I do not want to argue about my qualifications, or IQ. I have a Ph.D.
from Cambridge, where Rushdie had taught at one time, and naturally I
read his book quite thoroughly. It is also available on the web. I am
an agnostic, but would not like to hurt people's feelings by calling
their Prophet "Mahound" - the Devil, as Rushdie painstakingly explains
in his superb English in the book. Right here, beside my computer
table, I have four books by Taslima. She has no idea what literature
is. I bought them just to prove the point to my friends. They did not
need any convincing from me.
