Muslim Women Are Lower Priority Than Is Israel's Historic IdolI will try to explain my strong charge against Muslim leaders in the most basic way possible. The chief Israeli Idol that has been worshipped by Jews for centuries has also been their often worshipped idol, fitly named: "Rebellion Against GOD's Authority." Even when Moses led the children of Jacob/Israel out of Egypt, it was rebellion against GOD's authority regarding basic standards of morality that led to their High Priest Aaron molding the Golden Calf for worship in the desert. Skipping past example of rebellion against GOD after example throughout the Old Testament where the Jews consistently rebelled against GOD's authority, brings us to the New Testament. In the New Testament, it is GOD's Messiah who very specifically represents GOD's authority to the Jews. But totally consistent with their decisive historic pattern of rebellion against GOD's authority, the Israeli leaders wickedly manipulated their Roman Occupiers into savagely executing GOD's new Authority on earth, His own now risen Messiah Isa. Islam's Often Calloused Suppression of WomenThere is little room for doubt that An-Nisa 4:157 makes considerably more sense when Muslim leaders do not interpret it in the most literal and simplistic way possible so that it exonerates the Jews from faithfully following their established pattern of rebelling against GOD. They again faithfully followed their evil pattern of rebelling against GOD by murdering His Messiah who explicitly represented His authority on earth. Their cruel, calloused murder of ALLAH's own Messiah should have been no surprise because his calloused murder totally fit the Jews' pattern of steadfastly and consistently rebelling against GOD's authority. But the regrettable bottom line is this. Many of the 50% of Muslim men find it very convenient to accept and even nurture an Islamic culture which deprives the other 50% of Islam, its women, of their basic rights such as freedom from genital mutilation and freedom from honor killing. So Muslim men's vigorous denial that the Israelis murdered ALLAH's Messiah greatly aids many Muslim males such as the Taliban in their unjust exploitation of Muslim girls and women. Israelis Did Murder the Muslim Women's DelivererHow amazingly convenient it has been for Muslim men and bad news for Muslim women, that the one and only man anointed by ALLAH to whom He has given the authority and ability to greatly aid exploited women, has been deprived by Muslim men of his authority from GOD by their denial that he triumphed over both death and the evil of the Jewish political/religous apparatus. The deep irony of the Muslim male's excuse for denying ALLAH's Messiah's power and authority is a very sad self contradictory circumstance. The sad bottom line is that when all is said and done, Muslim men actually prefer to join Jews at their worship of their own wicked idol, named "Rebellion Against GOD's Authority" when they murdered His Messiah. That is, Muslim men become complicit in the Jews' worship of their evil idol by providing a cover story for the Jews so that they appear to be not guilty of the Messiah's murder. Therefore, providing an alibi for the Jew's murder of ALLAH's own Messiah is something Muslim leaders would rather do than to help to improve the negative and downtrodden circumstances in which millions of precious Muslim women courageously live out their lives. For if these Muslim men could finally admit that certain Israeli leaders actually did murder GOD's Messiah, millions of Muslim women would then have a powerful defeater of death fighting for their cause rather than an alleged escapee from death, who would be unable to help them. So until Muslim male leaders prove that they do truly care about Muslim women enough to acknowledge that ALLAH's Messiah was indeed murdered by guilty Israeli leaders, millions of struggling Muslim women will continue to suffer without ALLAH's now living Messiah being present in their midst in order to help them. State Approved Crimes Against Girls"The Week" magazine, as its name implies, is published 52 times per year. But in the current issue of 4/24/09, there are not one but two articles that vividly reveal government approved crimes against girls in two Middle Eastern Muslim nations. The first involved an 8 year old girl in the quite modern nation which has close ties to the U.S., the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The second nation, Afghanistan, had crimes which involved multiple murdered school girls living in their much more rugged nation. Regarding Saudi Arabia, "the United Nations as well as several human rights groups protested after a Saudi court refused to nullify the marriage of an 8-year old girl to a 47- year old man. The court said the marriage was legal as long as the husband did not consummate the marriage until the girl reached puberty." The ruling of the court delaying consummation of course made the depravation of the rights of the very young girl somewhat more tolerable. But assuming that her puberty would occur at age 13, this would result in a 51-year old man married to a 13-year old girl which does not appear to be at all fair, just or humane. Even with this new ruling, this still treats the young girl more as a sex object than as a valued female human being. The second article about Afghanistan females was more clear-cut in its government tolerated brutal criminality. "The Taliban and other Afghan extremists attacked 256 schools in that country last year for the crime of teaching girls, killing 58 children and teachers." The Boston Globe My point in citing these two separate crimes against girls which were tolerated by the government in these two very different Muslim countries, is this. If a few internationally respected Muslim leaders will demonstrate the courage and intellectual honesty to acknowledge the following fact, this kind of sexist savagery against Muslim girls and women will soon change. But it must first be openly acknowledged that An-Nisa 4:157 was never intended to be understood in the most simplistic, literal way, that it presently is. When this enormous breakthrough occurs regarding this one key verse, multiple tragic situations for girls and women will soon become a bad memory of the past in multiple Muslim nations. For as soon as the reality will be accepted that ALLAH's Risen Messiah is now alive (An-Nisa 4:158) and is willing and available to be a defender of abused Muslim girls and women, destructive, inhumane attitudes and hurtful activities will begin to melt away into the past. Because, by ALLAH's Might and Wisdom, He raised His Bethlehem man, born of a virgin (4:157, 158) up alive to be available to aid us all. And especially will he compassionately aid exploited, vulnerable, Muslim girls and precious Muslim women. Is the Quran's Messiah a Winner or Loser?Yes, the different Sunni and Shia nations of Islam have unanimously and unwisely chosen to unite in excusing the Jews for murdering the Quran's Messiah. Thus, Islam, due to its united lack of confidence in ALLAH's Messiah, have labeled him a loser Messiah rather than a winner, an escapist Messiah rather than a courageous Messiah. So he is confined against his will to being an observer of exploited Muslim women instead of being ALLAH's Messiah who will be strong to deliver Muslim women in each male superior Muslim nation. But this present status quo regarding women is how these particular men want it. Because it is the exploited Muslim women who pay the great price for not having a victorious Messiah/Deliverer. It is not the men who pay that costly price. But can you imagine how improved the conditions would be for all Muslim women in all the Islamic nations if Muslim men would have the courage to make just one significant change: If Muslim men could force themselves to stop worshipping with Jews the "Idol of Rebellion against ALLAH". For the Jews consistent worship of this evil idol led directly to their vicious murder of ALLAH's Messiah, a true murder which the Muslims are still falsely claiming that this murder did not occur by their false, distorted, simplistic understanding of An-Nisa 4:157. No Male Cares!But does any Muslim male truly care about the welfare of Muslim women while they are busy playing a virtual game of defending the Jews against the most hideous crime of murder that any nation ever committed? It is a shame that Muslim men are allowed to use a simplistic, wrong interpretation of the Holy Quran's verse 4:157 as a cover for preventing ALLAH's now living Messiah from liberating Muslim women who are an exploited 50% of Islam. Significantly, fifty percent is a much larger percentage of the total population of Islam than were the 10% of the U.S. population who were severely exploited American slaves. But in contrast to the exploited Muslim women, the American slaves were at least partially liberated from their exploitation by their deliverer, through Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. But until Islam changes its interpretation of that one key verse that makes the Quran's Risen Messiah a loser rather than a winner, an escaper rather than an advocate, the Taliban of Pakistan and Afghanistan and the money of the Wahabi men of Saudi Arabia and the men of certain other nations will deny girls and women a human right that ALLAH has provided them. They deserve to have the right to have the Quran's Risen Messiah deliver them from their virtual slavery to the exploitive, false ideas of certain uncaring, calloused Muslim men, through their wrong understanding of one precious and profound verse in the Holy Quran. Do most male Muslim leaders truly love Israeli's Evil Idol of Rebellion more than they love Muslim women? No! I don't think so. But this is the hurtful, dark message that these leaders communicate to ALLAH when they interpret 4:157 in a wrong, superficial and simplistic way that defends Israeli leaders from the murder they definitely committed against the Holy Quran's Risen Messiah. Thus they callously prevent Muslim women from receiving assistance from their now Living, Compassionate, Virgin-born, Risen Messiah Man from nearby Bethlehem. back to "Late 2007 - 2009" page __________________________________________________________ _________________________________________ __________________________ _____________ |
