What is wrong with Islam?

Well this a pretty horrifying thing to say. Can you express this view normally in your society? Saying things like this openly would make you a social outcast pretty quickly in the area of the world I live in.
I told
I need to search
It was just a statement not a fact

But if it is a fact I doubt u can accept it

It is likely out of practical considerations (to do with inability to maintain good agricultural hygiene and to do with difficulty in keeping them in an arid environment) which brought on the ban on eating pork in early Abrahamism.
Early Abrahamism?
Incidentally, I've always wondered at that. The Torah explains that what is not kosher are animals that don't have split hooves and ruminate. Pig falling under that category is incidental (although the Torah does give it as an example of an animal that only has one of the signs). There's no specific ban on eating pig any more so than on camel.

Yeah, I read the passage :)

I referred to it as Abrahamic cos there were a lot of streams within it aside from Judaism. Sabians and Samaritans and so on are just as old.

Even I read in some researches that women consider this kind of beat as a sign that their husbands still love them
Beating them in their views is kind of consideration and women think still their husbands care about them

I'm surprised about this fact
Seems I need to ask women myself

The funny thing is you're responding to a woman with that post.

I didn't mean to say "Judaism" but maybe "Israelites" or something.

Scots,

It also calls for husbands to love their wives as Christ loves the church. How did Christ love the love the church? He died for the church. So you see it's not at all like Islam. Context is key read the whole verse.

Perhaps I'm not the one you should be telling this to. Maybe you should point this out to the Christians who use Scripture to justify beating their wives?

Another example:
There's isn't anything wrong with the Light,
The only wrong is with the dirt who has covered it. :)

I don't think women don't even have to wear hijab as long they cover themselves up.
Yes, women are required to cover up, including their ears and neck. I am unaware of any Quran or Hadith that requirement for something so severe like a burqa, but requiring women to cover themselves for reasons of the sexuality of men is wrong. Men need to learn how to control men, even here in the West, but especially were women have to cover up, completely, to avoid sexually arousing men in a place where a woman literally risks her life by being condemned as an adulterer if she reports a rape. That's what this "covering up" and "making women responsible" leads to. A woman doesn't have to parade around in a hyper-sexualized way, but if she's wearing a cute and flattering dress then men should learn how to control themselves.

And it's really distressing that many idiots believe such kind of silly propaganda.
Personally, I don't get this "religion of peace" thing, because the ancient Chinese military book, The Art of War, is far more peaceful, tolerant, and forgiving than the Quran. Sun Tzu said the best way to win a war is to not even fight at all if it can be avoided, to treat prisoners with decency, and fighting only when necessary. The Quran instructs brutal violence, destruction, and, of course, the deaths of heretics and apostates.

I wouldn't join Islam because I am not convinced that Muhammad was ever a real prophet...and from what I read in his biography and history of his life, I am not convinced he was ever a good man.
