"Most other Muslim states do not implement sharia to the extent of rating a woman as worth half a man in court. Iran does."

But, how many goats is one worth? More than in Saudi Arabia? Isn't THAT the true measure of a woman in such places?

Nadine,

Surely with your knowledge in all Islamic history, how could you forget Sharia law in Pakistan during Zia ul Haq's time?

Just shows that you are consciously ignoring evidence...

Also, ignoring the fact that Zia was actually installed to help islamify Pakistan so that a cheap army of recruits could be sent to Afghanistan to fight the Russians.

>In November 1983, Zia signed a "Law of
Evidence" Ordinance whereby the statuts of woman is reduced to
half that of a man in terms of her ability to bear witness in court.
This law also makes her testimony inadmissible in cases of rape.
It also states that the murder of a woman does not warrant the
same penalty as that of a man.>
