Formal logic isn't subjective... There is no "depends on the person" there. Rigid faith is fundamentally, objectively, illogical in several ways... No matter which faith that happens to be.

Religion is used / abused in the process of cultural conditioning (more than ANY other method), there's little point in denying that.

A mind that is set up from birth to accept conditioning...

Organised religion can't be disproven but it is inherently illogical :shrug:. I mean, you can believe in pretty much anything if you want, but the inability to disprove it doesn't make it realistic...

No, but nor do most Muslims. The vast majority of Muslim women in the west wear modern clothing and may or may not cover their hair - many don't even do that.

There are SOME more strict and...

This has absolutely nothing to do with Islam and everything to do with the backlash against feminism from western people. Trump voting, Brexit craving, wish-it-was-still-like-the-old-days fish 'n'...

Because it implies that the majority of Muslims are the "stereotypical tabloid muslim" which is, simply, false. The vast majority of Muslims don't "oppress their women and girls" any more than any...
