Do you agree that the Koran says that wives are to obey their husbands and that husbands may beat their wives if they are disobedient?
BTW, how is that the 'wahabbist' interpretation?

1 Corinthians:14:34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.
14:35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
Have you now got an answer? Who are the 'your women' being referred to?
As for the Quilliam report - as I said, I agree with you and them on this and have congratulated you for joining forces with Muslims.

(BTW, did I congratulate you for finally siding with Muslims?)
