Also women had suffrage in the 1950s. As much as I hate to say it, not much good came about with women's suffrage. I'll say it because no other girl will, women don't make good political decisions. When reason and emotion come into conflict, emotion usually wins for most women. That's not to say I think it should be taken away because there have been great female politicians like Margaret Thatcher, Frauke Petry and Kirralie Smith. But there should be a requirement, either you need a minimum amount of property or maybe pass a test. Test would have to be very basic and based on facts irrelevant to political opinion such as what are the 3 branches of government, which of the following is the 1st ammendment, etc. I'd prefer the latter and have a voting license for citizens wanting to vote. It's amazing how many people don't know these basic things but they are allowed to vote.
If you want to debate whether cherry picking the Bible is or isn't the right way to be a Christian that is a separate debate. The point is that Christians have rejected certain things or changed it so that it is acceptable in society. Islam needs to do the same. Then you can go about discussing whether or not that is the right way to practice Islam. Peaceful Muslims are exactly what I said, they are westernized Muslims that have mixed their Islamic belief with western belief. That is fine by me. If they aren't willing to adopt western values they aren't welcome.
Now if you excuse me I have to go pleasure myself to a photo of daddy Trump
Because Christianity has reformed and most Christians aside from actual fringe groups like Amish, don't believe those things from the Bible. They 'cherrypick' so to speak. Muslims haven't done that. I'm saying if they want to keep their religion they have to reform like Christianity has otherwise it has no place in our modern society. Hurrdurr the Bible has horrible things too so we should let third world hordes into our country. How bout no. Pointing out that the Bible has similar messages doesn't negate the atrocities listed in the Koran and the fact that Muslims actually follow them to this day unlike Christians.
This is the first time I mentioned former Muslims so don't say 'again'. For the third time I DO recognize that there are peaceful Muslims in the world. You however seem to think there is nothing wrong with Islam. There are plenty of bad Muslims just like there are plenty of bad catholics. And just like how catholics keep their pedophiles on the down low, Muslims keep their terrorists on the down low. The difference is that the terrorists are fundamentalists and they base their actions directly from the Koran. There is no catholic that would justify pedophilia and they know they are doing wrong. Fundamentalist Muslims however think they are doing right. Former Muslims and Muslim reformers would say similar things that I've said. They criticize and point out the major problems in the religion because they want to change it. You think Islam is fine the way it is because there are a Muslims in the west, many of whom are westernized, that act civil but if you go to Muslim majority countries like Iran it's a whole different story. If Muslims want to change Islam and change what Mohammed said and follow religious practices that are different from what Mohammed originally said to fit with modern times I have no problems with that. But right now you can't bring in people that think women should be covered or they deserve to be raped, you can't bring in people that think stoning gays is appropriate, you can't bring in people that have child brides. That isn't fringe Muslim belief, that is mainstream Islam. You don't see it here because Muslims here are westernized. But look at what fresh third world Muslims are doing to Europe. If that makes me islamaphobic so be it. I'd rather be labeled islamaphobic than risk getting raped.
