Frank Romano
author of a new book, "Storm Over Morocco"; it is about
a spiritual voyage that I took to Morocco in 1978 from
Paris where I was studying philosophy. I was searching
for supreme truth and studying Eastern religions as the
path that would lead me there. While I was in Morocco I
was invited to study Islam in a mosque where I resided
for several weeks.
It turned out that it was a militant Moslem group and
that I was not free to leave. During my stay, I had
different confrontations with the Imams and Islamic
gurus, especially over the concept and treatment of
women in orthodox Islamic communities in which I lived.
My questions as to the treatment of women served as a
catalyst for one of the Islamic gurus to accuse me of
being a Zionist spy destined to sabotage the "back to
Islam" movement. I was eventually acquitted of sabotage
by an internal inquisitorial tribunal, but I remained a
prisoner behind the tall walls of the mosque on the
outskirts of Casablanca. The leaders of the mosque tried
to convert me which I resisted thanks to my ecumenical
approach to religions, such that I do not believe any
one religion holds all the pieces of the puzzle.
I finally had to escape the mosque and friends hid me in
Casablanca until I could safely leave the country.
I was able to withstand conversion due to my profound
knowledge of different religions and the desire to focus
on the common denominators among them.
The book is about my spiritual path and about
fundamentalist religions and brainwashing techniques. It
also discusses the status of women in
orthodox/fundamentalist Islamic communities. It,
however, is not at all a criticism of Islam as I learned
a great deal from that religion.
After a successful conference and several successful
discussions/signing events in the US concerning my book,
I have returned to Paris.
A tenured professor at the University of Paris and
member of the California and Marseille Bars, I organize
and participate in interfaith events in Israel and
Palestine |
