I see your point. So by your reasoning the USA should not allow the Iraqi’s to elect their religious leader because he could be a fundamentalist psycho.
Do you want to rethink your answer?
I think you need to not only rethink your answer by change it, you wrote; their religious leader
''COULD BE'' !!!, I dont accept assumptions
COULD BE is not convincing statement.
I think we use the word “Islam” a little to all encompassing? Maybe the answer should be – my interpretation of the Qur’an does not have a problem a woman working and ordering a man what to do?
There is no such thing as personal interpretation of the Noble Quran, the Noble Quran is very clear, those who 'interpret' do so because they want to twist the quran to suit their agenda...Bin Laden is good example.
Islam is the willingful submission to the will of Allah Almighty, Islam is not only a religion, it is a complete way of life....Islam for me is my life, in fact, it is dearer than life itself.
I was born Muslim, I lived Muslim, I will continue to live Muslim and I will die Muslim.
It came about in the 7th century by the greatest man ever set foot on this earth, The last Prophet from God and the seal of messengers, Muhammad ( Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him ).
Was “Islamic culture” around before Mohammed?
What kind of question is that ??
Was it in existance before the Qur’an?
Are you ok ??? Islam came during and after Prophet Muhammad(pbuh ) life.
Is Saudi Arabia Islamic? I mean how do you separate out the Bedouin culture from Islam?
Saudi Arabia try to be Islamic, but the influence of the beduin culture is very strong.
I mean Mohammed was Arabic and Bedouin and Islamic?
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh ) was an Arab, yes, but he was NOT beduin....beduins are those nomadics who roam Arabia, while Prophet Muhammad (pbuh ) was Meccan resident.
In Mohammad’s culture there had been a tradition to have more than one wife.
That's true, they used to have wives and so many misteresses and slaves, wives before Islam used to be inherited from the father to the sons...Prophet Muhammad(pbuh ) came and abolish this barbaric practice.
In Islam there is a tradition to have more than one wife. In the Qur’an a man can have more than one wife (in the OT as well). So (without going into whether it’s moral to have more than one wife – that’s besides the point) how do you separate out the culture of taking more than one wife from Islamic culture from Bedouin culture from Middle Eastern culture in general.
Absouletly wrong, there is no such tradition in Islam, the Noble Quran made it absolutely clear that you wont be fair between more your wives, so ONLY ONE. marrying another wife is conditional and in many cases require the consent of the first wife...this is another topic.
I really don’t think you can. And therefore you must agree that there is no single “Islamic” culture. It really just depends one where one lives.
True, there is no single Islamic 'CULTRUE' but there is
ONE ISLAM.
By your own reasoning, you would also agree that Muslims should not be allowed into any Buddhist country – that is unless they accept that Buddha as the true way.
You are mixing things up here, christians and jews and hindus and Banana worshippers ARE allowed into Saudi Arabia, they are NOT allowed into the magnificent holy cities of Mecca and Medina.
Beside, we Muslims DONT demand the right to visit holy buddhists places and we expect the same in return.
Or into the America’s unless they accept that the Native American spirits are their guides in the after life? Or in Europe unless they accept that the true prophet’s end with Jesus OR that Thor is the greatest god of the pantheons.
As I said above, you are very confused about this matter, non-muslims are allowed into Saudi Arabia ( hundred of thousands of westerners and NON MUSLIMS ) are living and working there, they are not allowed into the holy cities of Mecca and Median.
We Muslim DONT demand to have the right to visit the Vatican for example or this Pagan rock in Australia...etc and so we EXPECT the same in return.
Muslims DONT recognize Hinduism as a divine religion let alone respect it, they consider Shiva (pbuh) a false god, so why the hell I would allow such people into the holy of my holiests?
AND WHO THE HELL IS ASKING HINDUS TO ALLOW MUSLIMS IN ???? WE DONT DEMAND THE RIGHT TO VISIT THEIR TEMPLES, AND WE EXPECT THE SAME IN RETURN...........GOT IT ???????? 
I have. Muslims can be as rational as the next person.
Good Luck......... LOOOOL.
One was from Egypt originally and then migrated to Australia, he worked for an oil company and one day said he got caught wearing a Christian cross around his neck by the morality police and was sentenced to death.
What's a load of BULLSHIT...
The second guy worked in recruitment for an oil company. He said that at night the Saudis would shoot guns at there compound taunting them all night.
Give me a break...this is the sort of FALLACIES you hear on FOX JEWS and the SHITNN...if this is the case how come more and more westerners are coming to live and work in Saudi Arabia ??
He hated it there. BUT he stayed for about a year because the pay was so good. And it has to be to undergo that sort of stress. Again, his story not mine.
And of course, because it is his story, and because he is western, we have to believe him, right ??
Have you been there? Would you prefer to live there over say living in France?
Yes I have been there, Saudi Arabia have some cultural problems specially those moral police and their strict enforcement of the sharia law, but in General, YES, I WOULD RATHER LIVE IN SAUDI ARABIA THAN LIVE IN FRANCE...at least I feel safe in Saudi Arabia, something you dont even dream of in Europe.
Is there a country in the ME that you’d prefer to live in over say Europe?
YES, my beloved dear homeland,
SYRIA
For all it’s faults you have to admit Europe is a hell of a better place and much more tolerant than to live than in the ME?
Not true, I lived in both and I can say that the middle east is far much better place to live in, starting from the weather, to food, to safety..etc.
I know you believe it is wrong of the USA to be in Iraq (me to by the way). Do you agree that it is wrong for people to come into another peoples country/land and take away their land?
It is immoral to invade other people's land and massacre their civilians.
If that were to happen would you agree that they should leave and return to their own land? Much like the Europeans did in America and Australia and Israel or the Arabs did in Egypt, North Africa and Northern Iraq or the Turks in Turkey? Should the Europeans return to Europe the Arabs to Arabia and the Turks to Mongolia? Or is it OK for them to stay - much like the USA in Iraq. A sort of survival of the fittest?
You see, this is moronic statement, there is a difference between INVADING, KILLING and STEALING the land by force ( like what the Israelis did against the palestineans and now their slaves the Americans against the iraqis ) and a peaceful economic migration.
throughout centuries people moved and settled all over the world, shall we send the English back to Germany, because after all the UK belong to the WELSH !!
