hi donna,

I must congratulate you for this mind and thinking. I am shocked but very glad to read what I totally agree with....Finally there is someone who really thinks and believes that Islam was the first to provide equal voting and inheritance rights to females and that women aren't inferior to men in any way and are the closest to God because they are the vessels in which he creates life.

I just want to ask you exactly how did you form such a clear idea about the religion? is it because you were in the middle east for a while? can I say that you have seen Islam in it's true meaning and purpose? It's just that you're pretty much the only one out here who seems to understand the difference between culture and religion....and what Islam is trying to say.

have a nice day
