The situation in Egypt is getting worse and worse, it seems as if a civil war is only a few steps away of becoming reality.

At the same time tentions in Tunisia between secular and islamist forces are rising aswell.



It seems as if after the Arab spring, the next hurdle to be overcome in the Arab world is a conflict between secular and islamist forces, not just over the question of rule itslef but over the structures of society.

Well, isn't it about time? Really, they have to work out whether they want to be modern or medieval.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
