But inside my heart I know the only commandment of God is love.
Sorry, but wrong. God has more commandments than love. People don't want to think of having to suffer consequences for their sin, so they choose to only think of God as love. There is much more. But thank God for Jesus Christ who suffered for us. Islam is not the way to Heaven. We can only get their through Jesus Christ. I'm sure she is a nice girl, but she is in the dark about salvation and someone should help her see the light.

"I don't like politics and I don't understand them."

Sounds just like many American women. Sad.

Is there any way we can ask her questions? A reasonable q & a session would be more productive. I would love to know her opinion on the WTC attacks which she did not mention. I think that is part of the problem, most Muslims ignore that elephant in the living room. Or NYC as the case is.

Very nice. But to post this here, in my opinion, is an insult. I think I speak for most of the people at FR when I say that we are quite aware that not all Muslim women wear veils, are beaten, etc. etc. We are not morons, like Ms. Rini thinks we are.

Apparently you posted just a minute too soon (look at post #5 hehehe)

Man kills sister over family honour

By Rana Husseini

AMMAN –– Police in Ajloun apprehended a 35-year-old man who reportedly confessed to killing his younger married sister for reasons of family honour on Sunday, official sources said.

The victim, Fadia G., 20, received several bullets to different parts of her body by her enraged brother in their family home in Anjara, a small village outside Ajloun, the source told The Jordan Times on Monday.

The suspect then turned himself in to police shortly after the murder was committed, the source added.

According to the source, the victim was engaged in an affair with the man who later became her husband after their affair was discovered.

“The two were wed in a civil ceremony by the [Ajloun] governor three months ago,” the source said.

However, the suspect did not approve of his sister's marriage and plotted to kill her, the source added.

On Sunday, the source said, the suspect walked into the room where his sister was and shot her to death.

Fadia became the 18th woman reported murdered in the Kingdom for family honour since the beginning of the year.

the newspapers and the television and the radio shows me nothing but images I do not want to see. I can't stand the pictures I see.

Of course. You must understand, you are being shown what you do not want to see for a purpose--to seduce you into looking. To entice and entrap you, to make you think the world is full of evil around every corner. In short, to make you feel that you have to know "what is going on in the world"--and that the way to learn that is to look at those pictures and hear those reports.

It is hogwash. Those reports may be true--probably are--but they represent only a very small portion of reality even if so; they are a half-truth. Look to the truth that endures.

How do we know who the author really is? Even if it is a woman she could be a liar on behalf of a political cause.

You are probably a very nice young lady...however, your so called "Holy Quran" advocates the murder of everyone that is not of the Islam faith.

Jesus, of the *true* lineage of Abraham never condoned physical violence. So for you to compare the not so holy Quran and the christian bible is disengenious.

I find some people to be naive about the true meaning and nature of their beliefs.

If a group I was affialated with was committing atrocities around the world, I would address that issue if someone asked me to write such a piece. At the very least, I would mention the dead.

20 years old? This is written by a pre-schooler. No matter, Muslims have proven themselves to be people of the lie anyway. Just another cultists spewing BS.

Here's a picture of Muslim women taken at a rally in Jakarta, Indonesia. Does she remember it? Was she there? Would she care to comment on the sign being held up by the young lady?

Indonesian Muslim protesters shout anti-U.S. and Israel slogans during a protest in Jakarta, Indonesia, Friday, Sept. 28, 2001. More than 2,000 people rallied in the center of Jakarta on Friday demonstrating against a feared U.S.-led attack on Afghanistan. (AP Photo/Achmad Ibrahim)

Except on the days I go to Mosque

Can you ask her how she feels about the fact that in Saudi Arabia, the seat of the holiest places in Islam, that women aren't allowed in many mosques and are "encouraged to pray at home" (their words)? In the mosques that do allow women, they have to enter through a different entrance than the men do.
