and my daughters father was Alevi, but he denounced the religion like his brother.
I agree with you guys with the islamophobia, even tho it doesn't concern me personally I do see it around me and I find it sad, most muslims just mind their own business anyway. Plus I find them very welcoming once you get to know them, they'd share their last food with you. It probably comes down to xenofobia or something. Our religions have some common ground as I experienced it.
Catholicism is also very patriarchical (why you accept that women can't be priests

). Some things are they way they are and are designed to be. This is something many people in the west don't seem to get. It's not like women are not as smart but within a religion they have a different role and are not to be changed simply cause some find it outdated.
I do find 1 thing scary tho and that's the exodus of young muslim women to join the IS. Granted, living there might make certain things easier as a muslim rather then being in the west but I fear for their safety
