Hawkmoon, Where did you get the 8 million figure from ? Message 16456210 I guess it is old data <1990> and you may be right... One of the major problems the world faces is that the moderate moslems are not prepared to go against the radical moslems. They will privately agree that radicals and fundamentalists are wrong, even curse them, but they will never overtly do anything to rectify the problems.... That is why the religion remains 'in the hands of' the fundamentalists.

After all, we have some 8 million muslims living here in the US and we don't see them declaring their wives and children are property I have a great idea. Why dont we have an exchange program. To start with we take in all the Afghanis that are stranded at the borders of Pakistan and other countries trying to escape the US attack. Once they live here in the capitalist system and the women get educated, they go back and spread the word. And we bring in more Afghanis, maybe even of the Taliban type. Ultimately they all see this system, the women get aggressive and refuse to be property and refuse to let their children die for allah. We could have a revolution of the capitalist type.
