Ok, I get Lindsay Lohan has demons. She grew up in a broken home and was pushed into show business by her parents. Her past drug and alcohol abuse definitely did not help. So she may have converted to Islam? Or is this just a political statement, intended to keep her in the public eye?
Stacy McCain may have nailed it below:

So do I care if Lindsay Lohan is a Muslim, not really. She's an adult and can do as she likes. But as an example of the growing trend by some youth to reject Western Civilization and culture, it is troubling. Why go there?
Probably just another ploy for attention. That's the most likely scenario. If real, this will not end well because this tragic creature has no boundaries at all and will violate any number of holy no-no's and get her head cut off or be stoned to death or some other hideous state-run demise, which, on reflection, might be less painful overall than wasting away as a result of her various addictions and other self destructive behaviors but will ultimately be outsourcing what's left of her autonomy.
ReplyDeleteI suspect it is attention seeking. If fake, I wonder if she will get the Hebdo treatment in terms of shaming for mocking Islam. If real, I wonder when she falls of the wagon, if she will get the Hebdo treatment for mocking Islam.
ReplyDeleteDeep down, kids want order and some discipline in their lives. A lot of stories came out of the Vietnam War of kids who were given some responsibility, and rules, and, eventually respect, and they thrived on it.
ReplyDeleteThey know they need boundaries, so some flock to this sort of thing.
Good point, but the kids who seek Islam never had boundaries.
DeleteThey were brought up to think Western religion is for idiots and many denominations abet that view.
