Contrary to you, I have a husband, children, and a job. I am more than happy to answer every question, but after my responsibilities are taken care of. I will be back with a few great links later.[/quote]

Yes, please answer the following questions, which posters have been asking you for pages and pages.
(1) Does the Quran, or does the Quran not, require Muslims to kill those who leave the faith? You denied this, but two people have posted quotes from the Quran that suggest you're not being entirely truthful here.
(2) Does the Quran, or does the Quran not, permit Muslim soldiers to rape female captives?
(3) Does the Quran, or does the Quran not, require Muslims to try to convert non-Muslims? Again, you denied this categorically, but someone posted a quote from the Quran that suggests you're not being entirely truthful here.

There are several other things, but that's enough for now.  After so many pages of obfuscation, it feels like, if you answer these questions, it will be a miracle.[/

PS.  I'm off to talk to my husband and my younger child, my older child having gone off to college. I've finished my work for the day. But thanks for the unnecessary condescension![/quote]

Well here's  your miracle, then. Your questions are not unusual. They are often the questions of either people who genuinely misunderstand Islam and want to learn more, or they are the questions of people who make it their mission to eradicate Islam by intentionally vilifying it regardless of what clarification they receive. Since with the previous link I posted of the scholar Hamza Yusuf, you accused me of shopping around to simply find a more palatable version of Islam, I'm posting this link of another scholar that is perhaps more to your liking. This is a link of a highly reputable Islamic scholar, Dr. Jamal Badawi of Halifax, Nova Scotia. It answers questions (1) and (3).

It would be wise for you to watch it in its entirety. Contact him directly if you need further clarification. He is very accessible. [/quote]

They are not interested in an honest and educated discussion about Islam and what Muslims believe, that's why I recused myself from the discussion. Jummah Mubarak to you ;)[/quote]

You were sooooo right! I plan to post these regularly on new threads if only to dispel myths about Islam that these extremist evangelical groups try to spread. I was never into this kind of stuff before but I plan to write a few articles and see if I can get them published in non Muslim magazines. This thread helped me to recognize that Muslims need to do more work to disseminate the truth about their religion. 
Jummuah mubarak to you too!! Great " meeting" you![/quote]
