  RE:The Problem with the dresscode of women in Afghanistan
by JGN on Jul 10, 2008 12:57 PM   Permalink
Mr.balaord, forget about dress code. Woemn are treated just as s*ex objects in Islam. There are enough Quranic verses to prove this. Do you want me to quote them? The muslim women are not allowed to go out without the Company of a male relative in Saudi and other Islamic countries. Is this practical in the 21st century?

Do you think that the male members just pounce on the females who do not wear the Burqua in all other societies around the world?

Some time back I had hear Ms. Rakshanda Khan telling on a reality show that even wearing Burqua is of no use as people just stare at the burqua clad woman and imagine what lies inside!!!!!!

Dear JGN,
There are enough Quranic verses that say men and women are equal. Islam cannot survive for 50 years if women in Islam decide that. Infact women are more religious than men. My remember my mother used to be more strict about religon than my father. My sister and wife offer more prayers than I do. Women are the base of our society the day we lose their loyalty we will lose our religion.
So stop spreading this nonsense. You are not going win anything out of hate mongering.

The Quran is a book containing contradictory verses. While the good muslims quote the good verses, the Mullahs quote the hate-filled verses and brainwash the impressionable youth to "fight in the cause of Allah"!!

The Paradise stocked with abundant supply of "wine, women, water, fruits, etc" existed only in the fertile imaginatin of some sur-realistic visionary. The poor fellow could imagine about things available in plenty on planet earth even in the "Paradise" !!!!!!!!!

>>>>>>>>We muslims belive earth,heavens and averything in between is a creation of GOD............I am not under any compulsion to believe in such absurdities. Then why the GOD had not created "one religion" for all to follow? Why there are over 2000 religions the world over and hundreds of sects in some of them?

When there are more inqualities on planet earth (geographically, economically, physically,etc) what makes you beleive that the GOD is going to treat every one "equally" in the life here-after?

Braveheart, pl search for The Skeptics Annotated Bible for category-wise verses like Absurdities, Contradictions, Hatred, Good-stuff, etc from The Bible, The Quran and The Book of Mormon. Pl read them and understand for yourself. The Qruan in inheently violent.

Braveheart, I have read 2 versions (English translations) of The Quran and know for sure what its contents are. Anyone can get a copy of The Quran free from Project Gutenberg. Pl read in a language you fully understand rather than depneding on somebody else's interpretation.

>>>>>>>peer reviewed??????? I had given you an equally stunning example of Barbara Waltz and Uri Geller!

Nobody is aksing for roaming without dress, but any dess that is modest is enough. It need not be a back veil.

Braveheart, I really do not care for such things. My reply was to Mr. Balaord who was trying to justify the same.

One of the enduring memory of childhood is of little muslim girls going to school wearing Green skirt, cream coloured shirts & wearing Green coloured head-scarves. Though I find it difficult to appreciate the black-veil (probably because it was an alien thing in my childhood), I do not differentiate between muslim women wearing head-scarves and those wearing other types of dresses.

They can't appreciate liberty of women as their minds are already set for curbing women's right as right. They always view it in their perspective & try to find fault in Draupadi's case.

>>>>>>>>>>UNLIKE DROPDI IN MAHABARATA..........Mahabharati is an Epic (story) and the incidents mentioned in the same are the imaginations of the author. No hindu woman is clamouring for having "five husbands like Panchali" while the muslims the world over want us to believe that The Quran is a divine revealation to be followed by every one till eternity.

Don't try to justify historical truth with what is written in some stories. Muhammed was a historical person who lived nearer to our time.

I don't have to follow any one if his teachings do not find logical to me. I am no way inferior to a person who lived hundreds of years back nor do I have to believe in some book wirtten thousands of years back. There has been tremendous improvements in science and tehnology ever since.

i fail to understand y we all are debating about what the religious books(quran,bible,gita) preach...
they are old enough to be tampered with...if you all believe that these books still contain the original content..you all must be dreaming...all the religious books are tampered with to propogate a specific cultural ideologies...without any relation to its original meaning.

The million dollar question is how to make the religious fanatics understand this simple truth.
