Dear All,

Which first so called answer?

I am not aware of having answered any of the twenty questions yet, and now, I no longer intend to do so. I may change my mind , but you too must have a basic level of competence in understanding simple things. 


You telling an intellectual and academic that he can’t talk. Think? I have answered most of my own questions and suggest that you learn to do the same – if you can, knowing as you do, and that I am not your fountain of truth.

 Last book read was “For What Tomorrow” 

English is my mother tongue. I did study English, philosophy and that more than anything else gave me a foundation to pursue such interests.

I just looked at this interesting item, which I’m sure will interest you too.

About whatever question bothers you had better look for your own answers. Ask you religious leader(s), the one(s) that you follow. I have grappled with problems that are much more complicated than whatever it is you are trying to say. I have a pile of books, still unopened, so now let me retire with this introduction by Dan Cohn-Sherbok that’s been on my shelf some three years now, I’ve read a couple of his other books:

http://www.amazon.com/Fifty-Key-Jewish-Thinkers-Cohn-Sherbok/dp/0415126282

I have now decided that I will not waste my time being nice.

I do not have a problem with either Islam or the Jewish people and I am probably not intelligent enough to make you or anyone else understand anything. I wish that I could have got across and hope that you will get the answers that you seek from people much better qualified to provide the answers that may satisfy you, the way that Abu Wafa al-Taftanzani satisfied me in Cairo, and dispelled the last little cloud that obscured my understanding. There was no beating about the bush.

I don’t have any questions for Lamin Sanneh either.

So please, some people’s rigorous demands are more difficult to meet than others, and here let me admit defeat, ok?

Merci.
