It's also a fallacy to group all religions under one banner and claim that they all say the same. Even among what you call "organized religion", while there is some overlap between say Islam and Judaism/Christianity, once you start looking at things deeper, you'll see how Islam comes out different, and as a Muslim, I'd say on top.
When religions like Islam, Judaism, and Christianity heavily control mixing between the genders, it's for a reason. Once the boundaries broke down and the so called "sexual revolution" took hold, it was only a matter of time.
The reason of course, is that the natural desire of humans, as well as the influence of Satan, will cause things to end up badly, as we've seen time and time again. Wasn't there the "metoo" movement that we saw?
I have not seen any Muslim scholar declare men as defacto "predators".
Secondly, what or who is your authority that people doing what they want as long as it doesn't hurt anyone is a valid generalization to make for all actions?
I agree that companies should be forced to abide by the local laws and norms.
The Copts exist today because of the Muslims, this is a fact, even if you try to twist the meaning of what I wrote. They are to be treated well, and with dignity, and their rights preserved.
Secondly, I don't see what makes them "second class citizens", not to mention that even wikipedia acknowledges discrepancies in the points they mention.
As a matter of fact, several Jewish and Christian historians and figures clearly expressed that they would rather live under a proper Islamic rule as it offers them better quality of life compared to secular modernity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bc6yXYR01Vg&t=6s
We see what's coming, we see how things are unfolding in the rest of the world, so taking preventative action is only the smart and rational thing to do. You might not agree with it, but these are our culture and norms, and we've survived for over 1,400 years now.
Secondly, who gave the right to non-Muslim countries to enforce what they think onto conservative Muslim societies? This is literally continued colonization.
In many times, the Wisdom behind such orders is made apparent to us. As we see here (and historically, as per the accounts in the Quran about Prophet Lot Peace be upon him), these groups will not stop at just what's in the bedroom. Today we see indoctrination and outright hostility toward anyone who disagrees with them, causing societal instability.
> Arabs are first mentioned in Biblical and Assyrian texts of the ninth to fifth centuries BC where they appear as inhabiting part of Syria. Proto-Arabs are presumed to have originated from what is now modern-day northern Arabia, Jordan and southern Syria. Over time, Arabs spread further out sometimes replacing previously spoken Semitic languages.
Yeah, definitely biased and incorrect opinion. Are you aware that these tenants are not just in Christianity, but also in Islam and overlap with Judaism? That alone is way over 50% of the world's population.
> their savior was crucified
Not everyone who believes in God believes that Jesus Peace be upon him was crucified.
> The amount of life lost
Compared to what? The number of lives lost due to secular and/or atheist people like Stalin, Mao, Hitler, etc. are orders of magnitude more than any religious wars combined.
> and the intellectual stagnation stemming from these religious fanatics
Which religious fanatics? Are you aware that many of the things we take for granted today stem back to discoveries made during the Islamic Golden age?
