throughout christian history, woman was thought to be from the devil. entirely blaming the woman for the temptations man can not resists.Many were branded as witches and burned. Is it the same story in the quran?

williamzo..i did not mean to make offensive statements or concoct lies. That's why i asked. I based my questions from books written by western anthropologist authors regarding the unjust inquisition of witches, and the follies of the priests impregnating nuns.

The Quran says that but Adam (pbuh) and Eve were wrong and that it was both their fault. Therefore we do not have original sin

Actually, the Quran says that both Adam and Eve were responsible for their sins, neither more than the other, nor does it state that Eve is responsible for the struggles women endure in life. Islam gives women a sense of placement in society besides just the home, and control over herself rather than property of a husband or father.

NOT at all. Our Prophet used to stand up in respect for his own daughter, as women are the honor of a society, as they are moms or future moms and daughters of a people.
In our belief system men have a role in keeping the present protected, while women protect the future of our society. Both play a crucial and important role in upliftment of societies.
Those who employ their women in earning the present end up losing the future of their ways of life.
Women and men are equal in the sight of the Lord. If a woman does a good deed, she gets an equal reward to that of a man.
In Worldly affairs men are required to take greater risks so the future of our society is protected, so the man has to go to war, while the women and children (who are the future) are preserved so that they may establish the system for the future generations.
People misunderstand ISLAM completely. Prostituting women's body for profit is considered an ultimate insult in Islam. Women are the honor of a society. When they are dishonored in any society, the society itself eventually will be dishonored.
I see my wife as the mother of all my future generations and she looks at me as the father of all future generations. So we love and honor each other as we honor ourselves.
We work to establish the worship of the MOST HIGH on Earth, so good deeds shall one day prevail over evil in all its forms.

whatever the guys said about woman's place in islam is absouletly right no doubt in it. but there is definitely some where in Quran or hadith that one of the symbol for the doomsday is that woman will be nude and it will be considered as normal. so thats what we are seeing in west and most of other parts of world. that woman dress is getting shorter and shorter and even some places they dont bother to wear at all.

No
Islam does not consider woman an "evil temptress", and thus does not blame woman for the "original sin".
in koran Adam disobyed God and
Adam "atoned" for his sin by saying "My Lord I have sinned and if you do not forgive me and have mercy upon me then I shall indeed have lost." So God forgave him. Similarly, all human beings have the door to forgiveness left open to them by God

No. Women are given full respect & rights in Islam. Qur'an doesn't blame Eve for Adam's fate. Rather, Qur'an blames Satan (devil) & blames those people who fall in Devil's traps as they don't stay on God's path.
In pre-Islamic society, women were treated horribly. If any female child was born, she was buried alive. Female child was considered as evil luck. There was no value for women. But, when Islam emerged, it confirmed women's place in society:
1. Islam honours women as mothers who must be respected, obeyed and treated with kindness. Pleasing one's mother is regarded as part of pleasing Allaah. Islam tells us that Paradise lies at the mother’s feet.
2. Islam also honours women as wives. Islam urges the husband to treat his wife in a good and kind manner, and says that the wife has rights over the husband like his rights over her.
3. Islam honours women as daughters, and encourages us to raise them well and educate them. Islam states that raising daughters will bring a great reward.
4. Islam honours woman as sisters and as aunts. Islam enjoins upholding the ties of kinship and forbids severing those ties in many texts.
5. Islam enjoins a specific dress code for women, not to make their life difficult, rather to ensure respect & honor among people.
Islam raised the status of women, and made them equal with men in most rulings. So women, like men, are commanded to believe in Allaah and to worship Him. And women are made equal to men in terms of reward in the Hereafter. Women have the right to express themselves, to give sincere advice, to enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil, and to call people to Allaah. Women have the right to own property, to buy and sell, to inherit, to give charity and to give gifts.

No. not at all. In Islam, people aren't blamed. Each is responsible for their own actions and will answer to God.
