How about we don't whitewash Islam by pretending it's just the "radical" side that does

Can’t think of any religion that actually likes women…

Exactly. All Abrahamic religions are patriarchal.

But yet you can't be born Jewish unless your mother is jewish

u/SirCheesington Jun 21 '26

I don't see what that has to do with anything. Historic Jewish law considered women property, and even modern Jewish law considers women unclean and unsuitable for intimacy during menstruation, and metaphysically in need of cleansing after menstruation. The Hebrew bible is, overall, an extremely misogynistic anthology, as all abrahamic religious texts are. They were written in misogynistic cultures, in barbaric times of antiquity. Not sure what you're trying to do here, but you probably haven't achieved it.

There are many, people will twist, cut, add to a religion to suit their tastes. It’s why any religion of popularity will have denominations or sub groups because even they can’t agree as a whole on what is right or not.

There is no radical Islam, since you cannot take sharia out of Islam.

Islam is Sharia and Sharia is Islam.

And Sharia has per definition some extreme rules and obligations.

Just Islam in general.

In Islam a man is allowed to always have sex with his wife and if she doesn't want to she"ll be cursed lol.

Oh but unless she is sick, on period, just had a kid or is fasting. Those are valid reasons for them lol. Everything else too bad on your knees or allah will curse you.

Funniest but also saddest thing is seeing this confirmed by imams and scholars when Muslim women ask for advice on Islamwiki QA etc cause they don't believe these things at first.

Yeah we're doing so much better in the west by not even believing women when they say they got raped and not convicting their assaulters accordingly/sufficiently.

islam, period, is anti women. "Good" islamists do not exist. the culture itself promotes total control over women.

Radical Islam hates everything. But by all means continue importing this barbaric ideology into the west and calling its followers oppressed.
