Book excerpt: Khalil Amani has done it again! With his third installment of the Ghetto Religiosity series, Amani brings it home like fish & grits! He has done to religion what your mama does in the kitchen-Put his foot all up in it! Of great interest is Amani's critique and analysis of his former teacher, Yahweh Ben Yahweh. Amani cogently deconstructs Yahweh theology with the precision of a neurosurgeon, giving us a detailed account of Yahweh teachings, which have been exposed as plagiarisms from the Nation of Islam among others. Perhaps most controversial is Amani's scathing and blistering attack on 9/11 and our religious and secular perceptions/ideas about why this tragedy occurred. Amani takes exception to and rejects the pseudo-religiosity of 9/11. In his usual hard-core fashion, Amani puts God's business on front-street and asks the critical questions about God's whereabouts in our time of need. This book is not for the faint of heart!
