No one has enough years in their life to explain to you how the Quran is as much about historical context as it is law. You seem to equate it with a ten commandments type of book. Your thinking is too linear and concrete, too influenced by modern western mindset to understand why there exists subtle differences in Islam between men and women. It is simply because man and woman are inherently different. If this idea of basic gender differences is rejected, then you can not understand or see the ethical wisdom of the Quran.

No one has that much time in their life to educate you in the theory behind Islamic law (meaning, the Quran, not the Sharia).

The differences between men and women in Islam aren't subtle, and the abyss between what's allowed to men and to women is quite deep and wide. [/quote]

+1.  You can chalk it up to "western linear thinking" or "subtlety" if you want. However, it should be clear to you by now that  [u]we disagree with you[/u][u].  We disagree with you that different legal rights in 2014 for women re divorce, testimony and inheritance is simply a matter of subtlety or historical context (your argument that improvements in women's rights over pre-Islamic Arabia, if there were improvements, are not sufficient in 2014). We disagree with you that this is an ethical system that we'd personally want to live under today. Sorry.

We accept that you find this ethical system wise. We don't challenge your desire to live under the laws of your religion.

You, on the other hand, are calling everybody islamophobes for not adopting your positions on the equality of women and the wisdom of your system.

You want to cast judgment on our religion. Fine. But don't post false or misleading facts. This started with an egregious post declaring our prophet a pedophile. Who posted that and where is the apology for that post? Then our local DCUM islamic expert here said there was no equality (or equity) in Islam for women. Who best to determine that but one who lives under the umbrella of that system? Then our fake expert said the jahiliyah period was a farce. World historians and scholars disagree with her. Wheres the apology for that because inherent in that statement was an accusation Muslims lied.

We deserve an apology. [/quote]

You need to apologize for distorting multiple pages of multiple threads, as you did above. I can't even begin to start correcting all the distortions - maybe the other poster has the energy.

You need to apologize for calling people christian-evangelical-crusader-islamophobe gap-toothed redneck mini-skirt-wearting grannies with STDs and porn-addicted children many, which you did many more times than that one time a poster called Mohammed a pedophile.

Most of all, you  need to apologize for calling people "Islamophobes" when they don't come around to agreeing with all of your points of view.[/quote]
