No one is dissing Islam

Let's get to the point: No one is dissing Islam, ok? Islam is a set of ideas, like any other religion and can be criticized.

Women come on here to share their stories are seeking advice in VERY personal matters, so that pretty much washes out your theory of applying the concept to all Muslims, which is what you are getting at.

Education is the solution? Really? Would that be in Europe, which in 1973 struck a deal with Arab nations to spread and teach the ideas of Arabic language and Islam in European schools (I'm sure there's no bias there) in exchange for oil, or prehaps in the USA were over 80% of college professors are democrats who many times force their views on students and where teachers think that every child who doesn't pay attention in the classroom needs depression pills? Or that things like sex outside of marriage and abortion are acceptable and okay and there are NO consquences at all and that it's all a scam by Catholics and Muslims to keep women down?? LOL....

That's an interesting idea. Education is about the FACTS, and the facts are simple:

1) Both Catholic and Muslims do not favor interrelgious marriages. Why? Because BOTH faiths require bringing up children in one faith. Sure, people like Ibrahim Hooper from Council on Islamic Relations will say "It's no problem for us because it's mostly Muslim men and the child follows he religion of the father." He obviiously doesn't know how wives and children practice Christianity behind their backs.

2) Muslims men are just as apt as Russian and Nigerian women to scam a person into a visa or money. They keep doing it because people dish out the money. Even if they meet your family or get married, it doesn't mean it's over. Do you even listen to what people are telling you on here? Problems are starting AFTER marriage!

3) I don't see Christians and pagans saying "We will marry Arab and Indoenesian Muslim women but the whole time we will remain loyal to our religion and raise the children secretly as whatever religion we are."

Cause that's what a marriage is about, you know, keeping secrets about your children from each other.

If anything, what this world needs is more people who follow a set of values, IE RELIGION as opposed to some false secular education scheme.

And you wonder why there's so many Catholics and Muslims in the world? Good, solid rural values. Not some BS skewed agenda found in Western universities and schools.
