Yet going on seven years after the attacks that brought America’s attention to the problem, it is hard to say that we as a nation—a government and a people—have gotten any closer to identifying, much less aiding, those voices of Islamic moderation that we hope will ultimately triumph.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 40px;"&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/islam/" rel="tag"&gt;islam&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/religion/" rel="tag"&gt;religion&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/samharris.org/" rel="tag"&gt;samharris.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><clipSource>http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/finding-the-voices-of-moderate-islam/</clipSource><pubDate>Fri, 04 Apr 2008 01:01:19 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>The Atheist's Dilemma</title><link>http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/3A98899D-88E4-4E2D-BB73-2B0CD8BD438E/</link><description>&lt;b&gt;clipped by:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/clipper/Antara/"&gt;Antara&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;clipper's remarks:&lt;/b&gt;  Rest of article at :&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thenation.com/doc/20071203/pollitt" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.thenation.com/doc/20071203/pollitt&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;div border="2" style="margin-top: 10px; border:#000000 1px solid;" width="90%"&gt;&lt;div style="background-color:"&gt;&lt;div align="center" width="100%" style="padding:4px;margin-bottom:4px;background-color:#666666;overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#FFFFFF;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Clip Source: &lt;a style="color:#FFFFFF;" href="http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/the-atheists-dilemma/" title="http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/the-atheists-dilemma/"&gt;www.samharris.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt;
How likely is it that the world’s 1.3 billion Muslims will wake up one morning and abandon their ancestral faith? Even if you are a ferocious Sam Harris-style atheist who thinks religion is completely stupid--the province of shysters and fools--you have to admit it would be quite astonishing if that view persuaded the devout anytime soon: This Koran, which I thought was dictated to the Prophet by an angel, is totally ridiculous and poorly written to boot! Muhammad, that child molester, most definitely did not fly to heaven and back on a winged horse! What an idiot I was to give these notions a moment’s credibility! There’s no question in my mind that horror at militant Islam and fear of Muslim immigration lie behind at least some of the current vogue for atheism--you don’t make the bestseller list by excoriating the evils of Lutheranism or Buddhism.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 40px;"&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/atheism/" rel="tag"&gt;atheism&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/islam/" rel="tag"&gt;islam&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/koran/" rel="tag"&gt;koran&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/religion/" rel="tag"&gt;religion&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><clipSource>http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/the-atheists-dilemma/</clipSource><pubDate>Wed, 21 Nov 2007 18:25:58 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Theo Van Gogh made this film and one of them already died for it. </title><link>http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/15013DC1-F051-429F-A257-BEC22F855061/</link><description>&lt;b&gt;clipped by:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/clipper/Antara/"&gt;Antara&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;clipper's remarks:&lt;/b&gt;  This was my first time really taking this story in.....the bravery of Theo Van Gogh in agreeing to make  this film (and keep his name on it )has caused me much to reflect on this day.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Almost 3 years since he was murdered......and Ayaan Hirsi Ali is still being hounded. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sam Harris and Salman Rushdie are so right: Tolerance of Intolerance is cowardice. &lt;br&gt;&lt;div border="2" style="margin-top: 10px; border:#000000 1px solid;" width="90%"&gt;&lt;div style="background-color:"&gt;&lt;div align="center" width="100%" style="padding:4px;margin-bottom:4px;background-color:#666666;overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#FFFFFF;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Clip Source: &lt;a style="color:#FFFFFF;" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr3fIxftyPQ&amp;mode=related&amp;search=" title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr3fIxftyPQ&amp;mode=related&amp;search="&gt;www.youtube.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;[Video]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 40px;"&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/islam/" rel="tag"&gt;islam&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/violence+against+women/" rel="tag"&gt;violence against women&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><clipSource>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr3fIxftyPQ&amp;mode=related&amp;search=</clipSource><pubDate>Tue, 09 Oct 2007 17:52:32 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
