RE: Ayaan Hirsi Ali now claims to be Christian.
She was also supportive of Trump, so it's not a surprise that she makes stupid life decisions.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

The last time I made cauliflower, I added a little too much coconut aminos to the marinade. That matters more to me that Ali’s alleged conversion.

One year at Skepticon (#something) in Springfield Illinois me and boss lady gave PZed a ride to a local creationist "museum". I pointed out the plates on our PT Cruiser, "AYAAN".

Awesome, what I'm hearing is that she's still a hostage to some abrahamic whatever. Sucks, but I accept that it's probably true.

I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Ayaan Hirsi Ali is famous for escaping Islam and becoming a member of Parliament in Denmark. while making a documentary on the treatment of women in Islam the filmmaker was stabbed to death with a note saying "your next". She later moved to America and wrote a book Infidel, as an autobiography to her leaving Islam called "Infidel". It is a really good book, which is why she is a huge disappointment to me now. But this happens in life all the time so it at the same time is also not surprising.

Not probably, you can go to her Twitter/x page and see her link to her article. It is true according to her.

I guess I phrased that poorly. I'm certain that it's true. I think it's a travesty, but I don't doubt that in the end the only way a person like her can ever conceive of rebelling against that upbringing is by joining some other stupid fucking cult with antithetical claims.
