Stoning a woman takes a lot of heart.
Lmao like the u.s. doesn't execute male and female prisoners
Right... What fucking privilege to make believe America is clean!
You are right, both instances are awful.
I doubt anyone here particularly cares about the details, but the only crime whose punishment is stoning in Islam is extramarital sex for married people caught in the act by four valid witnesses, and it's not gendered (and also vanishingly rare even in the past), so I'm not sure what you mean by "stoning a woman."
that makes it okay, then!
Fuck all religion. It's backwards, superstitious trash that turns brother against brother for nothing more than headcanon superiority and societal control.
I mean I'm correcting what seemed to be misinformation, not making a moral statement on anything.
😂 and America doesn't fuck lives up or fund nations that fuck lives up. It's the game dunn. All of that aspect is the enemy of humanity regardless of Christianity, American nationalism or Islam. But still Islam has more heart than America's slave culture. All your "freedom" is psychological manipulation to make you believe you have freedom. Shit that's what CIA ethics are based off... Everything is fine if you convince the people it's freewill, even if your convincing them to commit suicide, mass murders, or go to war for the pathetic psychopath mindset.
All of it is dog shit humanity worth eternal torture.
Here's my impression of Muhammad.
God spoke to me and told me that you are full of shit. Therefore you are unclean.
