Christians should marry Muslims to tackle Islamophobia, says peer

Ho ho ho, NO. No, no, no, no.
Islam is a perverted, sexist, violent religion.
Muslims are a billion times worse than Christian gender complementarians, who regularly and ignorantly advise Christian wives to stay in abusive marriages and “submit” even more to an abusive Christian loser husband (based in large part on sexist interpretations of the Bible – see John “Christian wives should endure being smacked around for the night” Piper, Christian author and former preacher, as one example).
Muslims are into honor killings (where they will kill a female even over trivial issues, e.g., for dating a Christian, dating an American, or for totally unjustifiable, victim-blaming ones, such as a woman being a rape victim).
Muslims are into FGM (female genital mutilation).
Some Muslims shoot little girls in the head for wanting an education.
Do an internet search for the phrase “Boko Haram” and look up stories on Malala Yousafzai, who was a girl shot in the head by Muslims for wanting to go to school (see (Link): Boko Haram on Wiki, (Link): Malala_Yousafzai biography on Wiki).

On a tangent here, I love that this is my blog and I can say what I want.
I so tire of the “#NotAllMuslims #NotAllMuslims!” propaganda garbage I see from left-wingers on other sites whenever crimes and sins of Muslims are brought up.
I know, Lori Liberal, (you even have a dopey “COEXIST” bumper sticker on your car), that your best friend “Muslim Moe” who lives in Podunk, USA right next door to you, is a super nice guy, but unfortunately, 90% of his Muslim compatriots around the world hate Christians, Hindus, atheists, Jews, Americans, Brits, and regularly try to slit our throats or blow us up.
Sunni Muslims hate Shia Muslims and vice versa, so you have Muslims killing each other, too. The fun and hilarity never stops with these guys who believe in the Koran.
I don’t know if the guy suggesting in this article that Christians marry Muslims considers himself a Christian or not. I think he is. He mentions that several of his family members are Christians who married Muslims.
First of all, Christians are not “Islamophobic,” but the majority of Muslims are “Christophobic,” that is, Muslims hate Christians and murder them, and their religious texts tell them to do so.
Secondly. This sure flies in the face in the non-stop “be not unequally yoked” stuff I heard from other Christians growing up.
There were several guys I could have dated or married in my past, (some very good looking and financially well off), but they were not Christians. I was a Christian at the time and used to believe strongly in “be not yoked,” so I did not give those guys a chance (I would now, though).
Given that many Christians (and hypocritically, usually the ones who are now age 55, married at 17, who met their spouse while in high school or Sunday school at church) lecture the rest of us Christians singles who over over age 30 and still single, to hold out only for a Christian spouse, this whole view that “Christians should marry Muslims,” coming from some Christians now, is quite odd.
Given that many devout Muslim men are abusive, sexist, murdering weasels (yes, take your “#Not All Muslims” view point and cram it where the sun don’t shine: #Most-Muslim-Men-Are-Abusive-Violent-Maniacs-Yes-Indeed-They-Are), it is dangerous.

Lord Scott, a former Supreme Court Judge, cited his own family – in which two of his four children married Muslims – as an example of how interfaith families can thrive.
The peer, who sits as a crossbencher in the Lords, made the comments during a debate on how to improve relations between the Muslim community and other faith groups in the UK.
He said: “Of my two sons one has become a Muslim and of my two daughters one of those has become a Muslim, and I have 12 lovely grandchildren, seven of whom are little Muslims.
… “I do just wonder that if an improvement is needed between the faith groups, one way of promoting that might be to encourage interfaith marriages.”
According to Christian theology, Jesus Christ is the only way to God (see John 14:6).
Ergo, his daughters who have renounced Christ for Allah (quoting Jesus: “But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.” (link to that)), and his sweet, cute little baby Muslim grand children, when they get to whatever the age of accountability is, will go to Hell when they die, unless they convert at some point.
That’s not so “lovely,” there, fella. Sacrificing their souls to be politically correct isn’t lovely. What a loon.
I’m not on board with the “equally yoked” teaching anymore, but if there was one type of Non-Christian I would never marry, Muslim would be it.

I had been reading some posts from your blog for awhile and a few of them about unequally yoked marriages stood out to me because I often had been thinking, “what does she think about marrying a Muslim, then? Does the blogger think this is OK?”
I am very happy to see that you do NOT think it is OK. I am the product of a Muslim-Christian marriage and to make a long story short, as much as you need to be careful about complementarian Christian males, Muslim males are NOT, NOT the answer if you cannot find a Christian guy. Even if the Muslim guy turns out to be a nice guy, their religion is EFFED UP. I was HOPING you felt this way too and I am RELIEVED. I had wanted to ask you for awhile what your opinion was on that, but it seems like my question has been answered. I hate what goes on in Christianity today; God only knows, but for heaven’s sake, if you want to leave Christianity, just don’t take Islam as the alternative! You will regret it for the rest of your life.
Hello, and thanks for the comments. I’m always surprised to get a comment from someone who says they’ve been reading the blog for awhile. It feels weird to know I have some regular readers. Anyway.
If a woman chooses to marry a Muslim guy, she’s an adult and can marry whomever she pleases, but knowing what I know about their religion, I don’t think it would be safe. I personally would not want to marry one, and yes, I know that “not all” Muslims bomb people and so forth.
I would think even the male Muslims who do not become suicide bombers, and so forth, likely harbor some very harsh, sexist, and/or abusive attitudes towards women, based on their religious upbringing and familial values.
Ironically, I think a woman would probably be a tad safer marrying a man who was raised Muslim but who later became agnostic or atheist, and rejected the entire religion.
I mean, it would depend. I can also see how if such a guy ditched Islam, he might still have some sexist attitudes towards women left over from that belief set. I just would not want to take the chance on it, so I would steer clear of even dating a Muslim guy to start with.
Christians have their hang ups about women and marriage, too, I realize, and I blog on it from time to time.
I think most Christians at least realize that wife abuse is wrong but out of the ones who realize that, their sexist biblical interpretations keep women trapped in those abusive marriages, because they give them lousy advice such as “stay in the marriage and endure the abuse, just keep praying for the guy, and submit to him even more”.
Most books/blogs I’ve read about abusive men say such men never change – the more the woman tries to submit to the abusive spouse, the more entitled he feels to keep on abusing her.
Most experts advise women to leave/divorce the guy (but of course leaving an abuser has to be done carefully, because abusive men become more dangerous when the woman tries to leave – a lot of women are murdered by their husbands if he discovers them trying to leave).
But yeah, I think sexism in Islam is deeper and even more dangerous than the “gender complementarian” variety I’ve seen in Christianity – with some exceptions.
I have read about SGM and IFB type churches (these are Christians) who blame girls for being raped, even girls as young as four, but this sort of issue seems more prevalent among Muslim communities.
Anyhow, thank you for the comments and reading the blog. I hope I don’t sound too ranty most of the time. 🙂
