As Hugh Fitzgerald has often noted, Islam attracts the psychically marginal, for it provides a total explanation of the universe, taking away the difficult necessity of making moral decisions on one’s own. Islamic apologists often criticize Christianity for offering only “vague moral precepts,” comparing it unfavorably to Islam, which has a rule for everything that human beings can imagine doing. It is understandable that this total regulation of life would appeal to someone who has suffered from mental problems, as Sinead O’Connor has so publicly.
That makes this a sad story. It is not, as O’Connor, aka Shuhada’ Davitt, “the natural conclusion of any intelligent theologian’s journey”; if that were the case, there would be a steady stream of intelligent theologians converting to Islam, and it has yet to be proven that Sinead O’Connor is either intelligent or a theologian. It is much more obviously the ruthless exploitation of an emotionally unstable woman, and that is a shame...

Lets see her scream her way out of this one
A raving lunatic who hates Christians. She’ll fit right in.
Perhaps she can get circumcised.
This poor MENTALLY ILL woman has, at last, found an INSANE “RELIGION” that fits her. I pity her.
And why does anyone care?
She is too old and too rich to get the full female experience of Islam. No child rape, no male ownership, no genital mutilation, no threats of honor killing.
It is just the thing to do now.
Sad. Don’t know why she’s so lost. I think I remember something about a suicide attempt. Just sad.
How many times has she attempted suicide THIS month?
attention hog
Self-subjugation. It’s fun.
Wait until she finds out that she isn’t allowed to dress up like an Imam.
I heard her shrink told her to take up a hobby as therapy. She tried bowling but the first night another bowler stuck his thumb in her ear and she slid down the alley and made a strike. The guy won the beer frame but she gave up the game.
Tip o’ the hat to the old radio talker Joe Pine. I never got to hear him but read a magazine article (Look or Life, I think) about him.
He told an aggravating listener the above (”why don’t you stick your thumb in your ear and go bowling” and another one to “go gargle with razor blades.”
He was a pioneer in the field years ago.
You can’t see a shaved head under a burka.
I wonder if she if going to get the “full package deal”....
That is why they want them to wear burkas.
Help! No rally thread or did I miss it??
[ Sinead O’Connor converts to Islam ]
GREAT!! She can release an album with Cat Stevens!!
I mean, Yousef Islam.....
What a POS. She has fought and fought for woman’s rights ... specifically abortion. In islam, woman are killed for that. Liberals go from one extreme to another.
