[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, but I find Muslima's responses very unsatisfactory and un-serious. Her responses, to the extent they aren't completely contentless and flowery, and to the extent they don't contain hateful diatribes against questioners, seemed to be cut-and-pastes from Yusuf. So I feel like I've already had a master class in Yusuf's thinking. This thinking, about "why Islam's rules restricting women's rights are good for you," does not work for me. Yes, I clicked on one of them, and couldn't last long. This does NOT make me a hater of Islam, and it doesn't mean I'm on the fast road to divorce. It simply means that I don't find the so-called explanations in any way convincing or compelling. To the other Muslim poster: you, too have promised to provide responses. You have not done so. You insist that you are not Muslima (although the two of you have very similar rhetorical styles and very similar tastes in Imams). Therefore, I hope you will compensate for Muslima's lack of seriousness, you will drop your own hateful jibes about divorce, and you will actually follow through on your promise to provide thoughtful responses. To anybody reading this: the advice to talk to Muslim imams is ridiculous. You will get the same sanitized, carefully editted version of Islam that Muslima and her alter ego have been giving us for the past 18 pages. Muslima and her alter ego are engaged in dawwah, the Muslim obligation to convert strangers. They understand that nobody gets converted with a straight-up explanation of Islam's rules about women's rights and such. Do your own research. -- Read the Quran: you're eyes will be opened wide. You will read the actual passages that Muslima and her alter ego claim don't exist. -- Search out non-Muslim explanations for things like the treatment of women, prisoners of war and people who leave Islam.[/quote]
