@rezaaslan @ggreenwald ridiculous to use Harris as a way of assessing New Atheist approach to Islam. He's incredibly extreme on the issue.
Absolutely brilliant destruction of Sam Harris' overt anti-Muslim animus by @GGreenwald. Don't miss this piece.http://gu.com/p/3eq3n/tw

@charlsgeorgeson@ggreenwald NOt more extreme than Dawkins or Hitchens. -
@rezaaslan@ggreenwald Dawkins has never said anything approaching the Harris line Re: fascists on Islam. -
@charlsgeorgeson@ggreenwald Reallly???? "Ioften say Islam [is the] greatest force for evil today." That's your Dawkins my friend. -
@rezaaslan@ggreenwald That might be hyperbole, but it's not as extreme as fascist line. Islam causes lots of harm... -
@charlsgeorgeson@ggreenwald "the greatest force of evil today" That's not hyperbole. It's irrational, unscientific bigotry -
@rezaaslan@ggreenwald I would say it is hyperbole, and it is certainly not bigotry, nor does 'science' come into it.

@rezaaslan@ggreenwald@mehdirhasan If all you guys gather from Harris' work is "Islamophobia" then you're a bunch of insecure tools.. lol. -
