        "I am Muslim not because I think Islam is "truer" than other religions (it isn't)" This is incomprehensible to me being a muslim.

        but do you practice any of the common rituals of Islam while you call yourself Muslim? (Still haven't read your books)

        What degree do you have that justifies the title "scholar of religions"?

        I like your distinction between religion and faith. How would you describe Scientology? Is that a religion?
