This is supposed to be one of those "See? Compared to Egypt, the U.S. is Paradise" threads, isn't it?
No I didn't. This is what hapens when you edit a post dipshit. Compare and contrast. And admit you're wrong.
Doesn't matter what his original intention was. He's just illustrated why it is imperative the likes of Romney, Ryan, Akin and all the other Republican politicians need to be barred from ever being in office. With them, this is the direction our country will be heading. Keep up the good work, Sandbagger.
Sure. Led by this happy fellow. Based on my past posts we all know what I would do. Saw what exactly?
Let me make this plain to you garamet. You are beneath my me. You are a nasty piece of something, I step in occasionally. Now scurry off and take your stench with you.
Liar. Anyone beneath your me would be crushed to death. What that has to do with Egypt is, not surprisingly, nothing at all.
“If Allah says 100 strikes, 100 strikes it is. If Allah says cut off their hand, you cut off their hand. If Allah says stone them to death, through the Prophet Muhammad, then you stone them to death, because it’s the obedience of Allah and his messenger—nothing personal.” Well allow me to retort: If my mission statement says 100 air strikes, 100 air strikes it is. If my Wing Commander says expend all ordnance in your tent, then we expend all ordnance in your tent, because it's the obedience of the Commander In Chief and his messenger, Colonel Davis-nothing personal.
So a military mission statement = a religious directive? I don't think that was the analogy you were going for here.
What I was going for was he has his directives he must follow and we have ours. If he thinks it's "nothing personal" then I guess it's nothing personal if Allah forbid we go to war with his kind and we bomb the living piss out of them. I would rather follow orders from an actual living human than a nonextistent figment of their imagination via a dead prophet.
Fair enough, but what's that got to do with the OP? Unless there's a quote from the Quran that says "women are asking for it," any sane person would recognize this as a universal problem, whether it occurs in Egypt or in Akin's home state.
Okay, nothing blatantly rapey, but just ask yourself what would happen to a woman that says "no", in any of those scenarios. Particularly the slave-wives.
Not materially different from the Old Testament (and all that Paulian "shut up in church and be subject to your husbands" stuff in the New) that the Quran was built on, and all of it just a lamina on far more ancient tribal cultures. All of which is far too deep for what sandbagger was going for. But certainly what Todd Akin is preaching.
This isn't a case of isn't Romney better than Phaeroh. ( Check out Warren Jeffs) The question is to whom do we close our borders?
I'd punch Warren Jeffs in the nuts if I could. That said, what does it say about our own nation when THE WHOLE FUCKING COUNTY is aware of what Jeffs and his cronies are doing but nobody goes in guns blazing to stop it? That systematic child rape and slavery goes on right under our noses and nobody stops it? Hey folks...if your cult leader is kidnapping your underage daughters and fucking them, tell an adult.
/thread Because that's the real issue - that sexual abuse has happened and is happening in every nation on Earth.
Imagine if someone were disingenuous enough to try to hold the entire United States responsible for Warren Jeffs' actions...
