1. I don't think any of you nomads will burn in hell, I think you are decent and kind people who deserve nothing but the best. 2. I was hoping this thread would turn into an intellectual debate, but it seems it has become a space for ridicule. 3. I believe love is stronger than everything which exists in this world, religion included, and I will marry whoever God intends me to marry, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, or whatever. 4. I think the time has finally come for me to leave.

I've known for a very long time what the Islamic ruling is, and I don't care. I care about the opinions of fellow nomads.

lol who do you take me for? Of course I know it, and disagree with all my heart. The thread is up now.

Well, here's the thread, as promised. Hopefully we can engage in some wall-of-text battles. What are some of your opinions on interreligious marriage, more specifically that of a Muslim woman to a non-Muslim man? Obviously, I think it's all right, and should be allowed. Small rant: In a recent thread, the Cordoba Project was described, a sort of cross-cultural center near Ground Zero meant to help Muslims reach out to non-Muslims and create harmony between New Yorkers. My question is, how is this harmony going to work if male members of one group are forbidden female members of another group? "Yeah, man, I love you and everything but you sure as hell can't marry my sister. Unless you convert, of course." OK, end of small rant. My solution: If I should ever decide to marry a Muslim woman, and a Muslim woman should ever decide to marry me, I have a very simple solution. I will kidnap at gunpoint a priest from my country and a qadi or just a regular Muslim of impeccable quality, and make them perform a joint marriage Now, let loose the hounds!

Ibti, please join me in the adjacent thread

Where's C&H?
