I have been reading some historical works on Middle Eastern culture. It appears that Islam merely incorporated the current cultural approach and customs regarding women of that era in the Middle East.

An entire mob raped that poor reporter because someone yelled “Jew! Jew!” As a result she had to leave the networks.

Lara Logan. She now appears on Fox News.

Political bias is destroying people’s faith in journalism

Lara Logan, former correspondent for “60 Minutes,” caused a stir last week when, on a podcast called “Mike Drop,” she said that too many in the media have become “political activists.” Here, she explains to The Post how one-sided reporting has undermined the credibility of the press.

Why did Jeff stop there? He also could have asked if Islam is anti-environment.

About a decade ago I kept trying to create accounts on DU using different gmail accounts. Each time I’d try to act neutral and not say anything “conservative”. No account ever lasted over a day - because I would ask very carefully worded non-accusational and simple, honest questions like that one on various subjects and “BAM” banned.

Even allowing reasonable questions to enter your mind proves you’re not one of them.

Well, so much for his Gig as a the Advertising Spokesman for Apartments.com.

I’ll bet Attendance at Jurassic Park will take a nosedive as well.

It’s far more discriminatory and treacherous towards others than the KayKayKay ever was, I condone neither,but the left loves one and hates the other. Can’t figure that out.

[Chickensoup]

Interesting,

Everyone attacked him

No one answered the question.

[Chickensoup]

which era?

[odawg]

The era that preceded the time of Islam’s codification. Some of the Old Testament guidelines on the treatment of women were to nullify/prevent the incorporation of long-standing Middle Eastern cultural traditions concerning women into Israelite society.

Jeff, Jeff, Jeff...this is not possible. In 2007 Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told the students at Columbia University that there are no homosexuals in Iran. Get it? They don’t have a problem with it because there aren’t any.

[nickcarraway]

How did that come up on such a show?

[Gen.Blather]

“You can’t say anything bad about Islam even if you are gay, and they are in the process of throwing you off of a rooftop.”

I saw a video of Iranians lifting gay men by ropes around their necks using a crane. What struck me was how calm they all were. One of them spotted somebody he knew and turned away so they could see his bound hands and he waved to them. I noticed the same thing in a beheading video. Either they are drugged or they have the philosophy that it will be okay because everything that happens is Allah’s will.

In the old days you went to the fair to see a freak show. Now you just turn on the TV.

However, a pillar of entertainment is the freak show.

[oldvirginian]

“How did that come up on such a show?”

You do know RuPaul’s Drag Race has nothing to do with motorsports.

RuPaul is a homosexual drag queen from San Diego who has a successful show on LOGO and VH1 about (mostly) homosexual men dressing garishly as women.

His reaction will be the answer. Will he fold or hang tough? My money’s on folding.

[FreedomForce]

Goldblum tends to play goofy characters, but he has never seemed stupid to me. I suspect he knew what he was doing.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

No, in some interview he said that he knew he was pretty dumb, and that he considered himself fortunate that acting didn’t require him to do more than remember a few lines at a time.

[Glad2bnuts]

Did she answer? This is a question that was many times asked to Christians who appeared in the news or on shows.

[eyeamok]

No one answered the question.

They have no choice and will Never answer a question like that. If they were to answer it, they would have to look at themselves in the mirror, and they would be forced to come to the realization, that the evil they have been warning about their whole lives, is actually Themselves!!!
