Sam Harris is a prominent anti-Muslim poster boy. He has written books on the supposed dangers of Islam and Muslims.

In a very long article, a former Muslim (now an atheist) systematically tackles all the points Harris raises and exposes comprehensively and conclusively the deceitful and erroneous tactics, and shows ultimately that Harris is as credible as the resident anti-Muslims here.

The common theme is to try and repeat lies that have already been exposed. Indeed it will not have gone unnoticed that a banned member is doing a( great impression of a stuck record and trying to convince everyone that up is actually down, based on his fantasies of others and supported by nothing more than quotes which prove him wrong).

But as with all Islamophobic myths - the reality is easily exposed when we look beyond the wild accusations and selectively manipulated quotes (some just deliberately misrepresented to say exactly the opposite of what is written).

Theodore Sayeed self-describes as a former Salafist turned Atheist. In the following Mondoweiss article, Sayeed takes Sam Harris’ arguments and hypocritical double standards apart piece by piece.

After everything is said and done what we are left with is a Harris who will likely be left with only his cultish followers. I do hope Harris responds, but as has been his modus operandi in the past he will probably just try to ignore Sayeed’s article, praying that it will be overlooked and or won’t do his PR gimmick any damage.
