How many Muslim women are reading this atheist forum, that they have the benefit of your "education" and "example"?

I get hell for it from some theists who somehow know how to find all the places that have banned me. The list is higher than 12. It surprised me a bit as it is the short list.
How many places have banned you?
None. I've joined a couple of religious websites, but I don't preach to people.

I agree as it pertains to the freedom we were talking about.
I disagree in the sense that most people talk of rights and beliefs. Too many beliefs do damage and a moral man will not ignore them.
I don't "ignore" them. You are once again asserting that because I don't do what you prescribe, I'm doing nothing. I wish you'd stop that. Not only is it sloppy thinking, it's also untrue.

Firstly, we were talking about women in Islam being treated as second-class citizens, not children being murdered. Keep your goalpost steady and your slope sticky, please.
For the record, concerning the anti-gay legislation, I posted my writing in a much more effective place than an online forum: I wrote my then-Senator and told her that I wanted to see action taken against that California-based church that was instigating it.
As for "witch-killing", I somehow doubt that those folk are gathering at online forums and taking aboard views different from their own. What are you doing in the way of actions to stop that?
Letting so called religious people know what is going on and relying on the butterfly effect to do the rest.
Many little sticks can make a large flame.
