Specifically with his notion of proof, which has consistently been a layer cake of fallacies, word salad, and bare assertions. His misuse/misunderstanding of the word is nearing Vizzini levels. Which is baffling to me since he presumably has some understanding of what a proof is based on his academic work.
MK had a bit of a crisis of conscience a few years ago when looking at the evidence lead him to disbelief. He was pretty much atheist for two weeks, disappeared for a while and then came back the fanatic he is now.
He used be quite a valuable poster on here, willing to accept doubt and contrasting viewpoints. What he has become is a great loss.
Yeah, I remember the old MK fondly, even before he tried atheism on for size. He was a good example of a non-extremist young Muslim living in the modern world.
The new incarnation? Not so much. I legit wonder sometimes if we're going to see his face plastered on the news because he's had enough of the world's infidels and wants to prove his dedication to his god.
