It's not just limited to Islamic countries.  It happens
everywhere...daily, I'm afraid.

Yup, so there's the defense for Islam.  The actions she was escaping
from were NOT Islamic, they were practiced by people who hapened to be
muslims.  I applaud your actions in saving her!!

It wasn't Islam that she was escaping from but a horrible family.
Even you stated above that the practices were punishable by death in
Islam, therefore, you cannot blame Islam--it does NOT promote those
actions, in fact, quite the opposite.

No woman deserves rape and incest.  Islam has NOTHING to do with what
happened to her.  Even YOU stated that above.

Glad you couldn't attack my views.  ;-)  Good and evil are simply
perceptions.  What really exists is a spectrum of events and we place
events on that spectrum based on our perceptions OF those events.
Good and evil are creations of our perceptions and, if we were
omniscient, we would know the truth of it.  Heck, even I know the
truth of it and am FAR from omniscient.  Anyway, I applaud your
helping her and what you did was, by far, a VERY Islamic act, as
Islam, when practiced PROPERLY, fights oppression.  And your act
fought the oppression that this woman was suffering.  Good for you!!

Although, I do take issue with your assumption that you or your
children have free will, as that was thrown into the rubbish bin by
Special Relativity.  It's been 105 years since Special Relativity blew
apart the false belief in free will by establishing that space and
time are part of a larger continuum that comprises them both, when
will humanity realise that?
