Everyone says they hate the men that women flock to. Do you really think any of those wives, other than perhaps the first, flocked to that guy? Have you ever met a non-destitute women who would flock to being a 2nd wife for a man, much less a 15th wife for a man 50 years her senior? Elroy keeps calling this guy immoral and shameful. Which of the ten commandments are we referring too Elroy? I think slavery is immoral and slave owners should be ashamed. It has nothing to do with any ten commandments. The man should be ashamed of the punishment of a life that he is inflicting upon his upcoming 20 year old next wife. The society should be ashamed that the young women of the society are given zero respect, and are allowed to be treated like slaves for his pleasure. Do you actually believe that a 70 year old man buying 20 year old wives four at a time is neither moral or immoral, it's just something you have no opinion on? Have you got any daughters?

Of course its a lot easier when it fits into the broader hate rhetoric you guys push. Well, Nadine makes some interesting claims that Islamic beliefs include forcing conversion among non-believers, and if they won't convert forcing them to pay some social tax (whatever a dhimmi is??). Do you believe those are misrepresentations of Islamic teachings? If so, it would be interesting to read a counter point argument to them. In other words, go ahead and explain why her allegation that Islam does not respect other cultures is incorrect. We certainly don't want her as the spokesperson for Islamic values and teachings! So go ahead, prove her wrong.
