As with the Bible, you can read the Quran as you want so that it conforms with your world view. If you wanna be a misogynic ******* who treats women like ****, you can justification for that in the Quran. Likewise, if you believe in equal treatment, you can also find grounds for that.

Again, why this obsession with the false equivalencies? The vast majority of the horribly misogynistic passages in the Bible are in the Old Testament; and all major denominations of Christianity have always placed more emphasis on the New Testament. Notice that when Christian organizations developed in geographic isolation; such as, say, Coptic Christians or Oriental Orthodox, their theology developed was - such as that in the West - focused on the New Testament rather than the old.
Contrast this to Islam, which has produced oppression for women
everywhere; from China to Morocco, Chechnya to India, the Philippines to Nigeria. That was see this oppression across all major sects of Islam, when coupled with Geographic diversity and the diversity of cultures prior to the introduction of Islam, tells us - quite clearly - that, yes, Islam is a fundamentally sexist religion.

The fundamental idea of the burqa is that it stops women being attractive to any random blokes in the street, which in a way gives women a hell of a lot more respect as people than the bullshyte they've got on them in the Bible.

wtf? The bullseye the Bible puts on them? Really? Please, please state what you mean.
