| Here is the second part of my response to KiwaAK47's rant:
....HOw old was HAGGAR and SARAH when they were married to Abraham???.......
Actually, the Torah DOESN'T dsay, and since you are contending that the marriage of a 6 year old, then consummation at age 9 was common practice for the Arabs, the source I quoted is specific.
As to the number of wives of Moses, easy - 2. One a midianite, the other - possibly - again the Torah is unclear in the Hebrew - an Ethiopian.
...Prophet mohammad did nothing wrong or out of the ordinary for his time...and infact is the one who taught equality of women and the LOVE of women. Before him girls were buried alive. When he came, women were allowed to OWN, INHERIT , DIVORCE and REFUSE MARRAIGE. WOMEN were allowed TO study AND learn TO read AND write AND take part in decision making. A first in History might i add...
Except to institutionalize wife beating :

As to Islam being the first to instutionalize the concepts of female divorce, property rights, and the refusal to wed, I suggest you carefully read the Torah again, since these were written down as laws 2000 years before Mohammed's mother was still gleam in the camel's eye.
You have a very narrow understanding of history- seen thru the prism of a religion that institutionalized the aforementioned wife beating, and tries to eradicate all other religions from its areas of occupation.
..You want sexual perversions, I give you the torah and the old testament...From LOT sleeping with his daughters drunk ( a prophet chosen by god does this????)......
Actually, you got that one a@@ backwards as well, since it was Lot's daughters who got him drunk in order to bear children, since in their view the world had been destroyed, and they thought there were no more men left. They got Lot drunk because they knew he would not willingly consent to sleeping with his daughters.
..to Moses and david and solomon worhsipping idols and sleeping with thousands of wmen and animals.....
Uh yeah -it says that where again? What a moron.
I could live with the number of women.
To be honest, the "sexual perversions" in the Bible make for a good read on a cold night.
Still - bottom line is there's no pedophile as the founder of the Hebrew people - cant say that about Islam with a straight face, can you? there's no pedophile like your pedophile, like no pedophile I know.... as the song says.
..i would ask you kindly to retract this paedphile comment of urs about my prophet as relgion is a sensitive matter...
But you see nothing wrong with trashing and maligning the Jewish religion, right?
..Egyptian achievements in the 20th century:
..Aswan Dam, Media, army, the best and most exstensive surface irrigation systems for agriculture in the world, the oldest arab parliament, the first EVer cinemas and films in the world???..
Aswan Dam - built by the Soviets
Egyptian Army? You mean the one built and subsidized by the Brits? or the one built, trained and subsidized by the Soviets? or the one currently subsidized by the United States?
The 1973 War was NOT a military victory for the Egyptian army, unless you consider not being destroyed again thanks to soviet intervention a victory of some sorts. I do maintain that the crossing of the canal led to the political peace that followed. But the same can be said of Israel- that the war was fought on Egyptian soil, not Israel's, that Israel's crossing to the WEST bank of the Canal FORCED the Egyptian government to make peace, and that the imminent destruction of the Surrounded Egyptian 3rd army was THE cause of the ceasefire.
Media- totally free and not subject to government censorship, right?
Irrigation System- not from the 20th century- the technology has been an Egyptian trademark for millenia - but good
Oldest Arab Parliament - time to get with the 21st century - its been a rubber stamp for decades, going to prove how democratic Egyptian institutions really are- and I'll throw in the Baksheesh for free.
Egyptian Cinema and movies- Not invented there:
Egypt?s movie theater took its first steps in January 1896 when the first film was shown in Alexandria just a few days after the first movie in the world was screened in Paris on December 28, 1895. In Cairo, another film was shown also in January and all films were imported.
