Answer 2

Hypocrisy has become part of your culture. After all you have to defend your "civilized culture" by any means.And it is your religious duty too.But Islam is spreading in spite of these hypocritical methods that Christians and others are using to stop it. From the "moon god" lies of Robert Morey to the almost daily distortions in the media, Islam is still spreading in the West. Actually, the fact that those who make a career out of attacking Islam, such as Christian missionaries, have to resort to lies and distortions when they discuss Islam is a good sign.
If Islam was just some ridiculous "Third World" religion with no appeal, you would not have to treat it this way. As a matter of fact, a great deal of the anti-Islamic literature that fills Christian bookstores (and the Internet) is not designed to convert Muslims, but to turn Westerners off to Islam. The people who write these lies are just trying to poison the minds of people so that they won't be receptive to the message of Islam when they hear it.
Your methods, however, are failing. In Europe especially, the Christian religion is in a severe state of stagnation and people are looking for truth elsewhere.
Many notable Westerners have embraced Islam, recently as well as in the past. One of the most interesting things about this is many (if not all) of these people could be called "Searchers for the Truth". By this I mean that they were the type of people who were spiritual, open-mined and read books on many subjects. They were not brainwashed simpletons who simply wanted to join an easy religion and the dominating culture of the time. They were people who knew a lot not only about religion, but about history, philosophy and other disciplines. Suffice it to say that the truth of Islam is out there, in spite of all the negative press that it gets today.
Offence is best defence. Keep it up. May Allah give us all patience.

Did you even watch it?
As a last resort when he has exhausted all avenues and his wife has gone too far it is permissible to hit her with a toothpick......Yes a toothpick, not to inflict pain just as a symbol of letting her know she has pushed you to your limit. He clearly states you are NOT allowed to beat your wife she is a human being. He also stated that you are not allowed to cause bruises or mark her or hit her with the TOOTHPICK where it would cause pain.
OM Goodness talk about making a mountain out of a mole Hill. TOOTHPICK PEOPLE, TOOTHPICK.

And PS this Muslim woman has never been beaten with anything not even a shaving of a toothpick. Wow how many women in America alone die of abuse at the hands of there boyfriends and husbands? Yeah be disgusted about a man who is permitted to use a small piece of stick when he has tried and tried and tried and tried with patience every other avenue. Shish do you people have nothing better to do with your time?
