Good grief. What are you talking about? How can I not know the state of Muslims when I am a Muslim and how can I not know their level of satisfaction with their Islamic state if I lived in a Muslim country at one time? The better question is, how could you ever know? Are you Muslim? Did you live in a Muslim country before? No? Then sit down and certainly do not speak for Islam or Muslims.[/quote]

How can I know that? because I know that no person, not even a DCUM poster imbued, apparently, with supernatural powers, can see into the hearts of billions of Muslims. You claimed the vast majority of Muslims are happy.  There is no way you, or anyone else, is capable of knowing how the vast majority of people feels.

Islam is a remarkable and beautiful religion. It does not condone terrorism. It permits self defense. It does promote equality btw men and women, but not your western definition of equality, but an equality that is measured by the value of rights afforded. Different rights can still have equal value. [/quote]
How much value a right has is a subjective judgment. A particular right can mean the world to me and nothing to you.  If you think the collective weight of rights afforded to men and women in Islam is the same (even though the parts are different), that's your opinion. Someone else may have a different calculus of how much any particular right is worth.  You may feel one right counterbalances another. That's your opinion. It's not a "fact."

What do you derive from trashing Islam? [/quote]
You aren't Islam.  But I do derive some pleasure of pointing out your mistakes, and luckily for me, there's no shortage of material there. [/quote]
