Don’t know about the book or it’s arguments, but still didn’t know more about the book from this interview.

Truthfully, it sounds like the producer wanted some controversy so told the newswoman to bang away at the one talking point about his Muslim-ness and ignored everything else.

Stupid television in persuit of ratings. Eh.

I agree, and I would add that Reza Aslan's publishers would have wanted the same thing. Controvesy sells.

There was someone in England who wrote a book called "The Head of God". Aside from having an odd title, it was all full of fanciful theory and folklore. The author caught a real lucky break when an Anglican clergyman got into the media and denounced it.

That Anglican clergyman must have been the author's best friend from school, or his brother-in-law, or something.
