… is generating more than the usual reaction. A small sample of the comments that have flooded my inbox:

* “… all I can say is Fuck You… I’m ashamed that you’re a Canadian.”- Stephen MacEwen

* “… of all the people in this world I think you are my greatest hero.” - Gil Johnson

* “You truly are a sick embarrassment to women, lesbians, Muslims and jew-tools.” - Anonymous

* “We need more people like Irshad Manji, who question the unfamiliar, break taboos, and discuss illogical interpretations in any religion.” - Mohamad Jukhadar

* “Thank you for continuing to be a shining light for all intelligent women out there, and for all conscious people who choose not to be sheep.” - S. Natasha Young

* “Are you inured to the murdering/suffering taking place? How does your writing show courage?” - Regina Bueno Renke

* “If more people could be as courageous and honest as you are, we might be closer to peace.” - Monsignor Peter Schonenbach

* “Thank you for asking the right questions.” - Mary Jo Rotheker

Here’s the column they’re debating.
