re: #167 Obdicut

Obdicut, your remark is a totally uncivil overreaction to anything I said.

I have a lot of respect for Orthodox Judiasm, but it is not an egalitarian movement for women or for gays. It is just not. Fact.

I am not sure why you are saying that I don’t want a Muslim reformer. I mentioned Irshad Manjii in my post who I consider more of a reformer than Rauf. She is a pretty interesting person and if you are not familiar with her writing I would suggest googling her and looking at her Web page.

I think to be a true reformer you have to be willing to be critical of aspects of your religion that aren’t compatible with modern society/mores. I see Manjii doing that more than Rauf.
