Hello,
My name is Furi Setio Rini and I am a Muslim woman. I am 20 years old and live in Jakarta, Indonesia. I am attending my third year of medical school at Trisatki University. My friend, Ronin, asked me to write this because he is very disturbed about the hatred of Islam that he is seeing on your board.
What can I say about me? Well, I think I am an average Indonesian girl. I like movies and music. I love to shop for new clothes. Sometimes I eat too much. I do not like the music that is too loud. I don't like politics and I don't understand them.
I have to laugh when I hear western people talk about Muslim women. Somehow they think that all of us are beaten by men and treated like animals. If you had ever seen my father, my brothers and me, running away from my mother when she was angry, you would know how silly that is.
I have never worn a veil. I wear make up and I use lipstick. Except on the days I go to Mosque. On those days I clean myself as much as I can. I do not believe that it makes much difference to God, but I want him to see me with my true face, and heart.
I have two brothers. One of them is older, the other is younger than me. I guess that they are like brothers everywhere. Sometimes I love them. Sometimes I hate them. Sometimes I wish I could kill them. But no, that is a lie. Even when I think I hate them, I love them. They are my brothers, my family. I love and respect my father and my mother. I adore my father and hope to find a husband just like him.
I have not been kissed yet. And I have not been held as a woman wants to be held. Yes, I want it. Yes, I dream about it. But I can wait until I find the man I will marry. And no -- it will not be a marriage arranged by my parents. I will choose my husband, and he will choose me. We will marry because we love each other and want to spend the rest of our lives with each other. God willing.
I am studying to be a doctor. It is my best dream and ambition to be a doctor in a small village where doctors are rare. I want to be able to help the most common people of my country. I want to make life better for them. I want to bring happy and healthy babies to loving mothers and proud fathers. I want to give comfort to the old people who have so much to teach us. I want to share my love with true and real results.
I am not perfect. I am quite lazy sometimes and I have to force myself to studies on days when it is too hot, or at times when there are so many other interesting things to do. But this is a story about Muslim women, so maybe I should talk about that a little. What is Islam to me? This is a question that is very hard for me to answer. Islam is in my blood. I pray to God each day. I ask for health and happiness for my family, my friends and my country. More than that I cannot say. I love God and I pray to Him daily. . Is that any different from you?
I pray to God each day for wisdom. But 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.
I hate war. I hate it! I hate it! I hate it!
I hate it almost as much as I hate pediatrics class. Not because I hate newborn babies, I love them. I want my own babies. But, I hate learning about the illnesses and the horrible conditions that can happen when a baby gets sick.
My heart cries. Sometimes, just opening the textbook is a horror. To see a stillborn baby makes a small death inside me. But I must learn, because if I cannot learn to treat them and make them well, more babies may die. I cannot think of anything worse.
I think that most Indonesian girls are like me. And, most Indonesian boys are like boys everywhere. They like cars and sports. They play music too loud. When they think they are so cool and exciting, they are usually very boring. The television and radio you see is not showing you the proper vision of my country or my people. We live and we love. We go to restaurants, movies, and clubs.
I do not drink alcohol, but I do not find that a hardship. (I did have a glass of red wine once. It did not taste very good.) My father and my brother smoke cigarettes, but I don't. No, we do not eat pork.
Men say that the words of God are in the Holy Quran, the Christian Bible and in the Jewish books. I do not know about that. I read the Holy Quran and try to live my life in the teachings that it contains. But inside my heart I know the only commandment of God is love. I love God. And I know that God is love.
So, this is my testament. It is not very profound.
I am a Muslim woman. I love God. God is love. I love you all.

My dear, you are not a Muslim Woman, you are a woman who happens to have been raised in a Muslim family. We, on this website, are not referring to you, and others like you. It is the hating, aggressive, devious, murderous Muslim people of whom we speak, and will have no more of. They are much more "Muslim" than you...so they say. They do not like you either, but tolerate you so that their numbers swell, and against the day that they may need you to shield them in some way...perhaps with your life, and the lives of those babies you love so much.When ordinary people like you, and your family and friends realize that your religion has been hijacked by murderers...or that your religion is not actually the religion that you think it is, and practice, perhaps you will no longer support and shield these evil-inhabited souls, and we can all get along, and enjoy our lives together, as we here in America would genuinely, deeply like to do. We mean you no harm, but the people you support and protect have brutally murdered us, and we sincerely hope you nice folks will get out of the way, for we are coming for them...with finality. Please try to understand. Our President speaks for us, when he tells you that we are your friends. I hope you can come to America some time soon...and see what we are really like, and know how people can behave, when God has blessed the country in which they, and their ancestors, have lived.
My poor Mutly,
Since you so rarely venture out of your abode to post things here, I thought this utterance of yours, especially, was worth repeating.:
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 faithAah, you're so full of it.
I have had SEVERAL Bosnian muslims tell me that it was the Jews who destroyed the WTC!! The stupidity of these people is HORRID!!Blaming all bad things on the Jews is a remnant of the WWII Nazis 'm afraid. Shoulda slapped them upside the head.
LOL!
And to think, Saudi Arabia is the most hallowed ground that the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, walked upon and the two holiest shrines in all Islam are located within its borders. Not only that, but the Holy Qu'ran tells us that the Imam al-Mahdi - the predicted One who in the last days will bring the sword of Allah's judgment against the world, slaying all infidels, converting the entire world to Islam, and ushering in an age of peace - will be from Arabia.
You have unwittingly besmirched and smeared all of Islam.
You can't so go hide your head in a sand storm......idiot.
Well, you can't do that in Afghanistan or any other country where Moslems have full power. Indonesia still has some non-Moslems and a background based on Dutch and British normalcy. But your President Megawati Sukarnoputri has not made a stand against the Taliban or bin Laden. She thinks she can play a waiting game instead of leading her people away from the evil. The USA just gave her $657 million in U.S. financial aid. Weve given your country aid for years. Now, with your anti-American, anti-Western attitude the international monetary players are pulling out all investment from Indonesia because they see your future written on the wall. It is spelled T-A-L-I-B-A-N.
...he is very disturbed about the hatred of Islam that he is seeing on your board.
We hate the stupidity of a 'religion' that is based on killing innocent people.
I like movies and music.
In Afghanistan they had a soccer field just for you. Now THANKS TO AMERICA perhaps it will be used for its intended purpose and not as a killing ground.
I love to shop for new clothes.
Well, great. But its hard to tell what you look like when you have to wear a veil from head to toe.
Sometimes I eat too much.
Tell that to the Palestinian children who go hungry because their great leader Yasser Arafat steals their money and spends it one wine, women, and song.
I do not like the music that is too loud.
I do not like the fact that Moslems dance in the streets when Americans die..
I don't like politics and I don't understand them.
Well you better start paying attention. Your country is turning more and more violent and ugly every year. There are continual activities against non-Moslems taking place every day--and Christians and foreigners are being killed. Is this what Moslems mean by a peaceful 'religion'?
I have to laugh when I hear western people talk about Muslim women.
We don't laugh when we see women beaten with whips because they are not covered up enough to suit some sick perverted 'believer'. We don't laugh when a woman is stoned to death because she has fallen in love with someone. We do not laugh that a woman cannot get a divorce and marry a man of her choice, but a man can divorce a woman any time he chooses.
Somehow they think that all of us are beaten by men and treated like animals. If you had ever seen my father, my brothers and me, running away from my mother when she was angry, you would know how silly that is.
Oh, no. I have lived in your countries. Women can be just as bitchy anywhere. And there are mothers who want their children to have good lives and to be good people. But to let your children to grow up in a culture of pure hate is not to be a good mother.
I have never worn a veil.
Well, wake up girl!!! Your time is coming. The 'believers' in your country are getting crazier every year. [Note to FREEPERS: Can anyone post some of the horror stories out of Indonesia during the past year or two?]
I wear make up and I use lipstick. Except on the days I go to Mosque.
Try that in some of your Moslem countries and see what it will get you.
I love and respect my father and my mother.
Will your mother smile and encourage one of your brothers to strap dynamite around his waist and walk into a restaurant to kill innocent people? Does your father demand that the Sick Perverted Museum that portrays as heroes the FILTHY COLD BLOODED MURDERERS who do such acts be closed.
I adore my father and hope to find a husband just like him.
If your father loves you, he will turn against a religion that would harm you. He will turn against Imams who preach evil against the West. He will turn against people in your community who allow illegal Taliban and Al Queda terrorists live in your midst. He will turn against a system that will eventually destroy you.
I have not been kissed yet.
Tell me, do you agree with the practice of Moslem men using young boys for sex--because it is not really sex. What is it? Is the man of your dreams going to learn his first act of LOVE, from the hands of a man? Is he going to do the same in turn?
And I have not been held as a woman wants to be held. Yes, I want it. Yes, I dream about it.
Of course, that is when you get your turn. What about the nights that he is with one of his other wives?
But I can wait until I find the man I will marry...it will not be a marriage arranged by my parents.
I bet. Try to fall in love with some handsome Christian. See what that will get you.
I will choose my husband, and he will choose me. We will marry because we love each other and want to spend the rest of our lives with each other. God willing.
Sure. He will have 51 children with you and three other wives. You will be one of a crowd. Your children will be lost in the mix and your life will be one of constantly trying to position yourself to be first--if even for a little while.
I am studying to be a doctor. It is my best dream and ambition to be a doctor in a small village where doctors are rare.
Lots of the kids who are now orphans because MOSLEMS killed their parents in the World Trade Center and Pentagon bombings have dreams. They dream of their parents death. They dream.
I want to be able to help the most common people of my country.
Help them to learn that they cannot continue to live in ignorance. Wake up to the ugliness of Islam. Wake up to the fact that it is not a 'religion' based on love, but rather the ranting of a sick man.
I want to make life better for them. I want to bring happy and healthy babies to loving mothers and proud fathers.
There are mothers who encourage their sons to die as so-called 'martyrs' so that the rest of the family can get free health care. Some loving mothers!
I want to give comfort to the old people who have so much to teach us.
Do they teach you to let people live in peace. To not impose your ideas on others. To open your mind to ideas. If your 'religion' was based on love and tolerance, you would not mind Christians or Bahia or Buddhists in your midst. You would have confidence in your ideas. Moslems need to terrorize each other into believing. Putting the fear of man, not the fear of God into believers minds. Moslems have to bribe converts with crazy ideasvirgins or four wives or some other such nonsense. You look for the weak minded and they become you.
Islam is in my blood.
Get a transfusion.
I pray to God each day.
For what? In America we work at being good. We try always to do better. To learn from our mistakes. We build our freedom brick by brick.
I ask for health and happiness for my family, my friends and my country.
What about us! TELL your family and your friends and your country to stop this anti-American stupidity. America is a great country. The greatest that the world has ever known. We have made mistakes, but our people have always been there to help the downtrodden and to help the world. We give more in charity in one year than the rest of the world. I am not just talking about the government giving food (tons and tons to all sorts of countries--many of them Moslem). Each and every American gives and gives. We give to help. We give because we have good and generous hearts. Even when we have made a mistake and backed the wrong government, we make up for our mistakes. Out of ignorance and the hope that we could control his excesses we supported Batista in Cuba we should have instead looked for a better person to support. We were right that Castro was eviland his destruction of his people has proven that. We just didn't realize how bad both of them were. But we made up for it by accepting all the boat people and now Miami is filled with HAPPY and RICH Cubans who live wonderful and fulfilling lives. If we hadn't shown up in World War II the Japanese would have cut off your heads.
More than that I cannot say. I love God and I pray to Him daily.
Is a God who asks you to hate anyone--Americans or British or Christians or Buddhists--a god of love?
I pray to God each day for wisdom.
Find out the truth of what Islam is based on...and go from there.
But 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.
The actions of MOSLEMS have created these pictures. We are busy making bad comedies and stupid rock videos--generally speaking, we do not go around blowing up innocent women and children, flying jumbo jets into tall buildings, and trying to buy materials to make bombs.
I hate war. I hate it! I hate it! I hate it!
Tell the people of Israel about it. Tell the people in the other 38 MOSLEM countries where Moslems are killing each other and everyone else they can get their hands on. Tell that to the families of the people in the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
I want my own babies.
Tell that to the Sudanese women whose young children (mostly boys) have been stolen and sold into slavery to ARABS who like young boys.
...I hate learning about the ....the horrible conditions that can happen when a baby gets sick.
Tell that to the African mothers in countries where MOSLEMS have destroyed their countries. Where Moslems destroy everything they touch.
I think that most Indonesian girls are like me. And, most Indonesian boys are like boys everywhere.
They like cars and sports.
So did to the young men who died in the World Trade Center.
They play music too loud.
So did the young men and women who died in the World Trade Center. Your people killed them.
We live and we love.
So did the young men and women who died in the World Trade Center. Your people killed them. Your people cheered when they saw the buildings collapse.
We go to restaurants, movies, and clubs.
The young men and women working on that Tuesday in the World Trade Center and the Pentagon will never do that--think about it and choke on your food.
Men say that the words of God are in the Holy Quran, the Christian Bible and in the Jewish books. I do not know about that. Mohammed lied. He based nothing on Jews or Christians--just on his sick ideas. You are worshipping a BIG BLACK HUNK of METEOR just like the ancient pagan worshippers who danced naked around the thing before. It is not from Mohammeds god. He USED IT. He ABUSED IT. It is nothing to brag about. Long before Mohammed ever saw the thing it was being used for pagan rituals.
I read the Holy Quran and try to live my life in the teachings that it contains. If you really did so with an open mind, you would be a different person.
But inside my heart I know the only commandment of God is love. I love God. And I know that God is love. Your 'god' is not love.
So, this is my testament. It is not very profound.
It is sad. You live in a beautiful and rich countryand yet your people are wasting their time. Your fishermen are blowing up the coral reefs to catch fish because they are too lazy to go out with nets. Your fisherman are polluting the waters around your islands because they SPRAY FISH with CYANIDE. You dont pay any attention to improving your own country and your own people. Leave us alone. Stay in your country. Welcome with open arms the enemies of the West. Sleep with bin Laden. I dont care anymore about any of you. I wish we had let the Japanese take over your islands. At least then we would have some hope of dealing with them. You could have a beautiful vital country. But tourists wont come anymore. Your economy will dry up. You will be wearing a veil from head to toenow that is going to be one uncomfortable thing to do in your heat.
I love you all.
Your people don't know the meaning of the word.
Hey tURD......AH, tURK (SORRY) I didn't write the Koran. Prove to me that your "Prophet" didn't say kill everyone that is not a follower of Islam.I am responding to this, not because of your hurtful comments but, because there may be others who visit here later. I am not surprised to have run across your sort, as ignorant fools are found everywhere.
You can't so go hide your head in a sand storm......idiot.
[5.85] Therefore God rewarded them on account of what they said, with gardens in which rivers flow to abide in them; and this is the reward of those who do good (to others).
[5.69] Surely those pious Jews, Sabians, and Christians and whoever believes in God and the last day and does good-- they shall have no fear nor shall they grieve.
[4.94] O you who believe! when you go to war in God's way, make investigation, and do not say to any one who offers you peace: You are not a believer. Do you seek goods of this world's life! But with God there are abundant gains; you too were such before, then God conferred a benefit on you; therefore make investigation; surely God is aware of what you do.
[5.33] The punishment of those who wage war against God and His apostle and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement,
Spin it whatever way you wish. The fact is that the Bible contains many of the same violent direction you pretend only exists in the Koran.
That was the propaganda of the day yes. The truth of the matter is that the Israelites wanted the land and were going to take it by force regardless of the actual circumstances.
You have documentation, I trust?
a_turk said: Blaming all bad things on the Jews is a remnant of the WWII Nazis 'm afraid. Shoulda slapped them upside the head.
kangharue says: Here in Greece ORTHODOX CHRISTIANS were talking about how Jews might have done it. (For those who don't know: Most Greeks hate Jews..and this includes their clergy) This stuff isn't limited to Muslims.
kangharue:
You're the one making the claim. Therefore, the burden of proof is on you.
Don't we all? So? Next please!
This shallow rant did not answer questions about why America keeps repenting and people keep hating it, and terrorists and their harborers are not supposed to repent.
In other words I sincerely doubt islam can look back at itself analyticaly and repent. There will never be peace with islam until islam repents the way christians and jews repent about their own religion.
Islam's prosecution has to end and we can always dream about that happening in our time when the pigs fly. I have already wasted half my life figuring things out and it ain't gona be tomorrow when things get solved.
I want peace damn it, nuke the Middle East if it's needed, there is no other language that will crack into their head.
Well, you can't do that in Afghanistan or any other country where Moslems have full power. Indonesia still has some non-Moslems and a background based on Dutch and British normalcy.

Your people don't know the meaning of the word. When I see Moslems agreeing that Jews have a right to live in Israel and that Christians can be free to live in peace then I will believe that you know what love means.
