@rezaaslan I'm an ex-Muslim. Because being told my conscience is irrelevant, that Allah's cruel dictates are what's good, is unacceptable.

@rezaaslan In Islam, one isn't at liberty to disputenthat which challenges the conscience. Allah said this, Muhammad said that, so shut up.

@rezaaslan But that's somewhat contradictory: if it makes more sense to you then surely it's "more true" for you than other religions. -
@rezaaslan That isn't to say that we disparage other religions, not in the least but we invite people to the truth as we understand it. -
@rezaaslan And it would be selfish not to do so, if we are indeed believers. - End of conversation

@rezaaslan I'm frustratingly attracted to your perspective, but I never see you give a proper handling of 'revelation.' It's disapointing.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
