Have you even read what God says about adultery?

If so, why do you refuse to quote Him and justify your fantastic interpretation that God allows s.ex outside of marriage.

I really can't help you if you refuse to look at the verses relating adultery when making a ludicrous claim that God allows s.ex outside marriage.

Maybe it's a contradiction?

“And those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts from illegal sexual acts).

Except from their wives or the (women slaves) whom their right hands possess for (then) they are not blameworthy.

But whosoever seeks beyond that, then it is those who are trespassers”
[al-Ma’aarij 70:29-31]

what is it exactly that you don't understand about this verse? You're perfectly capable to search and read all about the history of slaves during or before the propethic era. And how islam gradually abolished it all, during the life time of Prophet mohammad.

Do you agree or disagree that the Koran allows for concubinage?

Haven't you read what I wrote. Tell us exactly what you don't understand.

To me, you were saying that the Koran does indeed allow concubinage but, because concubines/slaves are treated well in Islam, you followed your tacit admission up by mentioning that slaves are treated 'ok'.

Unless you had some other point in telling me to read 'all about the history of slaves' during Muhammad's lifetime and under the reign of the rightly guided caliphs.

That last sentence does seem to say that Islam abolished slavery - not exactly historically accurate (the West abolished the institution), but that doesn't address whether or not Muslims are allowed to have concubines, if other conditions are met (such as whether or not the slave girls were enslaved through legal means).

But you are the only person we know that condones the Biblical war crime of the Israelites where they enslaved and raped 32,000 virgins after slaughtering in cold blood their families and friends (of the virgins). You are more extreme than the mad mullahs!!

No, I don't support the killing of virgins - and the passage you quoted doesn't say or imply that virgins were raped, that's just a se.xually frustrated mind going into overdrive.

Yes - it is clear you only support the slaughter of non-virgins and the enslavement of virgins. That's what makes you more extreme a religious fanatic than Al Qaeda.

You both justify slaughter in the name of religion - but you agree with keeping the vigins for the use of the Israelites (those who slaughtered)m

What is fascinating is that you seem to think you can convince non-fanatics that you are right!

Bump for eh - on March 1 he posted the same extract from Raymond Ibrahim's writings that he's used to start a new thread on the same topic.

eh - did you think that after a few months Ray's words have gained any more credibility?

But leaving aside Ibrahim's credentials (see article quoted in full in this thread), the issue about Islam and s.ex outside of marriage has been covered in the other posts of this thread.

But let me repeat a pertinent part of a description of Ibrahim's tactics:

And, mind you, you don't need to be an expert on the subject matter, just make sure to quote verses from the Qur'an out of context, cite Osama Bin Laden as the role model of Muslim behavior, bank on tired canaries like "Islam oppresses women," and "Islam was spread by the sword," and other washed out cliches, and voila!

You're a celebrity, a famous author (a rich, famous author, mind you), a Good Samaritan defending the civilized world from the evils of Islam.

Meet Raymond Ibrahim, the latest client of the "Islamophobia cash cow industry."

Sigh.

Snowball, the point of posting the article about Raymond Ibrahim is to address the linguistic evidence that slave women are on par with animals.

You can continue regurgitating your weirdo beliefs of the Koran (funny that most Muslims disagree with you), but this is a new aspect and one that has never been discussed before.

Yes, when you can find a credible expert who agrees with Mr cash cow, let us know.

Why would you think the response to the quotes from Ibrahim would be different if you posted the same extract in a different thread? You can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear.

I suggest you also read the comments to the expose of Ibrahim:
