Religion of Peace, My Ass! (Part 21)
Quick question:
What religion practiced by a billion + people has anything approaching the concept of..."honor" killing?
Yes. That same religion that promises 72 virgins for murderers of "infidels."
Yes. The Religion of Peace...of the grave...for so many. Even more so if you're female in a male-dominated religion that condones honor killing of women.
Wonder how peaceful these two poor girls in the above linked article thought their religion was-at the end?
Yeah, I know...this isn't indicative of so many peaceful adherents of Islam, it's unfair to tarnish so many innocents for the actions of a very few, Christianity had its horrors, I'm a hater, blah blah blah. I just don't feel like being fair right now. Problem is you hear about crap like this too damn often, with too little outrage from the RoP community.
Hell, we'll probably find out tomorrow that the father or RoP wasn't involved at all. I'll apologize then.
UPDATE (1/04/08)
From Michelle Malkin's site, the brother of Sarah and Amina Said insists that Pop's religion was irrelevant. He "disputed widespread rumors and media reports that his Muslim father’s religion may have been part of the motive.
“It’s not religion,” he said, declining to speak in detail about a possible motive. “It’s something else. Religion has nothing to do with it.”
The brother's name? Why, it's Islam Said.
Silly me.
