You say that, but at the same time you never actually use the term “Islam” in your condemnation of fundamentalist Islam. You used a generic reference to all religions, even though this (and most stories like it) are concerning one very specific religion. There’s a difference between conflating fundamentalist Islam…

Thank you, I was starting to believe, that I was talking to an assembly of asylum inmates. One voice of reason!
But almost all of these horrible stories involving fundamentalism involve Islamic fundamentalism. Horrible things are done by Christians, but 1) I don’t think they are done at the rate similar crimes are committed by certain Muslims, and 2) when Christians do these things they are denounced as being Christian…
With women like you, I’d wish you’d have to live in one of those islamic countries where time seems to stand still for a little while (not as a tourist though). You’d find out what being subservient really means for women in those countries.
You might as well not even try to reason with this person. It’s no use. This site is full of apologists for the worst aspects of Islam. If a Muslim does something horrible they’ll criticize religion as a whole, men, hell they might even find a way to point the finger at Western culture, white men or Christianity…
Let me break this down for you (again):
If 91% of all cases happen within muslim families, doesn’t that paint a pretty clear picture about honor killings and religion? That’s like saying that rape is a gender neutral crime, just b/c a small fraction of all rapists are women. Placing the blame equally on men and women, when every sane person knows that not…
This study apparently hasn’t heard about all the mass non-muslim honor killings around the world either. /s
Read this, then go fuck yourselves.
Read this study to the end, then tell me again about the many honor killings in Italy and how this has nothing to do with Islam.
I apologize, it’s only 91%:
As always, fundamentalism in any form is a poison. Why bring up the other forms of fundamentalism when this (and the majority or horrible things done in the name of religion) have been tied to one specific type of fundamentalism? Islamic fundamentalism.
Honor killings *are* mainly a ‘muslim thing’. That gay kid does not get pushed off the bridge my their parents and siblings and in almost all western countries abortions *are* legal. This is in no way, shape or form even remotely comparable.
Once again, a Muslim murder is the fault of white, republican American males.
People getting publicly stoned to death/burnt alive b/c they admit to being gay or having an abortion in the US in the middle of the day by a mob in public? When did that happen recently? The last time gay people got killed in drones for being gay was at a nightclucb in Florida. Who was that guy again and what was his…
Ahh, but why stop with fundamentalist religion when you can narrow it down even further? The bottom 19 countries are all either majority-Muslim or have a plurality of Muslims. Not until the 20th country, Angola, do you find a country where Muslims do not constitute the largest religious group. If the problem were…
Whole families convicting a woman to death cuz she doesn’t adhere to their atavistic views of decency vs a free society where women have the right to an abortion and contraceptives. Go to a christian church and tell the congegrates that you are planning to convert to another religion. Some might give you funnylooks,…
Check out the report quoted in this article. There is a common theme to the 19 countries at the bottom.
According to the World Economic Forum’s 2015 Gender Gap Report, Pakistan has the second widest gender disparity gap of the 145 countries listed, the worst only to Yemen.
Guys, guys, guys. Guys. Not all muslims are bad though.
