Whats the problems with Muslim world?

Travel Info
I asked few questions out of curiosity to know the system better... but with their answer they always start blaming USA.

What woman not driving in saudi has to do with girls loosing virginity in usa.

and the lady started telling that ppl go to prostitute in usa and arabs keep 4 wives. so u want to tell that these 4 wives are equalant to prostitutes. wife is just to please a guy in bed or a life partner.
why r u soo much single minded.

I'm a muslim and I think the main problem is that we, muslims, always think from points of view which have been built 1400 years ago.
Most of us think that what good 1400 years ago are definitely good for today.
Somehow, I agree with Samuel Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations". Muslims world has clashed with 21st century world.

BTW, you're right, every time I discuss about democracy, freedom, and other good western values with my fellow muslims, they always counter-attack with sexual things, such as free sex, virginity, rapes, bla bla bla...
Why? I don't know. But once I concluded that they probably do have acute sexual problems, therefore they replied with sexual things.

USA is culture of the devil on the planet. Whatever they touch becomes rotten soon. Wherever Europe has gone, they have brought depravity and lower social levels. Prostitutes around USA military bases (see Phillipines), black market for USA movies and music. It is a filthy way of life.
But this "filthy" way of life is providing us with the program we are communicating on and learning about each others cultures. And the Internet, and so very much more. Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater - no culture or religion is all good or all bad. People are different and that makes them interesting. When we just criticize and discriminate we don't learn and grow.
The muslim world is a world or old age, back in the cave world. It is their way or no other way, regardless on how far mankind has evolved and advanced in life.
Have you ever watched an episode in south park, where teh teacher lists the reasons why they hate us so much? Check it out, very funny.
They are still around.
every culture has its vices... There are wonderful things about the muslim community (remember muslims arent just arabs, they are now almost everywhere on earth) Even in USA.
I noticed 1 dramatic difference though.. By the way. I am Saudi-American dual citizenship and lived both places.. I am muslim, I have many christian relatives from my US side..
I have noticed that muslims live by the Quran and incorporate religion in their daily lives.. They live religion (im not talking about fanatics) but muslims by their very definition take it all very seriously.. when God says not to do something, they dont.. Now not to hurt feelings.. but do you know what a C and E christian is? One who only goes to church on christmas and Easter? Thats what my Christian Grandfather used to call them... He said they are hypocrites that pick and choose what they want and dont want from the bible.. They drink on Saturdays and go to church on Sunday saved for another week.. Now how is that for following Gods rules?.. Also look at the morality of some christians? Madonna herself dresses and dances like a (insert bad girl word here) and yet she had a cross necklace around her neck.. Isnt that sacreligious? Look at the 10 commandments, though shalt not... etc etc... But many of the adulters, murders, pedophiles, cheaters, all claim to be Christian... So in essense, what I mean is.. the west doesnt have that life/combined with religious morality that muslim communities do.. They feel like good God fearing Christians, but they accept the bad stuff and just live with it.. ..
I think the muslim communities dont want this way of life to be forced upon them... The people of Iraq welcomed USA to come liberate them, but that didnt mean to force the western way of life upon them.. They still want to preserve their own culture.. I think that might be what you mean by "whats wrong with the muslims".. We want to be worldly, but retain our moral culture in the mean time...
ok listen this is a really long and subject but I am going to answer your questions ok the thing about women not driving in Saudi is really stupid we all agree on that but the thing is people in Saudi well when you look in the Arabian peninsula history even before islam they are really over protective with there women i think its genetic but really and saudi is really big and me as a guy i really hate drivng there I am terrefied of driving there like i can imagine if my mom starts driving in saudi but that doesnt mean I am againt women driving i think its there right and to prove that i support women driving i proudlu admit that my mom drives better than me and she has a lenience she got it in Bahrain but you would shocked as I was when I found out that actually a lot of women in Saudi appose driving so women driving has nothing to do with Islam or religion all Muslims countries allow there women to drive only Saudi and hopefully that will change.......

and about a man taking more than one wives its actually not that complicated tell what is better your husband cheating with you with some prostitute and getting or sorts of diseases to you and to your house or do you prefer him to be married to another women in holy matrimony be honest with your self and you would be surprised that a lot of women don鈥檛 mind there men getting another wife and you have to know that there are rules stated by the Islamic law that ok you can get another wife but you have to manage it you have to give all your wives the same right and not to shorten with them in anything every one has to have he own house and you can two sisters its completely forbidden if you cant do that buzz off that鈥檚 why most of the people that have more than one wife are the rich ones and this is really a dying matter no one really does that anymore and its really rare to find some one married to more than one .

P.S. there are alot of people that talk like they have the answers to every thing and they really donr we have an old saying that goes like this: TELL THE SANE THE UNBELLIVABLE AND IF HE BELLIVES YOU HE IS UN SANE
