I've had two Muslim friends, one military and one civilian. The only thing I noticed about them in day to day life on the base was their aversion to pork. One politely asked me to not eat pork around him, he couldn't stomach the smell. The other one asked a chow hall guy to change the spoon before he dipped out his food, because it had touched a pork product.

LIFE SHATTERING BEHAVIOR THAT CAN NOT BE TOLERATED>
much funnier than the buried alive story. chuckle chuckle!

You're missing the fact that this behavior is accepted in mainstream muslim cultures. You may see this guy as some crazy muslim cleric, but to mainstream muslim culture, he is accepted as the norm.

Thank you so much for understanding! the problem is this is acceptable in that culture, and will never change. This practice is mostly accepted into this culture, and is accepting of this practice, and it will not change, you cannot change the way those people view things. They have a warp sense of morals.

Continue on with your apathy. Cover your eyes and pretend that this is not part of Islamic culture.
whatyousay, your absoutely right. This is there teachings, is teaching that it is ok to rape and beat your wife, and is widely accepted in islam. I am absoutely appalled, and thoroughly disgusted, by their lack of decent human rights, for there women, and children. It is hard to cover one's eyes, and pretend, when we know this is happening.

Please do not presume you know how we on this forum think, because you are just speculating only. Oh we don't care at all, don't you see the ourage that we the American People are feeling, do you think, we are merely making this up, for the hek of it. Your wrong. We do care, but no we don't understand, their warp sense of morals, and where they seem to place there values. When they seem to think this way, and refuse to change, this is a Cancer, because, this is beyond Human. We simply cannot understand how one's religion could condone, this evilness. Don't presume you know how we on this forum think, for we each have our own minds. Think the way you do, but we have the freedom to each think the way we want, and you whether you like it or not, have to get use to this.

Come on now.
It's not like every Muslim guy is out there beating his wife.

I can't believe you call yourself liberal but you share the same anti-Muslim views as many right-wingers.

askMuslims.com: Does (Islam) allow wife beating?

Just like in Christianity, many people take many different interpretations of the holy book.

It might carry more weight if instead of politely requesting an apology that the cleric be held legally liable, with a prison sentance for inciting violence, for each act by any men with association to his mosque who physically abuse any female.
