[quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous]Just be ause they say they deserve those thing does not mean that they are receiving them.

Any woman hidden away and imprisoned in a Saudi burka requiring family could say in a survey that women deserve normal basic freedoms.  It doesn't mean anything based on what she is required to do because of Islam and how it is practiced in that society.

The survey is really irrelevant when you look at the actual society.[/quote]

Well following your thought process,  the country is also irrelevant since they don't follow Islamic teachings.  On the Islamic Index which shows how a country's laws, economy and social values are in line with Islamic law Saudi Arabia came at the 91th place in the world,  so not a beacon of Islamic law.  Saudi Arabia is not an Islamic" state,  yes the majority is Muslim but they are not even close to being am Islamic state.[/quote]

Yes, you might say this but country after country, village afte village, iman after iman say that their countries, not just in the middle east but in Africa as well are following the teaches of Islam by killing infidels, imprisoning those who are other religions, restricting women from basic human rights, enforcing child brides, killing a young woman because she dared to fall in love, etc.

If many islamic countries, cities, towns, villages, tribes and clergy say that their way is what Islam teaches and requires, why should other not believe them? Actions speak just as loud as words.

You are picking and choosing just as much as they are picking and choosing.

Don't get me wrong. I admire your efforts. It must be heartbreaking to see a large part of your society to present THAT as the mainstream of your faith.

If your beliefs and practices were actually a large and vocal majority as the face of your religion then you would be looking at a different response to what you are saying. Unfortunately though, your voice is not.  I don't fault you for trying.[/quote]
