re: #271 tradewind

It is the core philosophy of the religion itself, which does not include full equality for women, and that is just wrong.

The bible is quite clear that it’s a core philosophy of Christianity too, both in the Old and New Testaments. Let me know if you want me to go fetch a sampling those verses.

If today’s Christians aren’t practicing those strictures, then one could argue that they aren’t practicing properly. If you grant that Christianity can ignore those strictures and still be Christianity, then you have to grant the same leeway to Islam.
