To Jamila

The Catholic Church and other religions cannot do anything about the issue of Catholics marrying Muslims. If women would read the Qu'ran as well as a couple good books on Islam, perhaps they would develop some insight.

If a Muslim "converts" a Christian, person of Jewish faith, etc., all of his sins are forgiven. The primary goal of Muslims is to convert the entire world. Most of the men that women on this website interact with know absolutely nothing about the religion. They have been brainwashed in the so-called religious schools and by the religious leaders. Their parents know nothing about the religion either.

For example, pork being forbidden for human consumption did not originate in the teachings of Islam. This concept originated with the Jewish faith. When you read the history of Islam you will learn why Muslims were taught to hate non-Muslims. Jamila, the Catholic Church or western governments cannot legislate insight and common sense.

I will tell you now that unless people in western countries do not develop a better understanding of Islam and the cultures of Muslim countries, one of these days in the not too distant future, profound chaos will reign.
