This quote culled from a vacuous Wall Street Journal writeup  [HT: The Jawa Report] of the so-called Summit of Secular Islam […] perfectly captures the ignorance, shallowness and in some cases bald mendacity of the "insider" critiques of Islam being peddled by the ex-Muslim dissidents increasingly championed by the far right as reformers.
