RAISING THOSE CHILDREN

Submitted by ANONYMOUSXXXXXX (United States), May 12, 2009 at 07:00

Pretty much, any kids a woman has with a Muslim man have to be raised Muslim. If you can't abide that, you had better run. That is just their religion and they won't change their minds or compromise. I am lucky in that my hubby and I don't want kids. Their culture teaches them that the man is in charge, women should do what they want and say, etc. The Koran will be used only to support their beliefs, not yours. If you live in Egypt, you will be at the mercy of their culture, which also says it's ok to slap women around, not matter what the Koran says, if you "push them." You would do better to live in USA for sure. Just my two cents....
