But Ayaan Hirsi Ali's relationship to the Almighty—and religion—has once again shifted in fantastical fashion, with the activist penning a head-turning op-ed titled, "Why I Am Now a Christian."

In the piece, she said she's turned to faith because she found "life without any spiritual solace unendurable."

Ali opened the op-ed by recalling a 1927 lecture by Bertrand Russell titled "Why I am Not a Christian." She said she discovered this lecture in 2002, just one year after she condemned the 9/11 terror attacks.

"When I read Russell's lecture, I found my cognitive dissonance easing," she wrote. "It was a relief to adopt an attitude of scepticism towards religious doctrine, discard my faith in God, and declare that no such entity existed."

Ali continued, "Best of all, I could reject the existence ofHelland the danger of everlasting punishment."

She said understanding why she came to embrace atheism requires comprehending the "kind of Muslim" she was, with Ali explaining the Muslim Brotherhood came into her Nairobi, Kenya, community when she was a child.

"[The Muslim Brotherhood] articulated a direction: the straight path. A purpose: to work towards admission into Allah's paradise after death," Ali wrote. "A method: the prophet's instruction manual of do's and don'ts—the halal and the haram. As a detailed supplement to the Qur'an, the hadeeth spelled out how to put into practice the difference between right and wrong, good and evil, God and the devil."

All this led her to believe she must avoid reading novels, seeing movies, dancing, and other novelties. In the end, she was swept up into this ideology, believing she couldn't befriend unbelievers and, in particular, was taught to develop a "hatred" for Jewish people...
