On his blog at the New York Times , Ross Douthat responds to David Goldman’s criticism:
In a peculiar outburst, David Goldman of First Things (a.k.a. the pseudonymous blogger Spengler) accuses me of hoping that “Islam will save us from secularism,” and of “flirting publicly” with the Euro-Islam of Tariq Ramadan. This is roughly the opposite of what I intended in this post, but since I was apparently unclear, allow me to clarify.
