Your comment was a jab at another religion from your politically and affiliative biased perspective My comment was a factual statement about Sharia. It does take four Muslim male witnesses to prove rape under Sharia. If you interpret truth as a "jab", that's your problem.

Although the belief that 4 witness are required for a charge of rape to be levied is pervasive, this is not necessarily the case according to what Muhammad displayed as an example. bismikaallahuma.org But there was a recent case where a woman was raped in Australia by her "boyfriend" when he got her reading the bible (and btw, the last time I checked, Muslims supposedly believe the bible is an authorized record of God's word and worthy of being read): news.com.au And an Australian muslim cleric has stated that women invite rape because they dress provocatively. jihadwatch.org This is the kind of BS that moderate muslims will have to overcome in future years. I don't think Muhammad authorized the rape of women for not wearing a Hijab. Nor do I believe he authorized clitoral circumcision.. These are cultural beliefs, IMO, that predate Islam. Hawk
