The conversions of George Harrison, Bob Dylan, and Cat Stevens show that Aslan is, as always, wrong.

Reza Aslan, not that Aslan. That Aslan would know which religion sons of Adam and daughters of Eve were to embrace.

The portrayal of Harrison’s impact underemphasizes the fact that he stimulated a strong interest in Indian spirituality in the West among baby boomers.

religions are entirely what their followers make of them

Is that like when Khadijah and her grifter, Hebrew Gospel-quoting, cousin wrote the Koran?

 

 "Islam did not rise except through Ali's sword and Khadijah's wealth,"

Shouldn’t “Reza Aslan” be Reza Tash?

They are not the same.

Isaac Hayes converted to Scientology... that didn’t work out to well for him either I think.

Cat Stevens later said he was joking about killing Rushdie because he was annoyed by the question.
Yeah...right
