Does anyone doubt that if JWs were to rule the world, stories like this one would be common?

The plight of this young woman under Islamic Sharia law makes the skin crawl.

Frank,
Your link needs to be highlighted better. The one you posted wasn't ALL highlighted...only part.
I copy and pasted the whole link you have and it worked fine
Good info, thanks

Francois, when I read this on the net earlier, I thought the same thing. Class distinctions abound everywhere, don't they?
I think it's that double comma in the link. Here it is again:

Still stops as the double comma. I guess if you want to read this article, you'll have to key in the black part yourselves.
Thanks g.

All I can say is, Islam is an EVIL religion.
Islam is based on the ' Old Testement', the difference between it and fundimentalist Christianity, is no difference at all.
IMHO it is religion that is evil, religion comes from ' man with an agenda '
searcher.

Almost all of the rules and principles that govern being a JW originate within the Old Testament also. If the WT and JW governed the US, you would quickly see this great "theocracy" they talk so much about be reduced to the same religious slavery that's going on in the Middle East.
Strip away their book publishing attributes will reveal that the WT and Islam are both sides of the same coin.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe that story is incorrect. I read on CNN.com that the gov't has since removed that sentence.
Second thing, Islam is not based on just the Old Testament. They are (or so believe) the descendants of Ishmael, the son by means of Abraham and Hagar. They also believe in Jesus as another prophet. Islam is merely a 'continuation' of God's Word. Now whether Islam is a evil religion, imho, can be debated until the end of time. Supposedly they are supposed to be peace-loving. If anyone wants a good book to read, try "Why I Am Not a Muslim" by Ibn Warraq. I couldn't put it down. It makes the current child abuse problem among dubs look like child's play. According to the Koran, Mohammed advocated sex with young boys. That's what Warraq says anyway. I'd hate to imagine God telling Mohammed that it's ok to sodomize young children. But hey, you decide....
