Title: Are You Kidding Me?
Product review: When I borrowed this tape from my local library, I expected a documentary about the Islamic faith by a scholar of religious studies. What I got instead was a syrupy, nauseating, aw-shucks episode of feel goodism. Huston Smith hems and haws about the Sufi experience and its supposed focus on sweetness and light, while the viewer learns next to nothing about the less conciliatory orthodox Islam, or about Islamic history. Pseudo-mystical hoopla, plain and simple.
