BTW, I already said most every religions scriptures have misogynistic sections. Sadly the Muslim religion refuses to modernize their intepretation of these sections the way other religion have. I said that already. You comprehended it I hope?

So why doesn't the Muslim religion modernize? Whats your theory?

Okay Jeanette - You really believe being a misgonyst is an Arabic trait? Holy shit, do you realize how much more offensive that is then just saying "Islam oppresses women" ? You really don't do you.

No no no. *sigh* I don't mean that. Being misogynist is a western trait too. I'm saying that Islam isn't what causes misogyny in the Arab world, the same way that Christianity isn't what caused the misogyny that led to The Burning Times.

So what? Plenty of people are put off by the idea of sex during menstruation. I believe that the OT mentions it as being forbidden.
If ye keep your duty (to Allah), then be not soft of speech lest he in whose heart is a disease aspire to you, but utter customary speech And stay in your houses
I don't understand this passage.
Al - Baqara 2: 228 "Men, your wives are your tillage. Go into your tillage any way you want."
According to dictionary.com, tillage is cultivation of land, or land that has been tilled. How should this be interpreted?
Yes, the beating thing is disconcerting, but I found a Muslim apologetics site explaining it. If I can just dig up the url...
