    Rape Ingrained in Islamic Culture?

    So you hear a few problems in the muslim world. That does not mean that the whole islamic world is wrong, you are totalising, as well as generalising ("you DONT do follow ALL rules"... ps how do you know that? if ONE muslim strays, it does not mean the hearts of others are impure). Furthermore...

    Rape Ingrained in Islamic Culture?

    No one here ever said that the way the religion is practised is perfect. Rather, we are saying that God's words are absolute and perfect. We understand that there are problems (eg condemning the wrong actions) but its difficult to change a person purely by telling them "dont do this"...

    Rape Ingrained in Islamic Culture?

    Why dont you qoute me instead of making up your own words? Besides, it's not an attack, it's a criticism. And i never said that's the MOST derogatory word against females....that's reserved for 'patriachy'. If you don't really care...why do you keep bringing it up? If you had read the WHOLE...

    Rape Ingrained in Islamic Culture?

    " On her rags " is derogatory. It is used (and it was used by yourself) for satirical purposes. I do not want to label you anything, im sure people will make their own assumptions of you by your posts neway. Religious zealot? puh lease. In case you haven't seen my name, i am a female so...

    Islam Discussion

    I believe they were referring to the persecution of muslims in china wikipedia: "During the Cultural Revolution, many Muslims, along with other Chinese, were persecuted. Muslim imams were paraded around with paint splashed on their persons, and 1,600 Muslims were massacred by the People's...

    Muslim headscarves

    I'm muslim but i dont wear the headscarf. I think in it's highly appropriate in its context in countries where women are prone to be attacked etc, that's what it is for, as well as other reasons that i have explained a zillion times in this forum. It's the choice of the female that matters (like...

    Christmas

    I'm Muslim, and personally, i like Christmas for its messages of peace, family and warmth. I love all the christmas lightings ( around where i live, it looks fab!). I grew up watching christmas movies and cartoons around christmas time and i more than enjoyed them. Because we believe in Jesus...

    Rape Ingrained in Islamic Culture?

    That's disgusting. You speak for the rights of women and yet you clearly show how vulgar you are with your words as regards to the menstrual cycle (rags? ). Just because you spoke to one muslim in this forum who was too tired of your bickering to continue, doesnt mean you're king eithier...

    Rape Ingrained in Islamic Culture?

    It's strange that you fail to recognise the ETHNICITY of the MAJORITY of sexual assaulters in Australian gaols. Truth be told, there are few physcotic ethnic middle easterns in those goals, and there mentally unstable rapists (etc, of various ethinicities) in every nation. What im trying to...

    Muslim People in Australia

    Excuse that example, but i try to be very simplistic in my posts, because nobody will read them if it is pure theory, or long. So in trying to be simplisitic in my posts, i understand that some people wont get it. Perhaps you are TOO enlightened to the point of overdrawn pride? Moreover LOL I...

    Muslim People in Australia

    I know that this was meant to be in jest, but what the hell. Here i go again. My point from another thread was that people who believe themselves alien to a culture will experience it according to their own methods of understanding. For example, when you go outback you will see native...

    Muslim People in Australia

    I'm sure that had the Quran been written in moonlight's intellectual tradition (enlightenment rationalism), in scientific bits and codes he, along with billions of people would not have understood a word of it today, since scientific discovery (and hence its reasoning) is in constant flux. The...

    The Burkha, what do you think? Taliban or Qur'an?

    I'll make this clear. Repeat: Men have to wear modest clothing, too, same as women. Women have power in their body-ie the ability to give birth, the controlling of the male's mentality. Women are not objects of anyone's gaze, strangers are nobody to judge them and say "oh, she's not as...
