So a human encountering the divine, as Muslims believe Muhammad did, to the rationalist, this is a matter not of fact but of wishful fiction, and like all of us, I like to think of myself as rational.
Dakle, čovjekov susret sa božanskim, kao što muslimanu vjeruju  da se Muhamed susreo, za racionalista nije stvar činjenice, nego željene fikcije, a kao i svi mi, ja za sebe  volim misliti da sam racionalna.
