Ooh! He IS cute!

I think my first major crush was... wait for it.... ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER!

When I was a little girl I wanted to be a bodybuilder so bad. I was such a scrawny little thing and wanted to be able to beat up my big brother.

Over the years my crushes included:

My school gym teacher
Corey Feldman
Kirk Cameron

and I still love Patrick Swayze (R.I.P.)... I'm sad, I know.

He never really followed a religion. His family didn't seem to care for religion at all (good for them). He went through a phase of investigation and found that Islam was the only religion that made sense. Lol. He used to be into idoltary and witch craft.

My thoughts exactly after I watched this onerous video he did on the hijab:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4jQi0Gjy3M

For all the videos he's made that make Muslims feel good about themselves (and I was one who felt it), Baba Ali is still one of those creeps who obsesses about concealing the female body.

He uses all the old tricks in order:

1.) It's so the woman can be appreciated for her mind and not her body.
So why are there so few female presidents of Islamic councils, women fuqaha etc.? Moreover, how are women and men 'spiritually' equal in Islam if somehow they are temporally unequal?

2.) No one is against nuns covering.
Nuns live in convents and don't work or raise families. He's comparing oranges and apples.

3.) Guys don't look at a woman's kindness if she's half-way undressed.
Hmmm....so the indigenous Chumash of California whose women were topless didn't appreciate their women as anything but sex objects? That would have been terribly awkward as the men were usually completely nude and presumably (if Ali's thesis is sound) in a state of perpetual bonerhood.

He goes on to say that women wear hijab for various reasons and not just religious ones but fails to mention the overwhelming social pressures in some Muslim communities. He clearly hasn't read Samira Belill's book where she writes about the gang rapes she was subjected to because she willingly lost her virginity at 13. Women in some communities cover for "protection" lest they be seen as "cat's meat". How is this free choice? How is it even a choice if God requires you wear it? Then he rabbits on about what constitutes improper hijab. A man telling women how to dress.

So yes, fuck Baba Ali.

I haven't seen too many of his videos so I can't say if he was creepy, but I can't stand religious videos and I wasn't interest in them as a muslim either. I can't stand people telling me how to think or how to behave which is ironic I know since I was a muslim but my belief was grounded in God first and foremost and then Islam. And from there I refused to have anybody telling me what to think. Which made it difficult for me as a Shia because you have to follow a marja. If you're gonna preach do it rationally with solid arguments. And I don't see that in any of the dawa videos. My "fuck him" reply was merely reactionary because I can't stand the stance or material from the onset.

God I'm glad I left that shit.

Why he converted.
1. Quran is perfect
2. The stones he had did not benefit him
3. Jesus died for your sins so everyone is free of sin

Basically what he is doing is trying to disprove all the religions, and boost the image of islam. He goes to a camp, suuuure....

4. He explains how people mix together in islam no matter what culture they have. Yet he forgets that the Arabs have more control in islam.
5. The Quran is simple? Not really it's very bipolar religion and when you argue with muslims they say you are reading the wrong translation.
6. Islam moves us away from desires. Not really, because if you look at heaven in islam its full of desire.

He is pretty good at doing mental gymnastics to show islam is good stuff.
