Episcopalian priest says, "I could not not be a Muslim..."
"I could not not be a Muslim..."
. . .
With the benefit of hindsight, it should have been obvious that the first female imam would be an Episcopalian...
As Chesterton said, "When people stop believing in God, they don't believe in nothing -- they believe in anything."
And as Oscar Wilde said, "The Catholic Church is for saints and sinners alone. For respectable people the Anglican Church will do."

The situation in Malaysia clearly illustrates how poorly the West, especially its media, understands the world beyond its insular borders. While Western human rights advocates and transnationalists speak grandly about the "UN Charter" and "international law" and the universality of the Geneva Conventions, in reality much of the world merely pays lip-service to them. Or invoke them to bludgeon the United States without any intention of applying these so-called "international standards" to themselves. CAIR, for example, can rise indignantly to claim rights and freedoms in the United States that are not reciprocally granted in Saudi Arabia or Malaysia. That would not surprise those who believe laws and customs vary according to country. But it would publicly astonish -- emphasis on publicly -- those who claim that "international standards" are universally valid and accepted, even though they are manufactured in the small city of Brussels, whose delusions vary proportionately to its insularity.
