Review of Towards a Bland Islam


Merle Kessler makes you laugh at Unitarianism's blandness; at the same time he gently treads on the toes of extremists, in this case, Muslim extremists.

His zingers hit the mark, he's consistently inoffensive, but in the boiling-point climate of world-views at war, both internationally and domestically, he manages to tell the truth without wounding.

In the tradition of Mark Twain, Will Rogers, H.L. Mencken.
