Funny how my use of the word troll is more controversial that the huge volume of anti-Muslim threads by eh.

kanelli

Can't that be interpreted as those who are trying to eliminate others belief in Islam and create mischief in Muslim lands to that end, not those who simply practice another religion and leave Muslims to practice theirs..

It can be interpreted both ways, but sadly it is mostly the more annoying way!...

kanelli

I would oppose any laws that are not secular ones which are suitable for everyone in the population, especially those who may be prejudiced against under religious laws.

kanelli

Thanks for the advice melika, but I call it as I see it. eh is an Islamophobe troll. Funny how my use of the word troll is more controversial that the huge volume of anti-Muslim threads by eh. Lets not focus on event horizon in this thread. I suggest if you desire to discuss event horizons post beh...

kanelli

Whew! Thanks for the explanation. Mel, please fix it for me.

kanelli

Well, I do feel the same way about any set of laws dictated by any religion, so it isn't just Islam.

kanelli

It is a stupid spat, and protectionism of a floundering airline (Air Canada). It will be resolved at some point.

kanelli

Holy crap, it got moved? I thought it was hilarious

kanelli

I'm sorry, but Pakistan is one screwed up place. There is a ridiculous death ruling against a Christian woman over a stupid cat fight with some Muslim women, then the governor who supports the woman being released gets gunned down by his bodyguard and there are lawyers throwing flower petals at him ...

kanelli

They aren't the majority, but I'd say 500 is a lot.

kanelli

I am really naive, because I thought for sure that woman would be released eventually. How could she be put to death, surely the legal system would protect her... A governor stands up for her and now look at how things are snowballing! All of this comes from some catty women in a field... who would ...

(Off topic - Zubber and Chocs, have you heard Daft Punk's Tron Legacy soundtrack - brilliant!)

Wow, I guess the Muslim family who has their little boy (named Mohammed) at the Baptist Kindergarten my little guy just started at must feel really bad that their kid is rubbing shoulders with Christian infidels every day...

The way that Islam is currently practiced in many countries, with women being segregated, covered, unable to move freely in society as men can - all puts me off Islam as a possible choice if I was looking for a religion. Some of it may be cultural, some religious - by it is really hard to distinguis...

Ooh, Trekkie! That's the one

Shaf, Islam does look better to you because you are a man.

kanelli

So, can a "good" Muslim woman not cover her hair, wear shorts a t-shirt, wear a bikini to the beach and one-piece to the pool, can she freely mix with men who are not her relatives, can she drink alcohol and eat pork, can she date and marry whoever she wants even if they are non-Muslim, ca...

They may be able to, but these athletes would stick out like a sore thumb. Everyone else wears similar sports gear optimal for movement and with good fabrics etc. It is strange to try to do sport wearing loose clothing and being covered from head to foot. Would be quite hot and the women would have ...

kanelli

Why is it that modesty in dress for Muslim men means shorts and t-shirts and swimming trunks with a naked chest? I saw tons of that in Dubai and elsewhere. Dad was in the pool with kids and Mom sat by the edge in her black tent. Then the couple in Montreal on a hot summer day where Dad and child an ...

How about because marriage does suck in over half of the cases. :lol: Ever since women have become more highly educated and have the ability to secure their own financial independence, they realize that there is no need to stay in a crappy marriage. Many men don't seem to keep up with the expectatio...

Look at the case of Marnie Pearce whose husband Ihab el Laban had an affair with an American woman and the marriage split, then he called the police on Marnie when she had a male friend over and she ended up arrested and jailed for months for adultery. She was dragged to the court where there was a ...

Awesome! Believe me, I'd have stopped at the 5th floor. I've married someone from the 3rd floor. I'm sometimes tempted to get an upgrade!-- Thu Jan 06, 2011 9:06 pm -- ^^ But Kanelli, the divorce rates are the highest in the developing world, where women are supposedly to be equal and they are given...

kanelli

So, in divorce in Islam the husband does not get custody of the children as soon as all children are old enough to be weaned from their mother?

Is the husband not divinely appointed as the head of the household and therefore can prohibit his wife from doing many things?

kanelli

Come on DDS. They are wearing it because they have been taught by males in their society that they are immodest if they don't. I had a coworker who cracked down on his wife's clothing and stopped her from swimming after they were married. He was simply being possessive of his woman.-- Thu Jan 06, 20...
