I think Reza Aslan should work for democracy in Islamic world

Dear Dr Pipes, Taking advantages of liberal US society Reza Aslan converted to Christianity. Then taking more advantage of freedoms available in the Christian world, he converted back to Islam. Then as a US citizen he wrote a book entitled 'Why I am a Muslim'. And while doing it he married or partnered with one or two Christian women (luckily not at athe same time). Then he went on the mission to show to the world some very very very fringe sect of Hinduism somehow practices cannibalism.

I think this man is a hypocrite. He is talking advantage of every freedom available in the western world without admitting that those freedoms are severely lacking in Islamic world. I think this man --who knows why he is a Muslim-- must work endlessly to bring the same freedoms to the Islamic societies that he so conveniently enjoys in the West.
