"Cinderella, a young woman living in the shadow of her oppressive stepfamily, personifies the countless individuals who have been marginalized and silenced throughout history due to their gender or sexual orientation. Her yearning to escape this stifling environment reflects the universal desire for personal freedom and self-expression. The stepmother and stepsisters in Cinderella's story represent the systemic discrimination and prejudice faced by women and LGBTQ+ individuals in many societies. The stepmother's attempts to control Cinderella's life echo the pervasive gender norms that seek to limit women's choices and autonomy. The stepsisters' mockery of Cinderella highlights the bullying and ostracization experienced by many LGBTQ+ individuals. Cinderella's transformation, with the help of her fairy godmother, symbolizes the potential for change and progress when we break free from the chains of traditional gender roles and societal expectations. Just as the fairy godmother empowers Cinderella to attend the royal ball, we must empower individuals of all gender identities and sexual orientations to live authentically and pursue their dreams. Prince Charming, traditionally depicted as Cinderella's rescuer, can be reimagined as an ally in the fight for gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights. His recognition of Cinderella at the ball represents the importance of allies who stand with marginalized communities, championing their rights and amplifying their voices. The glass slipper, a symbol of conformity to traditional gender roles, can instead be seen as a metaphor for breaking these confines. It reminds us that no one should be forced to fit into a rigid mold to find acceptance or happiness. The conclusion of Cinderella's story, where she and Prince Charming live 'happily ever after,' serves as a hopeful reminder that a more inclusive and equitable society is possible when we challenge gender norms and embrace diversity. It's an invitation to a world where love is not constrained by gender or sexual orientation. In the spirit of Cinderella, let us continue to strive for a society where all individuals, regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation, can pursue their dreams, find acceptance, and live authentically. By promoting gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights, we can create a world where everyone can have their own 'happily ever after.'"

A lot of Christians spread the idea that "allah" is a different God than the God they believe in. They are welcome to criticise Islam on the basis of its tenets, but they should understand that "allah" is the word that Arab Christians use for God. The reason is simple: it means God in Arabic. /// This is based on the work of Sam Gerrans' THE QUR'AN: A COMPLETE REVELATION where the Qur'an is exhaustively examined on the basis of the internal Qur'anic evidence rather than on the conflicting and usurping literature called Hadith which was developed some 200 years after the Qur'anic revelation. // The full text of THE QUR'AN: A COMPLETE REVELATION – which comprises 536,000 words, including 9,000 notes and 24 articles – may be downloaded free or bought in paper editions for 10% less than on Amazon at quranite.com ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grChpUMvxlU
