Honestly, the best advice I can give you is to read the ENTIRE books of the scholars I mentioned in this thread. They address all these topics through historical research and beautifully explain why the Quran mentioned these. It was not to support or encourage at all. However, for the person who refuses to read, but only wishes to google, cut, and paste, you will not understand. Historians and religious scholars have already done a fine job of explaining why the Quran mentioned these. Learn from them rather than spewing false information and pretending you are a historian or islam expert.[/quote]
What makes you think I haven't?

You are just like any other dawah-wallah I met, and I met many, many of them better than you.  If you tell them you disagree, they say it's because you haven't read enough - because clearly, someone who reads enough ABSOLUTELY will see think the way they do. (This is the point at which I begin to giggle pointedly). I've read more history and religious studies on the subject than you can possibly imagine.  So you have a good explanation of why these things are in the Quran. That doesn't mean they are good, make sense, or should be preserved, or mean anything at all.

My dear, and I say this with truth, the reason they say you must not have read enough is because the world's foremost authorities on Islamic topics such as oaths of allegiances, jahiliyah, and the status of women have published, overall, positive opinions of the Islamic belief system. The majority of them interpret history quite differently than you. Who knows better about Islamic history than one who is a historian or religious scholar from the world's best universities? And this is why when they say you have not read enough, its a true statement because you have not.

And I am not going to address your insult as I do sympathize that your posts will be public fodder after the articles are written. You are angry and I understand.[/quote]
