Ryan ChartrandI am extremely curious to know who is in charge of the “Briefs” section of the Mustang Daily, stating “with a suicide vest strapped under her Muslim robe.” Can someone please explain what a Muslim robe is? I guess you can call sweater and jeans a Christian outfit since that’s my usual outfit and I am a Christian? Amusing.
Brian Eller, I’ll keep this short and sweet. Please do not speak as if you are in any way credible to analyze the religious teachings of Islam. Sure, there are radical Muslim people, just like there are radical Christians and Jews. That does not mean there is such a thing as radical Islam, but simply radical human beings who claim to do unjustifiable acts in the name of Islam.
The government of Saudi Arabia is not only a poor delegate but one that shouldn’t even be considered a representative of true Islam, but an obvious convenient example for your absurd arguments. Myself, along with my Muslim sisters, are indeed allowed to drive, dress how we personally desire, and even vote in the Middle East! Your generalization of Islam, the first religion to allow women to own land, through Saudi Arabia shows how little ammo you have, Eller.
Does Bush, your likely personal idol, portray Christianity in a high demeanor? I considered converting just not to be in the same category as that man. Your concern for gays moves me, but I don’t think Bush would approve of your sudden change of heart.
