Also, saying something like that about him is rather ridiculous since i'm sure he see's his mother as the strongest figure in his life. From what i now about him so far, i've figured that his mother raised him alone whilst working! So equality for women isn't the problem for him as he sees that women can be strong!

Aaaaah~! I didn't say or even imply that Islamic countries don't educate their women!!! Mer, I think you're jumping to conclusion based on our past discussion :P .
All I said was that those three religions are patriarchal, and a lot of people erroneously take it too far. That's all I said! I was making no assumptions about ivi0nk3y's position or relationships with women. I was only stating that one should expect some gender bias from anyone who is a firm believer in those three faiths.
And having been raised a Christian, this I did not learn from TV. We did actually have quite a few sessions where we contrasted our (correction: 'their') beliefs with those of mainstream Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Despite what I may have said about islamic terrorist organizations or other such things, I'm not COMPLETELY ignorant of Islam and it's more basic principles.
