SeattleUte has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default (2) Activity of your spouse

Would you acquiesce if your spouse started spending 3-4 hours every Sunday at a Church in which you did not believe, taking your kids there for indoctrination or (if you have young ones) leaving you saddled with them alone while she did this, and then regularly took 10% of your community owned income and gave it to such church? Would this cause marital discord? Be grounds for divorce?

(NOTE: I've never had this problem. It's a hypothetical.)

Clearly Americans don't really believe this. Half of us have been divorced and you can do it without giving an explanation.

The best part of islam marriage is that you don't have to worry about your husband divorcing you. The worst part is that he cuts off your head if you attempt to convert to another religion, taking your kids to church all day Sunday, and paying 10% of your husband's income for tithing.

I'm being facetious, but aren't you being simplistic on how this scenario would play out in an Islam marriage?

Seriously what would a Muslim man do if his wife tried to pull that off?

muslim men should marry muslim women ,so if a muslim woman is facing a need in her soul and is seeking for truth in other religions ,then its fine..she could have it ..but some schalors believe that muslim men couldnot continue their marriage with a non-muslim woman. so no cutting head off ,sorry to disappoint you.

So then why the self-righteousness about islam marriage being more permanent?
