    The entirely Holy Bible, its prophets and holy mans contain no one sexist negative remark.
    In difference Quran and Hadith are full of description sexual adventures one 'prophet', his 31 wives including six years old one.

    Ok, now I am going post two things that are incredibly GAY:
    1. Hatriot
    2. He must not be a Muslim or he is coming out of Islam.

    I told you that I had two incredibly GAY things to post.

    Frankly.............. from what I have discovered over twenty seven years of researching near death experience accounts...... I think you are very close to an extremely high level truth with this comment!

    I read an intriguing assessment of Islam this morning on a friend's wall:

    Lots of misinformation.. Muslim women receive the bride price from their future husbands and its their money forever. Further, Muslim women write the marriage contract. They can write in NO other wives if they choose.

    Let's just play a game to see if this question really needs to be asked.

    The game is called "spot the Islamic woman."

    All you have to do simply guess at which one is Islamic.

    Is it the ladies in blue the lady in Black or the Lady in White.

    I'm willing to bet it's an easy question to answer.

    But in a high number of cases if it is OK for Muslims to lie
    to non believers in order to advance Jihad..... then I guess
    it is not much of a big deal for the majority of Islamic men to lie to a woman is it?

    This issue has been discussed numerous times on this forum.

    Once again, it is the Hindu religion, not Islam, that is sexist:

    Sexist genocide has been repeatedly discussed and documented. But because forum right wingers are so full of hate and prejudice, they persist in pointing to the wrong religion.

    Interesting..... so you do not think that a Saudi
    prince might want his Christian wife #2 to abort her children
    due to the possibility of her raising those kids as Christians?


    "I was wife #2 in the King's Harem"

    Actually Muhammed had a dozen wives. He made a rule that the men could have 4 wives, but when he wanted something that was forbidden to others, he just went off and talked to ArRamon, (Allah), and was granted permission to have as many as he wanted.
    This number does not count concubines and slave women.

    Perhaps sexist in that they acknowlege the two sexes have differences.

    Don't know where you got that info, but it is wrong.
    The women are sold by the father. They have nothing to say about the marriage.
    Many times a woman is raped by the suiter, and must be married to him.
    There may be places where the rules are lax, but they are few and far between.

    Is Islam a sexist religion?

    This simply cannot be a serious question.

    "Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.
    And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church." 1 Corinthians 14:34-35

    "I do not permit a woman to teach or have authority over a man; she must be quiet." 1 Timothy 2:12

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

    "And seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and hast a desire unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife.
    Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house, and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails.
    And she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
    And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will..." Deuteronomy 21:11-14

    "And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
    If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her." Exodus 21:7-8

    "Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee." Genesis 3:16:

    "Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes." Genesis 25:1

    "Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean...
    But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.
    If a woman gives birth to a male child, she is unclean for seven days. If she has a female child, she is unclean for 14-66 days." Leviticus 12:2 and Leviticus 12:5

    You were saying?

    Good job of digging these all up.....
    Now here is some information that makes some sense out of all this.......
    that I believe was given to the original twelve disciples..... but the Roman Catholic
    monks edited this type of writings out of the Christian canon by the time of Pope Jerome!

    If we think that we can get ahead of the G-d of Abraham..... we are kidding ourselves.

    This principle of Karma was verified by another Christian near death experiencer:

    Once genuine spirituality shows each religion how they share some important common ground.....
    and also got twisted by religious officials and bureaucrats.....
    the stage will be set for this world to be rapidly improved.

    In the Old Testament, Solomon had several thousand more than he did.

    I think he had about 1000, however there is no record of him murdering the previous husband to get them.
    It seems he was a pretty decent king from all records, just real horny.
