| "The holy book Qur'an does not mention anywhere about the execution or killing of human beings on the basis of their sexuality. They may have picked it up from Leviticus 20:13, since they consider Moses to be a prophet just as Mohammed was. "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both... |

| Firearms may be the most popular homicide weapon in Canada (34%), but the second most popular is not sharp objects(28%), it is hands, and the occasional foot (30%). So before you get around to knives, do remember to get all those hands and feet out of circulation. |

kaetz kaetz: holy crap! i can't even prove to you my existence!
Well, my expectations for establishing your existence would have to be a bit different, since you're not said to be omnipresent. Were you omnipresent, I'd just look around the room and there you'd be, case closed. |

| Statistically, of women who were subject to attempted rapes which failed, 70% physically resisted. I don't have any figures for those who were raped -- I assume that a smaller percentage resisted, but don't have any concrete stats to back that up. The women who are killed by rapists are under 1%, bu... |

I can't help to think that the Islamic council didn't pass up an oportunity to get rid of an idiot and show their independence and moderation by giving the guy the boot.

| So to Status of Women I will bid a farewell until the next election. What is their most important program to you? I've glanced at their site but am really not familiar with their work.

| You seem to be forgetting - it's not only the "slutty girls" getting raped/assaulted. Grannies in nursing homes and other regular women probably get attacked with greater frequency. In the 1998 survey by the US National Institute of Justice, of the rape victims surveyed, 22% had been rape... |
