Probably depends on who you know and where they are from.In ancient Western Europe women were property, Jews were frequently expelled, subject to pogroms and restrictions and periodically killed.Let’s rephrase that. Can you name any country in history where religion is government that embraces our social values? The problem isn’t Islam it is religion in government. It always sucks for women and religious minorities throughout history.That doesn’t change generic broadbrushed hate. FYI...all conservative religious sects treat women as second class citizens.
Not like Islam does. As Sam Harris stated "Islam is the motherhood of bad ideas".
There are 53 Mostly Muslim countries (60% or more) can you name one on par with say the UK or the US in terms of social policies?
In Islam women are treated as property. That was not the case in ancient Western Europe where women were queens. I agree that you need separation of church and state but Islam on top of treating women like garbage, hate dogs, kill gays, hate Jews and Christians, kill you for drawing pics of Mo. It is a primitive and dangerous ideology. Again can you name one mostly Muslim country that has social values that are expected in today's modern westernized world? There is not ONE. There are 53 of them. Coincidence?
The one Jewish nation is in fact tolerant, a democracy, a military power and economically strong.
You have dodged my question. I answered yours. In a conversation it is polite to answer each other's questions. Islam again is very tough not to judge very negatively. My Muslim friends here in the US. Great guys. Treat their women as 2nd class. Both had arranged marriages.
