In regards to my statement
Islamic nations have worse human rights than non-muslim nation
This is also factually true. There is a discussion in this thread.
From the thread:
Supposedly among muslim nations there are
1 free
15 partly free
33 not freeBy comparison, for the entire world it is:
84 free
58 partly free
53 not freeSo about 62% of ‘not free’ nations are muslim majority nations, despite muslim majority nations only making up about 25% of the world’s countries.
There are only 20 nations on earth that are both ‘not free’ and not muslim majority (Belarus, Russia, China, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, etc etc)
As I mentioned in the thread itself, ingrained misogyny may be a major factor.
This gap in values mirrors the widening economic divide between the West and the Muslim world. Commenting on the disenfranchisement of women throughout the Middle East, the United Nations Development Programme observed last summer that “no society can achieve the desired state of well-being and human development, or compete in a globalizing world, if half its people remain marginalized and disempowered.” But this “sexual clash of civilizations” taps into far deeper issues than how Muslim countries treat women. A society’s commitment to gender equality and sexual liberalization proves time and again to be the most reliable indicator of how strongly that society supports principles of tolerance and egalitarianism. Thus, the people of the Muslim world overwhelmingly want democracy, but democracy may not be sustainable in their societies.
