Firstly... more liberal apologetic behaviour in favour of muslims from one of my fellow norse... NOT IMPRESSED 
He's the one denying truths in the koran that speak of satanic behaviour in the name of "allah". His prophet was a rapist kiddy fiddler.
I can't criticise islam hedgehog?
Secondly I am now known as:
Nordic Superman
Ok, NS.
My point being, are you sure that haidar is a true Muslim and believes in everything that is written in the Quran?
If he doesn't believe in the premise that the Quran was written by God (using his prophet Muhammed as sort of a "pen"), then
Also, I believe there is little meaning in making haidar responsible for Islam.
Of course, most of what you claim is true.
The problem with Muhammed doing all these things, underage marriages et al, is that God was giving him the Green light for it.
Thus, Muhammed was enlightened by God. And has no excuses for being a pedophile.
Traditions or whatever, but the fact remains, if God was involved in a minor being married to the Prophet...
That's a big problem.
Other big problems are how the Quran have different laws for men and women. Now, the argument could be made that women actually were treated better with the introduction of Quran laws (Sharia).
Still. God wrote the Quran. He could have made women equal if he had wanted to.
He didn't.
Bottom line: Islam sucks. Not just in theory either. It's a younger religion than Christianity, so it will need time to become "neutralized".
Christian zealots are at work all over the world though.
