[quote=Anonymous][b]How was that possible with the islamophobes repeatedly showing misleading hadith and sharia that gave daughters only 50% of the inheritance [/b]

That comes straight from the Koran, not hadith or not-directly-from-the-Koran sharia.  Noting that fact surely cannot mark one as an Islamaphobe and it is not misleading to mention a crystal clear section of the Koran.

You stick to the Koran, fine.  Why is it just in today's world that daughters get have of what sons get?  Or that a woman with children gets one-eighth of the inheritance? (I recognize this was very liberal in 7th century Arabia.)

You will probably say it's because sons are supposed to support mothers and sisters.  But maybe if the wife inherited everything, she could support both her sons and daughters, as well as herself without recourse to male relatives.

I am pretty sure women getting one-eighth (one quarter if childless) is very much related to the fact that a man can have four wives.  So if he had four wives and all were childless, the wives would inherit everything.  But now you have to justify how this one-eight/one-quarter distribution is applicable in countries without polygamy if the Koran as literally written is for all times and all places.

That you take the Koran literally is evident from your endless dissection of the verse on creation and attempts to show they were divinely inspired because they imply knowledge of the stages of the embryo not known at the time.  Please give this up--you are convincing no one except maybe the obscure Dr. Moore.[/quote]
