so what? women are still being oppressed by islamic nations using the muslim religion as a pretext.
female genital mutilation. stonings. denying women education, and the right to use higher degrees. honor killings, forced marriages. imposed servitude. home imprisonment. rape punishment. restricted movement. humiliation, and disfiguration.

ok so i admit these things are happening in islamic countries and people are doing it in the name of the islam, but how can islam stop them with out jepordizing its own identity? We believe what is in the koran is the word of god and changing the word of god is blasphemy.
IF the koran is changed to it will spark chaos in the islamic world. I can't change how people interpret the koran or other islamic texts and i'm not willing to go against god to change his words. Common sense has to play a certain role in all of this and how can you blame islam for people lacking common sense.

if one were to put any value on united nations studies, their claim is that 50 % of women in pakistan are abused, and 99% are mentally or verbally abused
|
i think if everyone on the world was surveyed 99% of the people would say that they have been verbally abused. You know if its so hard to find al-qaeda cells in pakistan, how can you accurately get a demographic of women that are abused in pakistan? Plus if women are so gagged and silenced how can they openly take a survey?
