No matter! If Jeff is good enough to keep these threads open, I will publish the links to the published articles. I think when people read the articles, complete with quotes from the historians and scholars, it will be enough. Who would reasonable minded people believe? A disgruntled, islamophobic Pakistani or [b]historians and scholars that teach at Harvard, Oxford, or Cambridge?[/b] At that point, I will ask Jeff to shut this thread down to prevent you from continuing on with your islamophobic campaign. Looking forward...[/quote]

Yes indeedy! I was very impressed by the quotes someone posted here from Harvard's Dr. Leila Ahmed, and I've ordered her book. As you'll recall, Harvard's Dr. Ahmed, a Muslim, contradicted your black-and-white picture of women's rights improving with Islam. Dr. Ahmed takes a much more nuanced view, that in many cases Islam confirmed pre-existing women's rights, and in some instances it took women's rights away. You're darn right, Harvard has some smart people![/quote]
It's a very good book. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

And when you post your own reviews of it here, I'm sure our resident Muslim poster will come back you calling you uneducated, too linear in your thinking and terminally unable to understand anything you read - just because you don't happen to read it the way she did.  Remember, if you don't agree with her, you're uneducated. And quite possibly Pakistani. [/quote]
