8. I admit I didn't read the article
or all of it. Limited time. But I was responding to the tenor of the posts, which I felt implied that ALL Muslims act this way. I get this sort of stuff from other boards as well-one person told me I should "get rid of my veil" and learn that Islam was a tool of the Devil because it puts down women. I don't wear a veil-and the prayers I recite each day are gender neutral (and in English). Not all Muslims are the same, and that was my point.

As I said before, it is obvious you have your own firm opinions, and so I won't try to change them. As a wise man told me, don't wake up a person who is asleep. Just so, don't try to dissuade a person from strongly held beliefs.
