Global Intifada

I’m mulling over the idea of setting up a group blog where the best minds from all variants of Islam (Traditionalist, Salafist, Islamists, Shia, Perennialist, Modernist, Feminist, or whatever category your feeble mind has constructed to divide Muslims) and the Western tradition duke it out. Think of it as an online version of the Doha Debates, but with unlimited time for debating. As long as you are well versed in some philosophy, political science, law, ethics, any of the Islamic sciences, economics, history, or any other intellectual subject I left out, you are down. Non-Muslims are invited as well.

The only requirement is that you send in a paper or some sort of research assignment that illustrates you have basic writing skills, good argumentation, and the ability to bring forward scarce forms of knowledge into a coherent written format.

If you want in, shoot me an e-mail at jinnzaman@sunnipath.com with a brief e-mail about yourself and why you think you should be considered and a sample writing piece (at least 5 pages)
