The cruel death of Mohan Amir Aslani: this Iranian psyschologist was hanged--hanged--eight
days ago for teaching that the story of Jonah in the Qur'an may have
been symbolic, not literal. He may have been collateral damage in a
wider war within Iran of extremists trying to de-stablise Iran's
reforming President Rouhani. But he is another martyr to the way radical
Islamists make Islam a spiritual North Korea: it's paradise here, and
we'll kill you if you try to leave.
And the Qur'an needs
some fresh interpreting. Without it, radical Islam, unbending, will
continue to bang and smash violently around in the world. God have mercy
on his soul, and his family.
