Close. A recent poll suggested that we literally have four women here. Where's Mitt Romney and his binders when you need him?

I would be very scared of voting for someone who follows the Quran 100% of the time (for woman-related and non-woman-related reasons)...
But you would be cool with someone who follows the Bible 100% of the time (ie making his wife call him master and submit to him in all things and calling women "weak")?
No, of course not. Or the Vedas, or whatever. Honestly, even if there was nothing objectionable in those texts, basing your entire belief system on a single text makes you unfit to be President IMO. I actually considered adding an "(or the Bible)" to my post, but I was worried that I would get an angry stream of "WHY WOULD YOU MENTION THE BIBLE THIS IS THE MUSLIM BASHING THREAD" posts, so I decided against it. Maybe I should have put it there, in retrospect. Also FWIW I'm a Jewish agnostic.

This is a bad place to go to do a poll of only women.
I am aware that women are a minority in these places. That tells me quite a bit about their character as compared to men. What does it tell you? Regards DL

I see both Yahweh and Allah as vile demiurges. The morality that they show is more satanic than god-like. Try talking morals to either group and see how they run. We have brought Christianity to heel and will have to do the same with Islam. Regards DL

Are you saying that the men here support misogyny and homophobia and do not care that Christianity and Islam also support those evils? Regards DL

Well, you see, not all Muslims are the same... so it would depend on their views...
If their views were similar to mine, I'd probably vote for them just like I would with any other person.
I used the words "a practicing Muslim". I certainly hope your views and ideology are not similar to theirs. Regards DL

Not a woman, but I would think it depends on the extent of what "practicing" means. I would be very scared of voting for someone who follows the Quran 100% of the time (for woman-related and non-woman-related reasons), but there's nothing wrong with praying five times a day and such.
Are you aware of this quote and what do you think of it as it applies to what you wrote? Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. - Albert Einstein Regards DL

Regards DL
Well considering that 40-50% of the men here are gay, I doubt that.
That many. Wow. I would expect more creative writing then but I have yet to see it. Regards DL

Well isn't that a little homophobic? Maybe a tiny, tiny bit?
Is giving a compliment to gays a sign of homophobia? I think the opposite to be true. Regards DL
