All it is is history repeating itself.  Christianity was the world first oppressive religion.  Now Islam is taking the lead.  Big deal.

I understand that some countries will execute women for not wearing the garb, but as I said, in industrialized countries, that would not happen.  The stoners (no pun intended) would be automatically arrested, or stopped by onlookers.  If the society that people live in will allow that kind of fucked up mentality to persist, it's not the religion, but the society as a whole that has issues.

NoAgenda: Way worse shit goes down in third world countries than just the public hanging of people based on prejudices (like gays).

And are you honestly trying to say that taking a risk in order to beat a female, rather than not, is more justified than the latter?

Unfortunately in countries with low standards of living, the populations access to information is often greatly limited. So these people living in these countries have only been exposed to what their government selectively chooses.

Yes Im saying that living in a country where if you physically offend a women and have a chance of going to jail over it(or your assed kicked) is better than a country where you know you can beat the shit out of your women and that anything under the garb would be covered up, and beatin even worse if she dare says something to the wrong person.
