I guess our friend is illiterate or just typically ignorant. There is a thread in the religion section as I posted above to discuss the issue.

As for not being religious scholars....why do you need to be a scholar to ask questions or think? Who deemsthese MEN "scholars"? Seems absurd that he will even bring that into my PORK discussion.

Point number two is that not all of us are living in Qatar and last time I checked there was no law about questioning Islam only against proselytizing.

Hmmm- which personality is coming out today?
