REZA ASLAN
is a superfly author and religious scholar. He's got a list of credentials that gives him some serious street cred in the world of Islamic studies and general scholarly pursuits. Currently he's working on a new book "How To Win A Cosmic War:Understanding (and Defeating) Jihadism". But if you haven't read his first book "No god but God" you're missing out on some serious knowledge and writing prowess. Plus even though he's the greatest smartie-pants ever he's a living doll and exceedingly cool to all his groupies.
This site is run by a couple of groupies. Please, don't use the message feature to message Reza himself. You'll only reach a couple of girls nodding in agreement that he rules.
Great new film in progress.

"Some believe there is nothing one man or one woman can do against the enormous array of the world's ills -- against misery, against ignorance, or injustice and violence. Yet many of the world's great movements, of thought and action, have flowed from the work of a single man. A young monk began the Protestant reformation, a young general extended an empire from Macedonia to the borders of the earth, and a young woman reclaimed the territory of France. It was a young Italian explorer who discovered the w World, and 32 year old Thomas Jefferson who proclaimed that all men are created equal. Give me a place to stand,' said Archimedes, and I will move the world.' These men moved the world, and so can we all."
~ Robert F. Kennedy Quotes
We all,as individuals and collaboratively, better take responsibility for moving the world immediately....moving the world to come together as ONE. If for some reason you think you are exempt from thinking about such things or doing anything about it, you had better get your head out of your ass!

I am actually in the process of trying to set up a lecture for him to speak at in San Diego. I have been emailing him and his agent about setting something up as soon as possible. Once I know the details of the event I will let you guys know for sure.
There's a live telecast he's doing at my school on the 12th, its about his new book. I can't wait! And I'd just like to add that there is now one more reason I'd like to live in Cali. LOL
NO FRICKIN WAY HE WAS AT THE LIVING ROOM!!! OMG If he was I'm going to cry! Oh well, c'est la vie...if it's meant to be we will run into each other one day. Well I just wanted to tell Annie that the way I've dealt with the kind of ignorance on Bill Maher's level is by solely watching The Daily Show and The Colbert Report...because I honestly cannot take any of those network political shows seriously...let alone understand what anyone is saying since they all scream over each other. I hope everyone is doing well, keep on fighting the good fight, and I look forward to further political banter with the real intellectual elite...my fellow Aslan groupies! MUAH!
Hey guys, here's a transcript link to Reza on Anderson Cooper 360 from Oct. 18. I didn't happen to catch it so if anyone knows where it's available in video form let us in on it. http://www6.lexisnexis.com/publisher/EndUser?Action=UserDisplayFullDocument&orgId=574&topicId=100007219&docId=l:687827546&start=10
Al-righty then: I can see my attempt to rally discourse and debate and elicit exchanges from you other groupies has failed miserably. (Is it because I'm a dirty hippie? I save water, people!)
In any case, I agree with what Reza said in the CNN interview — thanks for posting it, Stella ;)
I haven't been able to watch any of those bloggingheads.tv pieces, Maggie — I'm missing a plug-in, apparently, but it won't tell me which one, and I'm pathetically computer-illiterate...
Oh, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! (Should I have brought a gift?)
