The United States of America is supposed to be one of the most advanced countries of the world. An F.B.I report in the year 1990 says that 1,02,555 cases of rape were reported. It further says that only 16% of the cases of rapes are reported. Thus, in order to know the actual number of rapes that took place in 1990, the reported figure should be multiplied by 6.25. We get a total of 6,40,968 rape cases that took place in the year 1990. If the total is divided by 365 the number of days in a year, we get an average of 1,756 rape incidents everyday
How would anyone know only 16% of rape cases are reported if they aren't reported?
I am a man, I am advanced.....I am the first man to borrow Stone's leather pants!
The rest are the biggest bunch of arrogant, self-serving, pompus, self-righteous crap I have ever seen.
The "Glorious Quran" ....LMAO!
This one in particular bothers me:
Part of the answer if you follow the link is that if one of the women forgets the circumstances, 'the other can remind her'. Here's the problem with that. If you are a witness, you are reporting what YOU remember that you saw. If you forget, you forget. Having other people 'remind' you after you've forgotten means you would now be reporting HEARSAY, not circumstances that you recall as a witness.

"Naturally as soon as Islamic Sharee'ah is implemented positive results will be inevitable. If Islamic Sharee'ah is implemented in any part of the world, whether it is America or Europe, society will breathe easier."
Hmm, I'm not sure the writer is aware of what sharee'ah did to the countries it is involved in.
Good post. This part got me as well. Not just an enormous pile of bs, but an enormous, steaming pile of bs. If one was born and raised in a country that practiced Sharee'ah (or Sharia), I suppose I understand. But anyone who has tasted freedom and then elects to subject themself to Sharia needs to have their head examined. "Society will breathe easier", LOL. Allahu Akbar.
how does a man marry a six year old rape her at nine years old, and then call him self a prophet?
sound more like a pervert
Was this purpose of this guy's writing to quash stereotypes and negative attitudes? If so, he did a piss-poor job.
They have that wrong or it is lost in translation. Women are told to accompany each other during legal matters as a form of support for each other. The thought is that if a women goes by herself to resolve a legal matter, men, being men who have the most power in all societies, either consciously or sub-consciously may take advantage of the situation. When she is with another woman, she is supported and not as vulnerable if she is alone, or not seen as in a position of vulnerability. Also, if she needs help in anyway, she has the choice of turning to another woman who may know more than she does in the matter, point being she does not turn to another man(in the position of power) in the proceedings, she has someone she can rely on.
It doesn't have to be that way you know. If society agrees that everyone is equal under the law, then men 'being men' don't necessarily have most of the power. In the U.S. I can go myself - the law gives ME as a human being certain rights, no different than a man, and I don't need another woman per se for support. If there were legal matters I needed help with, I'd consult a trained professional lawyer, not just bring along another female. In any case, I stand by my original statement. I've the seen the phrase many times, the phrase about if one of the women forgets, the other can remind her. Its not in only one place, and actually the link refers to a quote straight from the Quran about this.
When I have a little more time, I may address some of the other points.
I just read this to my daughter and she had a response to this
She said that if the men were really good muslims, this wouldn't occur.

And she hit the nail on the head.
Whether we like it or not, whether we say its equal, whether we have laws that make sure everything is equal, it is not. Men have the most power in all societies. Laws can't regulate the thoughts of men, some men may act unfair knowingly or unknowingly. Laws can help the regualte their actions and this to prevent unfair action. This quote was brought down at a time when men represented themselves for the most part, there were no lawyers, it is recommended that women unite as they have in America and guarantee their rights that they are entitled to. This is to protect them from those who are not "really good" (if everyone was really good, we wouldn't need laws) and no one is perfect all the time, there has to be rules to make sure that all adhere to and everyone gets a fair shake. edit: Also, The Qu'ran was brought down at a time to a people who were not treating women and minorities fairly.The quote has been interpererated by many different scholars and I have given you the interpretation that has been agreed on by many scholars.
hhahahhaahahhaahahhaahahhaah
oh that's funny
I would think they compare reported cases with survey results where they have asked women if they have ever been raped or been close, and then measure the discrepancy to the reported cases. I think that's an available statistic.

Correct-a-mundo, Dan.
Yeah, after reading the rest I pretty much agree too. There's no point in arguing most of it, and some of it is just based on the opinion of the writer - like the pig being 'shameless'. It is an ANIMAL.

How do you know how good your wife looks if you can't see her while she is growing up?
How can your religion (skewed) say that god will shower you with virgins if you kill yourself for him? I mean isn't that going against the grain?
Can I go to Mecca and hang out too? Strictly for vacation/tourist purposes only?
If you accept their is an after life. Is it on par with other relgions after life? And if it is will you all be fighting in the after life? Or will some revelation come to all religions when they are made to suffer with each other for eternity that you will have to all suck it up and get along? And would you look back in hindsight and say "wow, I can't believe I killed that person and now have to spend the rest of time with them"?
Exactly how will one utilize 72 virgins?
You mean to tell me in the after-life I would be bringing my penis with me?
If so, will it be a Carry-on or do I have to submit it as Luggage?
If I was a muslim, I would hope and pray that in the afterlife, I would have more stamina then I do now, otherwise 72 would just be a waste.
A questions tho, what is in it for muslim women when they die? I would assume that virgin women get the "pleasure" of serving some dude with 71 of her friends, but what do non-virgins get? 72 virgin men?

I can't help it. I bust a gut laughing over this.
The absurdity that the best a "god" could do, would be to appease and satisfy my earthly and mortal lust and sexual desires; gets me everytime...lol:D
The notion of a "god" who caters to our mortal desires and lust, seems awfully contrived by ..........a male human being. Does it not?
So if the person receiving the virgins is a virgin themselves. I wonder how many eons in eternity are spent just fumbling around, trying to figure out what to do.
I hope bras in heaven simply fly off on their own. Them bras are like trying to crack a high security safe...lol.
Buttons, hooks, latches.....cups...straps.....access codes....whew....I'm sweating just thinking about it:D
What a revelation. Thanks. I'm now convinced. How does 'De Lacy O'Leary' know this? How does the author quoting 'De Lacy O'Leary' KNOW he was right when he wrote this?
You know, I support eleviating prejudice against Muslims. I do. And I support banishing stereotypes in any religion. But really, Muslims have GOT to stop this. I mean come on. Using tripe posts like this to defend their faith is NOT HELPING them. I have had Muslim friends, but none of them made any effort to defend their faith beyond one word answers. Worse than the Christian fundamentalists.
And don't start me on the international response to the Pope's comments. Come off it. A religion of peace? Well start demonstrating it then. Go on. Yes, you, I said demonstrate peace. Peace, remember? People insult Jesus daily all around me and you don't see me burning mosques or walking protest marches about it. Water off a duck's back. Love others. That's peace.

JaneNY I just have to say that I understand your husband is Muslim and I don't want to play amateur psychiatrist, but how you feel about Islam goes beyond its teachings. I think you just have some sort of fear guiding you, forcing you to be closed. I think you loved someone enough to marry him and part of him is his religion. I think you just fear, for whatever reason I truly have no idea, going beyond that and really understanding and in the least not ridiculing your husband's faith.
The thread ended up this way because the 'answers' to the questions are not well written, and some of the responses stem from the writer's assumptions and personal opinions, with no documentation.
You don't want to play amateur psychiatrist? Fine, then don't. You know nothing about me or my life.

I totally disagree, I think that the responses have absolutely nothing to do with the writer, they seem to be deep seated and full of hate and that just doesn't come from one post from a misguided writer.
I have no idea why you are offended, I was sharing something I learned from other women in your situation. I think you have your mind made up long before you read my posts, no matter what I write, I know you will take the wrong way, so I will no longer address you. Don't get too happy.
