All religious dogma is founded in "ancient" times- unless it's a newer cult, like scientology or Mormonism- and even those are modeled on the more ancient religions. All of the religions exalt "believing" and reject free thinking- because free thinkers have doubt, and don't leave all their money to a church. It's true that Islam- like orthodox Judaism, Mormonism and Christianity- has some very problematic tenets regarding women- but it's not like you're going to convince religious believers with logic- that's why they're "the faithful"- they don't do logic. I wish there were no religions, and that all people were rational, but that's not going to happen, and it just pisses off the religious if you call them on their weirdness. So I'm not sure what Maher wants? Infidels "reforming" Islam? Yeah, that's going to work. Pissing off the peaceful masses of Muslims, by denigrating their religion? That always works SO well...
