The leader of Isis has a degree and a PhD in Islamic Studies . (Page 11) I K R: http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/female-genital-mutilation/Pages/Introduction.aspx Thats according to our national health service/NHS It causes untold physical and emotional trauma while enforcing the inherent gender inequality found in cultures that practice FGM. - See more at: http://www.plan-uk.org/because-i-am-a-girl/female-genital-mutilation-fgm/#sthash.FDvbikau.dpuf I K R: In countries that openly practise FGM, the incidence can be very high – such as in Egypt (91%) and Somalia (97%, even though the country has recently declared FGM illegal)*. Female genital mutilation is a global problem that requires a global solution. Even in countries where FGM is banned, girls can be equally at risk, as the practice is often hidden. In addition laws are often not effectively enforced and prosecutions are rarely sought. Around the globe, 130 million girls and women have undergone FGM. In Africa 101 million girls aged 10 and over have been subjected to FGM. Every year a further 3 million girls are at risk of FGM in Africa alone. In the UK potentially thousands of girls are at risk each year. Not one person in Britain has ever been put on trial over this Zanjan: Well, you certainly like to send people on wild goose chases. We know what FGM is. That wasn't the question. The links you provided don't support any actual statistics, nor your assertion that it's a religious practice, or that its done in the West. What they do is spread paranoia, which, apparently, has affected you. Not helpful to anyone. Have you given anyone your money yet? One only needs to make a fake claim once to destroy trust; repeated deception doesn't buy one a single iota of integrity. Yes, I'm a deeply religious person - I speak the truth. Having said that, I'm thinking you're in greater need than you realize; you should consider making an appointment with the Office of the Public Guardian instead of signing an enduring power of attorney. (Edited by Zanjan) Zanjan: I don't support the practice and have never given any indication that would make one think that. If anyone else goes to those links, they'll see how Conchita has read them and how gullible she is. I spoke kindly. You see, I could have said "the devil only deceives the wicked", as written in the Bible. BUT, I didn't say that. (Edited by Zanjan) I K R: well since i copied and pasted from those links....just how big is your nose?? Is it like Pinocchio big? I K R: Jews can speak out against their religion, without endangering their life Jews can speak out against Israel, without anyone calling for their death Only in Islam is the death penalty issued for apostates and those who speak out against Islam......This is a major difference between the major religions, and its one that cant be ignored......The very idea that there can be any "honour" in killing your own child is grotesque davidk14: . Christianity and Islam are major religions. Each has followings in the billions. Judaism is a minor religion with only 14 million. Just wanted to point that out. . I K R: yeah, I should of explained as this is a lil off topic... my reason for pointing this out was because of something I read on another wall post....They were making the point that some Jews support Palestine in the Israel/Palestine conflict....which is fair enough...But theres plenty of Muslims and ex Muslims who speak out for Israel....so does this mean that Islam/The Quran doesn't teach Muslims to hate Jews? No because heres two examples......it simply means that not all Muslims are defined by their faith Sura 5:51 O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you - then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people. Surat 5:62 And you see many of them (Jews) hurrying for sin and transgression, and eating illegal things [as bribes and Riba (usury), etc.]. Evil indeed is that which they have been doing. Not all Muslims hate all Jews in-spite of the teachings of Islam not because of it I K R: check this out........ http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/police-investigate-after-reports-two-10094479 Then the paper ran another story because it was ONLY a sexual assault rather than a rape that took place....Now heaven forbid a man committing sexual assault gets unfairly branded as rapist....poor guy....my heart bleeds. http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/police-say-claims-two-girls-10168880 The police are asking for members of the public to come forward if they think they saw anything suspicious.....Well I've seen something very suspicious.....there's no description of the attacker let alone an artists impression....and for all those who live here we know exactly what that means. I K R: another Hate preacher of Islam who has managed to get himself an influential job as a college professor.....will Muslims be outraged by what he says n demand his resignation....lol...of course not! | Religion Chat Room 31 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
