've said before, I'd take a Muslim hell-bent on Dhimmitizing what's left of Christendom over a seemingly milquetoast secularist hell-bent on marginalizing religion any day of the week.
