How do you ensure your kids become “good” Muslims? You beat the shit out of them, of course.
How do you deal with a recalcitrant daughter who chooses to wear skirts that show – oh, horror of horrors! – her knees?
You hire a killer to take her out.
OK, so not all Muslims act like this. But what makes those who choose to do it do it in the name of Islam?
gay and lesbian matters, rationalism, atheism, freethought, secularism — this is the weblog of the Pink Triangle Trust, the only gay humanist charity

We welcome lively and challenging comments. However, please try to stay on topic, be polite and do not use abusive, racist or sexist language, and do not incite your readers to violence or other antisocial behaviour, or your comment will be deleted. This isn't censorship: it's a case of staying within the bounds of decency and having an eye to the law, although we realise the law will be different in different countries.
We do not bar anonymous comments at the moment, but we would prefer that those commenting play fair and use their name or at least a regular nom de plume. It does show a confidence in your convictions. We know, too, that it's easy to use a false name and be effectively anonymous, but, again, we appeal to your sense of good practice. Even a wacky nom de plume is better, since at least readers will come to know that contributor and maybe remember her or his previous comments.
Blatant commercial advertising will be removed.
Comments should not be construed as necessarily the policy or opinion of the Pink Triangle Trust.

Islam is truly a psychotic and misogynistic religion.
ReplyDeleteDon't get me wrong, Christians can be almost as insane, so too can Jews. There have been honor killings among all three Abrahamic religions.
I always tell the religious, I'd like to see you live your life based on the prescriptions in Leviticus. You'd see a general uproar. That's just one book of the O.T. imagine if we applied some N.T. like 1 Timothy 2:11. I'm sure all the woman would appreciate that one.
It's sad when people feel the need to control others to the umpteenth degree using gods and holy books as the excuse for their acts of barbarism.
ReplyDeleteSorry mommy has to spank you but Jesus demands it.
Leviticus demands you die for loving the "wrong" gender.
I don't care if you have desires of your own--god says your function in life is to be a brood sow and my personal servant so get back in the kitchen and make me and your ten kids some dinner! Oh, to be as holy and righteous as them. [/sarcasm]
