Beating women in Islam

[Angrboda]

Rough spot to be in.  Smart enough to know better, still silly enough to imagine otherwise. 

That last bit, above, describes Big Mo as aptly as any current middle eastern chieftan.  Whenever you (and the people of the region, as a whole) realize that the religion is the disease, rather than the cure, you might make progress.  The prospect of that isn't really all that rosy for the current 1st world powers..so plenty of money is spent keeping you sniffing each others asses five times a day - mainly because a bunch of fundies and apologists are far more useful to us.  The West, the great satan..drawing from our own history with an understanding of the compulsive nature of monotheistic faith, knows what drives the middle eastern world and because of this, knows how to manipulate it, and you.  We intentionally fund israel because we know that it enrages you, for example..and that you will speak out and act out on that - granting us pretext for greater funding of isreal..which is just a forward airbase in the middle east, to us.

Harsh, I know.....lol.

You see, Islam always has believers because  all the systems in the world has something missing; they all fail to contain the individual fully, they fail to satisfy the needs of a person fully. The terrible acts of Sunni/Shiite figureheads are not to be blamed on the source book.

Islam provides what human systems can't provide.

Ask around the whole world, and you'll find a lot of people saying that Islam's concepts cured them actually from so many diseases like racism and blind nationalism.

The best times in our time as Middle Eastern people were the times Islam led the world.

Israel's creation is as problematic to me as the Spanish Conquests of the Americas. It's painful to see what happened to the Native Americans happen allover again but to Arabs this time.

You realize that by supporting any Islam, even the mythical one you seem to want to imagine has or could exist, you are giving aid and comfort to the enemy who is making your life hell, don't you?
