Poor Meghan

You cannot be a feminist and wear a veil. The veil is a public display of subjugation. It is a mechanism to make women deaf and mute. Women in rags can be nothing but women in rags. Feminism demands equality for women with men, All things being equal ... Islamic men do not wear veils. Why not? Spinning the veil into what it is not does not transform you into a feminist.

Your comparison of the Bible and the Que'ran is rather odd considering that Christians and Jews aren't murdering people all over the world in the name of Allah. Three thousand Americans weren't killed by the Bible toting Christians or the Jews or the Hindus or the the Wickins or the Shintus or the Pagans. Americans were slaughtered by the Islamofascist terrorists.

Unlike the Middle East where Islamofasicism rules except in democratic Israel, it is forbidden to practice any othert religion except Islam. No church or temple for any other religion can be built in Islamofasicist land. Only in the democracies of the west can you practice your religion to your heart's content. You can kiss rugs, receive communion, teach the torah, ring bells to Buddah and dance to the fire of Wickens and/or kneel before a myriad of gods. In your delightful garden of Allah it could cost you your life and your freedom to not kneel before Allah and or proselytize another belief system.

That kind of evil is never ever justified. Killing innocents is never ever justified. There is no freedom under Islam only the power of the few over the many. It's tyranny. Elie Weisel said that worse than slavery is to proselytize ones own enslavement. You have just done that, Meghan.
