    Another Muslim Mullah living in an age of barbarism. I think men of all religions have a fear of women taking over and actually running the world better. I think its this ingrained fear of the birth canal that so traumatizes men. By the way Lizzie where do you think Islam gets all its masochistic beliefs from. The problem with you Christians is that you confuse western secular culture with Christianity. here are some great verses from the New Testament beautifully subjugating women. .

    Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.”
    Colossians 3:18

    “But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of every woman is her husband, and the head of Christ is God…. any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head …For if a woman will not veil herself, then she should cut off her hair …For a man ought not to cover his head; since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. (For man was not made from woman, but woman from man. Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.)” 1 Corinthians 11:2-10

    “Wives, be submissive to your husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also be subject in everything to their husbands.” Ephesians 5:21-24

    “…the women should keep silence in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says. If there is anything they desire to know, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.” 1 Corinthians 14:34-35

    ….and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be sensible, chaste, domestic, kind, and submissive to their husbands, that the word of God may not be discredited…. Bid slaves to be submissive to their masters and to give satisfaction in every respect…” Titus 2:4-9

    “No one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the earth. It is these who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are chaste…” Revelation 14:3-4

    This is just the New testament. The old testaments is far worse. Does anyone need me to summarize the above versus or is it clear enough.

    Again the problem with so called Christians is that they have never really studied their faith. Note the word Domestic in Titus 2:4-9. Islam is simply a more barbaric version of Christianity. In other words the dumb mullah is just repeating what his pedophile prophet copied from the Christians.The sooner we rid ourselves from organized mass stupidity that we call religion the better. All of it that is.

    Quote: “women have no mental strength and the power to control the universe, “which lies in the hands of men.””
    FYI the power to control the universe is also not within the capability of men nor women, it is not in the capability of humanity.
    And I am pretty sure that there are woman walking around that have more mental strength than many other men.
    Maybe next time he should claim the earth is flat or geocentric.

    This is the first statement from a religious leader of islam that makes some actual sense 😉   But as an obv joke! Sadly I don’t think it’d taken as such in the muslim world… ;(

    The enmity of polygamy and misogeny are the Hallmark of Islam. I’m so grateful to be a Christian and not share my husband with three other women. Also we chose to have 2 children in agreement. Muslim wives are treated like breeding donkeys – the more the merrier and all for allah regardless of the woman’s health or lifestyle. Totally disgusting.
    I look forward to the day this vile religion/cult is terminated.

    How about just the extremists?
    And encourage the rest to return to the ancient dharma of their ancestors.

  7. Dr Nishant says:

    This is actually good. Muslims are themselves fed up with Islam. This is evident from the frequent protests by muslim women against misogynist laws of islam. Certain aspect of personal laws are governed by a modified Sharia for muslims only in India. In theory, these laws are superseded by secular judicial review if any muslim challenges a ruling by sharia court in a regular court. But in practice its difficult, especially for the muslim women.

    Just last week there were rallies against talaq rulings of Islam and many muslims want Sharia to be abolished, as they see its vile nature as compared to the freedom equality and liberty non muslims enjoy.

    Coupled with the highly successful Ghar Wapsi campaign by hindu organisations to bring back muslims to hindu fold have got orthodox muslims and clerics nervous..

    Such statements can only weaken islam in india.

    India should throw out all Muslims and send them to Pakistan.
