So do you agree with the muslim cleric who said modestly women are 'uncovered meat'?
And then went on to state that women are the ones at fault in a sexual assualt.
"If you take out uncovered meat and place it outside on the street, or in the garden or in the park, or in the backyard without a cover, and the cats come and eat it. . . whose fault is it, the cats or the uncovered meat? The uncovered meat is the problem,"

read his statements. women wont be sexually assaulted if they covered up and stayed at home! Even as a man I find this offensive.
I think this guy is the reason why westerners find it hard to accept the ways of muslims. I am not against Islam or Muslims, but he should be shot. If he doesnt like the western world, the caves await in the middle east.
D, If you read my details above you would see that I am shocked. I am supportive of a womens choice to choose
powderblue1981; he doesnt like the west because it is unsafe for women...? no, I think he is giving rapists an excuse. I am surrounded by women and dont believe I should rape them because I can see an arm and some leg. I have control, and it comes from choice. women, just like men, should be allowed to chose what to wear, free from perverts.
Am I a terrorist? perhaps... but my target isnt women or children.

I see where this cleric has made other statements as well and then apologized and backtracked. This cleric does represent Muslims in Australia.
I'm conflicted though. On one hand, I see the offensive statement. On the other hand, I see a possible difference in religion...I respectfully allow others to have their religion...I don't have to agree with it or "shoot" someone over it. If the men AND women believe that, who am I to tell them it is wrong for them to believe that? Question is, do the women have the choice to believe it or are they totally suppressed?

I extremely have strong motives to trust, certain. Western values can stay in team spirit with Muslim faith, in concepts. in actuality that there is a huge form of Muslims residing contained in the western custom and there aren't any stated incidents that Muslims are growing wild and are in charge of committing this heinous act, utilising that cleric perspectives as justification. incredibly the sexual offenders record bears exceedingly low form of Muslim sex offenders. in my opinion, Muslims do appreciate western values. It develop right into a personal opinion of a non secular cleric, which won't be able to be shared through absolutely everyone. remember that regularly the non secular clerics from all religions are far better orthodox. e.g Church stand on gay marriage and so on. when you're extremely asking that would Western custom and Muslim custom harmonise themselves? my answer is, no. they're diverse, yet in a innocuous way.

COVERED UP AND STAY AT HOME! she should be covered up when she goes out! Women in Islam are not prohibited from going out alone as long as she is dressed up decently.
The problem is when a man gets the sexual desire looking at one girl then go rape another :(
I believe as blunt and insensitive his example was, he is right.
If you are a man who wants women to get all dressy for you in the street Islam will not be fun for you!
Shooting someone for expressing his opinion is another thing?! espcially if he meant well and to protect women! are you a terrorist?
He doesn't like the western world because it's not safe for women.
