Mr. Green is often cited as the voice of Islamic reasoning and speaking for the liberal moderate wing of Islam. “..the hell burnt their skins. After that they will not feel the pain. So Allah is going to recreate the skin again, so they keep on tasting the punishment.” and then “Allah knows you better than you know your self.. He is warning you in His book… if you don’t believe in Him, see what waits for you.”

If Allah knows me better than I know myself, then He will know exactly why I doubted His existence. He’ll know that I took the truth very seriously, and He’ll know exactly why I couldn’t get myself to believe in Him. Even after that if He thinks I deserve to be burnt over and over and over again, then He is cruel, and unworthy of love, respect, and worship.

Atheism doesn’t depend on an authority figure. Religious people love authority! That’s why you always get them quoting from the Quran and Hadiths because no matter what is being said, what matters to them is who said it. Even if the most silliest thing is propagated by Muhammad, then it must be true because Muhammad said it. Atheism doesn’t work like that. I couldn’t care less what Harris/Hitchens/Dawkins say. What matters is how their ideas and arguments stand on their own merits.
