Messages of congratulations to Maryam Namazie for winning Secularist
of the Year below or news found on following sites I have just read Nick Cohen's article in the Sunday Observer describing
your award of Secularist of the Year 2005 -- congratulations! شوق لبریز شد از جان من و خندیدم مریم عزیز، اگر چه حس و حال و نوشتار کم جان ما، توان ارج گذاری تلاشهای تو را ندارد، اما شوق حاصل از انتخاب تو این جمله های نارسا و ناموزون را از درون جان ما بیرون کشید. شاید تو خود بر آن باشی که این حاصل مبارزه ای پی گیرانه بوده، حال آنکه اگر اجازه داشته باشیم ما فکرمیکنیم این ناشی از قدرت و توان عشق در اندیشه جاندار و زنده توست و ربط دارد به بوی خوش گل وجود تو که افشانده میشود بر خاک زمین و مشام زندگان را تحریک میکند. و برجسته تر اینکه عطر خوش تو در جایی حس میشود که
صدها و یا هزارها انسان مدعی شناخت سکولاریسم، وجود دارند. این مایه
و اسباب افتخار همنوعان همزبان توست و شیرین مثال شیرنی برای زنان
ایران. ___________________________________________ entexabe shoma be onvane zane sokolare sal ra be shoma tabrik migoyam

It is to me intensely depressing to know that in Iran today women are far more oppressed than under the Shah. When I visited Esfahan in the 1970s, I stayed with a family who would have thought of themselves as 'good enough' Muslims. Only the mother (very much the boss of the family) wore the Chador--and that only loosely (more as a woman of my mother's generation in the UK would wear a hat or headscarf when shopping) when she out. Her adolescent daughter had her head uncovered at all times. The evils of 'liberal' relativism in relation to Human Rights are
evils we all must face. Also I do think that for some males on the
left a false liberalism in relation to say Islam allows them to
smuggle into public discourse anti-feminist sentiments which had
in the past stayed carefully hidden. Perhaps there is a secret thrill
when they support the stoning to death of women for alleged sexual
crimes. What I would call their 'Kingsley Amis moment' Some males
on the left were less than enthusiastic about the rise of feminism
and this might represent their chance to covertly fight back. ___________________________________________ Congratulations for being chosen as the secular of the year. It just shows another little piece of your brilliance and deep humanism. I wish you the best. Comradely greetings, Siyaves Azeri ___________________________________________ Maryam Aziz, Congratulations! You deserve Nobel Prize or the best Wishing you the best, Ezat ___________________________________________ I would like to add my congratulations to Maryam Namazie for winning
the Secularist of the Year award. Everyone who values freedom and
progress must admire and respect the courage of these Iranian comrades... ___________________________________________ Dear Maryam Congratulations on this. I’ll try not to be a liberal apologist. Best wishes Very many congratulations on your accolade: well deserved for courage to say the essentials Manuela Sykes ___________________________________________ Dear Ms. Namazie My name is Hans Schoenburg and I am writing on behalf of Breaking the Ice.
