Where are the feminists?

Reader comment on item: Bibliography – My Writings on Moderate Muslims
in response to reader comment: The Aisha Prophecy

Submitted by Rada (United States), Sep 10, 2007 at 09:13

Muslim or not, they should be touting this prophecy. Whether Aisha's really coming or not, the message of the prophecy is clear. Women everywhere need to stand up against an Islam that's been twisted into a "Hislam."

Time Magazine ran an article about female suicide bombers who, it says, tend to be disfigured, or otherwise so unattractive that they're unlikely to ever find a husband. So what are they promised? They're promised that one second after pressing the button they'll wake up in paradise as "the fairest of the 72 vigins." And a few of them are buying it!!!

Others, however, have said, "Wait a minute. You're telling me that my reward, for all eternity, will be to service the next skinny, pimply, illiterate little squirt who blows himself and kills innocent people?" This, as much as anything else, speaks volumes about the contempt for women that we see in much of the muslim world..
