Right. These practices are abominations and must first be condemned by all of humanity, and secondly we must fight to change this.

You see it as a 'Muslim' thing, or as brian's thread would say 'The Truth about Islam', because you are prejudiced in that respect. What you don't see is that your attitude is counter productive.

I can't help you with that as long as you are getting your education and world view from the sources that feed your paranoid psychosis.

Liberation is not a matter of defeating your opposition; it is a matter of locating common purpose that binds the good in all of us.

The history of the world is one of liberating human beings from one form of powerful corruption to another. If you have something to lose, you are not free to choose.

“Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose,
Nothing don’t mean nothing honey if it ain’t free, …” (‘Me & Bobby McGee’, sung by Janis Joplin on ‘Pearl’ album 1971)

"We're not here because we're free. We're here because we're not free. There is no escaping reason; no denying purpose. Because as we both know, without purpose, we would not exist.
It is purpose that created us.
Purpose that connects us.
Purpose that pulls us.
That guides us.
That drives us.
It is purpose that defines us.
Purpose that binds us." (The Matrix Revolution 2003)

You think your stuff is important. “For what if you gain the whole world but lose your very soul?”

"We must be the change we wish to see in the world" (Mahatma
Gandhi)

It’s not who I am underneath…
It’s what I can do that defines me. (Batman Begins, 2005)

"The question isn't 'who is going to let me'; it's 'who is going to stop me'." - Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

Be the change

Be the Reason…
