Today, the NYT published an article about Dr. Wafa Sultan. It seems that her appearance on al-Jazeera has caused quite a stir. Dr. Sultan is definitely entitled to her opinion, what I have a problem with is the following remarks in the NYT article. "I have reached the point that doesn't allow any U-turn. I have no choice. I am questioning every single teaching of our holy book."

The words "our holy book" and "questioning every single teaching" seems irreconcilable to me.
