Now you are saying it doesn't matter about the intent, it's the effect.
Intent = Quran
Effect = people
If you are saying effect is the problem, which is people, I 100% agree with you.
To be clear, I'm not saying human nature is the problem. I'm saying, regardless of what the scripture says, the result (specifically sharia) is the problem.

Yeah sure. I posted this back on page 8.

Under sharia, women don't have the free will to leave the house or seek employment.

Yeah, I did this already too. Back on page 11, I posted this link (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharia#...by_country.svg) that shows the countries that have fully implemented Sharia and also the countries that partly have it. Just going off two of the countries that fully implement it, Iraq and Iran, you've got over 110 million people. Around half of those would be women - at the very least 50 million.
edit: Hawkes beat me to it.
