[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous] When a [b]government[/b] of a country condones the treatment of women, it's an issue. Defenders of [b]Islam[/b] never address that truth.[/quote] If a government contents mistreatment of women, that is an issue with that [b]government[/b]. It is not an issue with the religion, particularly if the vast majority of the religion's adherents don't agree with the mistreatment. There are Christians and Jews that practice FGM. Why are you not attacking those religions? [/quote] And when the government and religion are so intricately tied together that they operate as one, it's certainly a problem. It would be a problem in THIS country and that is why the Constitution was written as it was, and why we have a series of checks and balances. It's the equivalent of the extreme religious right running this country - i.e. putting Westboro Baptist in charge.[/quote] To which country are you referring? You appear to be blowing smoke. Which country's government condones FGM and is led by the extreme religious right? [/quote] I am talking about the mistreatment of women - I am addressing the first part of your multiple-part question. When you can find in even a weak Hadith that FGM is appropriate in some fashion, there is a problem to be exploited by those of that religion that choose to exploit it. People asked for proof that it's in a Hadith. I gave them that. Now they say that the Hadith is weak. I simply answered their question. It is not a small portion of Islam that doesn't stand for gay rights or women's rights as compared to other religions. [/quote]
