That's right, folks. You'll be looking at the priest's back as he drones on in the ancient tongue. That's progress, back to the future that was the past. That's when the women were required to attend Mass veiled as well, remember? And why wouldn't that practice be ressurrected as well? Thus the priest can smile with his Muslim brother, contentedly looking down upon the muffled women.

In the meantime, I remind Dr. Jasser that words have commonly accepted meanings. Don't try to jam disparate concepts like Islam and democracy together. You have written about the dangers of mixing politics and religion, but again you know damn well that in Islam they are inextricably intermixed, and the policy is to make the world Islam. Muslims need to make clear statements about giving up notions of conquest and about the need for an Islamic Enlightenment, in which Muslims question everything. The rest is either hand-waving or, worse, taqiyya.

But Jasser amps it up as if it means something. He, too, knows damn well that millions of Muslim women suffer under polygamy and worse, even in the West, even in the USA. He, too, knows damn well that the absolute rulers all across the Middle Eastern Muslim world revel in a depth of moral decadence that would have the Borgias green with envy. (Camel jockeys, mutigenerational pedophilia, extortion, dhimmitude, slavery, and I'm leaving a lot out.)

First: The new Pope is supposed to be a very smart man, but the passages in bold are stupid and wrong. Since when is Islam monogamous? And since when is it dignified for a woman to become a victim of the most horrible crime, which I will not call by its common disgusting designation but will name it what it is: sororicide --murdering female relatives. Some dignity. (And don't hand me the old saw about cultural, not Islamic. That's bullshit. These murders are Islamic through and through.) And from the first day someone begins praying five times a day in a single direction, or reciting words they don't understand, Muslims begin to manipulate human life; they would nitpick your moments down to the subatomic if they could.

American democracy is not only compatible with Islam, they are nearly identical, according to this man
