For every extreme wahhabi there’s a modern Syafi’i. Richard Dawkins is a prominent extremist example, alongside the ever hypocritical Sam Harris.īut alternatively, for every Spanish inquisition there’s Mother Teresa. This hardliner view are no different than religious fundamentalists who want to destroy everyone else who doesn’t subscribe to their particular narrow view. Now, while I understand atheism and respect their private views, I do not tolerate anti-theism, the extremist idea that all religion are rotten to the core, have no use for humanity, only bring pain and destructions, and thus they all need to be destroyed. In fact, by reading Marxism I learned to understand their worldview and how they think, while simultaneously saw their many flaws that prompted me to be grateful that I am not living in a socialist country. Likewise, reading a book on atheism doesn’t instantly turn me into an atheist. Reading Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto doesn’t make me a socialist.
