    Default Should I or shouldn't I?

    So a 'friend' gave me this, and more or less "demanded" that I read and learn things for myself. It honestly and truthfully did not feel like a request in any shape or form. Quite frankly, it was more like a request to read it and convert me all in one.

    So, I'm thinking of converting this into material for my fire this evening. It's 42 right now and gonna drop to about to the freezing level overnight. Plus, I just love a fire overall.

    I don't like trying to be converted, but it's also not like someone came and left it at my front door.

    Abbey. You mean these:
    According to Sharia law (see links for details):

    • Theft is punishable by amputation of the hands (Quran 5:38 - includes graphic image).
    • Criticizing or denying any part of the Quran is punishable by death.
    • Criticizing Muhammad or denying that he is a prophet is punishable by death.
    • Criticizing or denying Allah is punishable by death (see Allah moon god).
    • A Muslim who becomes a non-Muslim is punishable by death (See Compulsion).
    • A non-Muslim who leads a Muslim away from Islam is punishable by death.
    • A non-Muslim man who marries a Muslim woman is punishable by death.
    • A woman or girl who has been raped cannot testify in court against her rapist(s).
    • Testimonies of 4 male witnesses are required to prove rape of a female (Quran 24:13).
    • A woman or girl who alleges rape without producing 4 male witnesses is guilty of adultery.
    • A woman or girl found guilty of adultery is punishable by death (see "Islamophobia").
    • A male convicted of rape can have his conviction dismissed by marrying his victim.
    • Muslim men have sexual rights to any woman/girl not wearing the Hijab (see Taharrush).
    • A woman can have 1 husband, who can have up to 4 wives; Muhammad can have more.
    • A man can marry an infant girl and consummate the marriage when she is 9 years old.
    • Girls' clitoris should be cut (Muhammad's words, Book 41, Kitab Al-Adab, Hadith 5251).
    • A man can beat his wife for insubordination (see Quran 4:34 and Religion of Peace).
    • A man can unilaterally divorce his wife; a wife needs her husband's consent to divorce.
    • A divorced wife loses custody of all children over 6 years of age or when they exceed it.
    • A woman's testimony in court, allowed in property cases, carries ½ the weight of a man's.
    • A female heir inherits half of what a male heir inherits (see Mathematics in Quran).
    • A woman cannot drive a car, as it leads to fitnah (upheaval).
    • A woman cannot speak alone to a man who is not her husband or relative.
    • Meat to eat must come from animals that have been sacrificed to Allah - i.e., be "Halal."
    • Muslims are to subjugate the world under Islam (see Quran 9:29 and Palestine Issue).
    • Muslims should engage in Taqiyya and lie to non-Muslims to advance Islam.
    • The list goes on.

    I'd worry a little about this one.

    The reason is that you have published a picture of yourself holding this book, which could get onto Twitter too easily and into the news. You have a long-running discussion forum and so are a semi-public figure, at least ----

    Watch what you say and do. You don't want to go viral and get on CNN about this.

    If it were me, I'd put it in the attic for a few years, then throw it out when everyone has forgotten about it, without talking about it.

    Yeah, ain't it? LOL I told you all I was a dirty bastard!! I detest shaving. I try to go without. So it will build up, then I neaten it up and what not. Then at about the 1 1/2 week part it gets itchy and I have no choice but to shave it, and then repeat the process. I'm an ugly, scruffy, aging, chubby, black eyes, hat wearing piece of dog crap!!

    I honestly haven't tried yet. I did follow up on a few statements, to see how it compared. In other words, a few things of interest, and then look it up in there. My 'friend' claims the translation in this book is the best English version. I don't think that will matter much anyway, as I really don't have much interest anymore. I've read a LOT LOT LOT over the years, likely more than I wanted to know. But I give things a fair shake, and am always willing to learn a little bit more. But, with that said, I really don't think I will learn more, nor want to learn more. This was kind of pushed on me a little, in a weird attempt to convert me, I believe anyway.

    So now it's decision time. I am NOT giving it back, no way no how. I may just 86 it and never think of it again. I may save it in a closet for reference, but I don't trust him or what he gave me. Or I may use it as kindling for my first fire of the year.

    Oh, trust me, I hide it well, and it's much easier to hide when you're the one taking the photos!! I'm like 5'9 and about 10 millimeters on top of that. I was up to as high as 224lbs in like 2011 I think? But then I started eating better and being a much better bum. I am now 172lbs, and I think I am now 5'9 and like 9 millimeters. I think the weight loss made me shrink height too!!

    I don't scare too easily. I really couldn't give a Chihuahua's testicles if people saw my dislike for things that are written in the Quran. Hell, I tell my muslim friends point blank about certain things in there that it's fucked up. They deny, claim it doesn't exist, the verses mean something different and what not. If you bring up the women stuff, alongside of facts about things in the women life in Islam in parts of the world - they will change the subject, claim I'm wrong and what not. They claim the women in Saudi Arabia DO NOT want to vote, DO NOT want to drive and they believe they WANT to wear the veils and all kinds of other crap about women. It's sometimes an awful lot of lies, and I have to keep a straight face - but other times I shove it down some throats.
