Christian Science Monitor Article on Koran Desecration
What started as a short blog entry has blossomed into a full op-ed piece. I'm grateful to say it will be published in the May 25, 2005 Christian Science Monitor, one of my all-time favorite newspapers, which I coincidentally did a study on at NU.
The article is up now on the on-line edition. You may read it here. (al-hamdulillah)

You rock, dude. Awesome, reflective piece.
It reminded me of how I got my first Bible (Actually, just the New Testament) - from a born-again with whom I spent a year studying Arabic in Arabland.
He had mentioned wanting to read the Qur'an, so I found him an English-Arabic version (Yusuf Ali); afterwards, I mentioned that I was curious about how the Bible looked in Arabic. The next week, there was "Kitab al-Hayat" on my desk, also in English and Arabic (with the words Jesus spoke in red, of course).
Wow! Good story, Abuljude, about Kitab. I have seen it before (with the red). Finally, I've always wanted to "rock" ever since my Led Zeppelin days.
How's the feedback been on the CSM article? Fan Mail? Flames?

Anon, response has been pretty good, so far. Thankfully.
Thanks good. I wonder what the average audience is of CSM (i.e. libereral, conserv, red, blue etc.)
Any word on a reprint US News? Date?

in post above: Thanks good = Thats good.
Not sure what you mean, Anon, by "Any word on a reprint US News? Date?"
meaning when are they going to do a reprint of your CSM article in newsweek.
Ah. Got it. I'll send it off right away.
