you Islam haters will say that Muslim women are oppressed and are taught from early age to think that we are inferior. but the majority of Muslim women in this country(USA) are converts to Islam so how do you explain a women who had been brought up on liberal ideas and then converts to Islam if it was so oppressive?

People don't understand that there are MILLIONS of muslims in the world and the ones we hear about are only the extremists... Mostly, in islam practiced in america, it is a rather loving and liberal religion.

There is no way that you could know if each and every Muslim woman in this country was "brought up on liberal ideas".
As far as labelling goes, you assume that "you Islam haters" all feel the same way about Muslim women, and you go on to presume WHAT "you Islam haters " WILL say.
Sounds pretty narrow-minded to me

Live a few years in the Middle East, say Saudi Arabia, then talk. You are an American, You do not follow the ancient traditions and would be taught a lesson very quickly in any of the fundamentalist countries of the Middle East. If you don't want that, stay here, be a princess in your own mind, because fundamental Islam is NOT what you are living, my dear.

this may not go for all, but i have seen many white women marry muslim guys and thus there is a bias and they convert
I've also seen a lot of muslim people put down other religions to make their's look true, christians have done the same, instead of telling people about the number of converts, why don't you give me substance from your religion, i'm willing to know more about the religion, and less about the followers

That video made me sick. It goes against my whole being. Here in Australia women are free to drink and mix with men and choose their own partners. We even have an atheist woman unmarried but in a de facto relationship Prime Minister. As an aside to make me laugh and not be so pissed off, last time I went to a strip club I (a man) felt totally exploited.

Thanks you for asking that question!
While I am non-religious I have to say that I think you brought up an outstanding point... if your statistics are actually true that is.
We need more intillectual muslims like you at news.faithfreedom.org so that we can debate instead of hate!

That's like asking a battered woman why she doesn't leave her abuser.
It's a very complicated explanation and I honestly don't think you'd understand it.
Suffice to say that they have our pity. Imagine joining a cult where you are thought of as less than a pet. Staggering...

don't worry.
christian children are brainwashed from the first day they are born, too. brainwashed by their parents and family into cult nonsense.
it is the worst form of child abuse.
most people would never choose christianity, but fear the brainwashing, and they fear the bible threats.
