| superchunk said: This is why the Islamic world needs its Renaissance from the Dark Ages its been in for the last 100 years. It needs this continued uprising that started in Tunisia and has engulfed Egypt. It needs to continue to overthrow the powers that were placed in control by European/US leaders after the world wars. Once this dictatorial yolk has been removed, the populace can then begin the journey of recovering their Islam from extremists and return it to what it used to be. To all those that think this is Islam and argue with me about the Qur'ans Mekkah vs Medina versus STFU. You don't know what your talking about or the history of the region. Extremism and intolerance has only been the controlling factor of the Islamic world for a little over 100 years. For centuries before that women held power and ownership of businesses along with equal rights at home and away as well as full education. Other religions were treated equally and allowed to practice openly as well as being held accountable to their own sets of laws and tried by their own judges/priests/etc. I pray that US and other western powers push strongly for Egypt to be overthrown and continue this path to a free and open Middle East. Taliban needs to be wiped out. They are the worst of the worst. |
Best comment here. I totally agree. Islam isn't a bad religion (I've been reading about it), only the extremists are bad.
