Feminism and ideological purity - written by womens' studies professor

Reminds me of a section of the BBC documentary "The Power of Nightmares".

In the documentary, they describe how Muslim radicals (in Sudan? Afghanistan? Wherever...) were dismayed their bombing of public areas did not cause the people to rise up, disavow their sinful ways, and rebel against the corrupt government.

Therefore the radicals concluded that anyone who did not believe as they did, was not a true muslim and therefore could be put to death.

You know how these things go... 'could' turns to 'must', disagreements on the interpretation of vague phrases in the holy book...

The factions splintered to the point where one faction consisted of only 7 people, and those 7 people were the only true Muslims, and everyone else in the country must be put to death.

I think Patai long-ago established she's an infidel along with the rest of us.

Nonetheless, I found her first-hand account amusing, how the very tools she used to dissect men were turned against her.
