    Is Islam right about women?

    To actually be able to understand this you need to hit Islam's teachings, aka Qur'an.
    https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2005/11/top_ten_rules_in_the_quran_tha.html
    https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/pages/quran/women-worth-less.aspx
    https://freethoughtnation.com/what-does-the-koran-say-about-women/

    “A male shall inherit twice as much as a female.” Quran 4:11,
    “Women shall with justice have rights similar to those exercised against them, although men have a status above women.” Quran 2:228,
    “Women are your fields: go, then, into your fields whence you please.” Quran 2:223,
    “Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and forsake them in beds apart, and beat them.” Quran 4:34,

    Is Islam sexist? Yes it is.

    The testimony of a woman is worth half of that of a man in a Sharia court.
    Women are considered property.
    Women are considered lower status citizens.
    Women must cover up in public.
    If a woman is raped she is to be stoned to death.

    Want your religion of oppression? Look no further than Islam and the countries where it's dominant.

    Here's an interesting enough article for you.

    And don't get me started on LGBT rights..

    I chuckled when I read this poll, why? today in 2019 Muslims are still burying women up to their necks for merely being accused of "adultury" they stone women to death, just the other day. The saudis publically beheaded a woman activist in mecca for fighting for womens rights. They just executed a woman last week.

    To even insinuate that Christians are any where near CLOSE to being like muslims is disgustingly absurd and very very much progressive left.

    The left seems to have a penchant for defending Muslims at all costs and denigrating Christianity and Judaism at all costs. Its laughable, its absurd and its more than telling what their agenda i s.

    Did Paul ever say that women were more likely to burn in Hell than men? Cuz...
    "'The Prophet said, 'I looked at Paradise and found poor people forming the majority of its inhabitants; and I looked at Hell and saw that the majority of its inhabitants were women.' "

    Like the rest of ancient deist religions, Islam is very sexist because that mirrored the social norms of the time when the people who dreamed up the gods were living.

    Source? Probably that happened during the time of "1001 Nights" was written. In 2019, almost all Muslim Nations forbid honor-based crimes.

    According to Judaism, only G-d knows who is going to Heaven. Humans have no statistical data. Less then one person in 1000 will suffer for eternity. Anyone who openly wishes Hell on another person will be judged more harshly him/herself. Most people secretly wish Hell on their opponents -- and many wish it for me.

    Discrimination against men in Western Societies 2019 has no parallels. If you are accused of sexual misconduct, your career and life can be destroyed without a trial. If your wife/gf attacks and injures you, you are likely to be arrested as the Primary Aggressor. Western Media constantly presents men as oppressors. That has no parallel in Muslim World.

    Makes sense, thank you. Not sure what it has to do with my post. My understanding is that the quote is from Mohamed of Islam.
