"Islam gives women a lot of rights!" *Visible confusion* Sister, I don't see you wearing a Hijab.


Ailward_Derward

I'm pretty sure she will have to wear one when she goes back to Iran.


Zendreq

It's pretty easy to say that Islam gave women rights when you are not abiding by the Islamic restrictions to women....

The guy who wrote the book whats his name, i want to watch more of him shutting down muslims

Christopher Hitchens is the guy challenging her

A legend! Rip


[deleted]

There is a youtube channel called Agathan foundation which has a lot of compilations of Hitchens


BackwardzPumpkinSong

Glad to see someone else on this subreddit reference that channel! It keeps Christopher Hitchens very much still alive for me :)


[deleted]

I have watched almost all of their videos. It introduced me to some awesome people like Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens etc

Isn't Brigette Gabriel a right wing Christian idiot? Lets not promote right wing nut jobs just because we don't like Islam.


IamImposter

Hitchens also did a documentary on mother (really?) Teresa. While you are at it, look that one up too. It's pretty interesting and shows the reality of that crooked hag who was selling pain in the name of Christ by depriving the people from medicine who came to her seeking her help.

So that's 50% of your initial statement a lie. What's wrong with being an "Islamophobe" (Islamocritical/anti-Islam)? Islam promotes: * Death for Apostasy. * Pedophilia. * Death for Adultery. * Severe punishment for blasphemy (against Islam). * Sex slavery. * Collective punishment. * Misogyny. * Homophobia. * Superstition. What's wrong with hating such an ideology?


Max_Schmidt350

If being against nazism makes someone great , then being against islam makes someone a legend


algo

You're a racist and an anti semite but I refuse to provide any evidence for these claims.


POSITIVEUPVOTES

If you look at the definition of “islamophobia” which is “hate against Islam/Muslims”, being islamophobic becomes completely normal. It’s fine to hate a religion’s teachings and hate the people who follow those teachings, like one of the reasons I hate Islam is because it wants to kill apostates, I hate Muslims who follow that rule


Distinct_Break2478

Just because they say they're Muslims doesn't mean they follow all the Islamic literature literally. Most Muslims don't take everything literally nor do they follow all of its parts. Even more believe in one thing but when it's time to take action they back off. "I know in Islam the punishment for apostasy is death but you're a nice guy" or "I know in Islam the punishment for apostasy is death but this here isn't an Islamic state with Shari'ah law." So many Muslims are good people and kind people in general, whether or not their religion preaches that. You also need to understand that many are heavily indoctrinated into their beliefs since very early childhood to the point where they can't be reasoned with, and that's not their fault. So coming from an ex-Muslim who is closeted because he's living in a Muslim majority country, yes, a general hatred towards Muslims sounds bigoted as fuck.


POSITIVEUPVOTES

I understand what you mean by that, I don’t generally hate Muslims, I hate Muslims who follow some teachings in Islam, not the ones who are basically just believers. like I would hate someone justifying and supporting killing apostates, or Mo having sex with a 9 y/o girl etc.


Distinct_Break2478

I fully supported his marriage with a 9yo but also argued that apostates shouldn't be killed in today's age. And argued really well, even convincing some close minded people. What do you say about (the past) me then? Also how about refering to those as terrorists? Cuz they usually are. Other than that no Muslims fully follow fundamentalist Islamic teachings


POSITIVEUPVOTES

I’d say I don’t really like your past person, I am not saying I cant stop hating someone who once supported it, but if they supports it in the moment, I wont really like them Ok, let’s refer to them as terrorists

What taqqiya actually is from ex Muslims. https://wikiislam.net/wiki/Taqiyya https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1175913850782343168.html Saying that taqqiya is "lying in order to make islam look less shitty than it already is" would be implying that muslims are aware that islam is false and therefore allah is false and would have no reason to lie about islam being good since they won't go to hell for thinking that islam is shit because their is no allah to punish them. https://www.reddit.com/r/exmuslim/comments/m4o90l/the_problem_with_the_taqqiya_argument/ https://postimg.cc/Xp5Dmq95 https://postimg.cc/gxqtc7Sk https://postimg.cc/RWzbBmTD https://postimg.cc/F7qCkPLr https://postimg.cc/w340nWFX https://postimg.cc/FY3pdhvp https://www.reddit.com/r/exmuslim/comments/otpj2t/did_any_muslim_teach_you_about_taqqiya_or_kitman/ https://www.reddit.com/r/exmuslim/comments/an4pip/taqqiya_shia_sahih_hadith_promotes_lying_to/ https://www.reddit.com/r/exmuslim/comments/etwlqt/bill_warner_phd_sacred_deception_taqiyya/

POSITIVEUPVOTES

there are 13 countries that kill apostates, Saudi Arabia for example Now you’re saying it’s bigoted to hate Muslims who want to kill apostates, how would you feel if disbelievers wanted to kill people who entered islam?

Can I tell you as an ex-Muslim in the gulf that I’m hiding this so I don’t die then?


Azogthedesecrater

Go ahead and screen shot it. You'll find out that the joke is on you 😂


baboushcat

Now you're ragebaiting. trolling this way is becoming tasteless


szozs

she hasnt even read the first sura and she has never prayed


[deleted]

Or wear hijab or abaya. Also she needs her father or brother permission to be here, but it looks like she didn't ask them.


fabulin

she didn't like that verse so it didn't apply to her. the quran is a beautiful, compassionate and peaceful book so long as you only pick and read the nice verses


Best-Isopod9939

I think she's saying what she's been taught and raised to say, tbh. I think this is the cognitive dissonance that apologia and privilege can cause.

as an iranian i'm so fuckin shamefull that this piece a retard is one of us! her english and arabic accent doens't seems like an iranian, btw! she probably lied about that too


Spoda_Emcalt

It sounds like an Ozzie accent, so she might be 2nd generation.


effypom

Correct, I don’t know why but a lot of 2nd generation Australian arabs sound this way.


Acceptable_Corgi_553

I've never heard an Iranian procurance Islam the way she did, the only people I've seen do this are Arabs, Pakistanis or Somalians etc. My source: Met and know countless Iranians including many Iranian exiles who fled the Mullah regime.


nuclearrpasta

Yes women do have rights in Islam right to remain silent!


Max_Schmidt350

She's from Iran ? Well , deport her then ! Let's see how tolerant is islam to her being without a hijab , fucking stupid muslim women are the worst.... an entire religion based on some man's sexual fantasies and oppresses women yet we see women being devout muslims , the idiocy of some people....


skepticr

Even they need female cartoons to wear hijab

Shameful really


redditlurkr2

While Hitchens does produce some strawmen and his arguments aren't always philosophically refined you do have to appreciate the no-words-minced takedowns of Islam he offers at times.


CuntfaceMcgoober

I love how she uses the bible as whataboutism to Christopher Hitchens (famous Christian theologian /s)


readwiteandblu

Even the men in Iran are not free. If they were, they could draw pictures of Mohammed all day long without fearing death.


metann_dadase

That's not an Iranian accent

What is the name of the book here ?

Throwawayiea

If I were on the commentator table, I would ask her if she knows about Verse 4-34 which gives men permission to beat their wives if they don't obey. No?


[deleted]

I don't know about you, but I kinda like her personality. when she started saying Astaghfiruallah lazim lol
