What does Indonesia have to do with the fact this mainly occurs among Muslims? Why single out one Country? " Kosher Food Laws" are still Man's law just like rules Catholics follow; No Divorce, Against Abortion, Birth Control, etc. etc. That was my point
I truly don't get what you are saying here.
You keep insisting that honor killing is an Islamic thing (as opposed to something endemic in cultures in certain parts of the world). So I point out the largest Islamic country (in terms of population) - a country with very few honor killings and ask how you reconcile your claim with that? Clearly it isn't a part of the religion when it is rare in the most populous Muslim country. Add to that you can find nothing in the religion that actively supports it - unlike Kosher laws who have their origins in the OT (which I linked to).
Continue to be Hypocritical and keep denying this happens primarily among Muslims and is happening here
I'm not being hypocritical. I am simply pointing out (and supporting) basic facts that you are unable to dispute:
- honor killings occur through out the world, most commonly in Middle East and Asia
- they occur in all religions of those parts of the world
- none of those religions actively endorse honor killings
. " Honor Killings" are either not persecuted or they are given a slap on the wrist. One example of it happening here; A Egyptian man DELIBERATELY ran over and killed his two daughters because they were " disrespecting him".( They can't find him now)
And that is exactly the problem. Not the religion - it has little to do with what the religion says - but the culture of people in those parts of the world because it's not just Egyptian Muslims but Egyptian Christians. And, I absolutely agree with you that prosecution of those crimes is shameful as is the general attitude towards women. You will find that same attitude in non-Muslim dominant countries like India. Yet you continue to ignore that in pursuit of a Muslim-only blame.
Did he come from Indonesia? No, he didn't. Who cares where he comes from? He's a MUSLIM .
Who cares if he's Muslim? He's EGYPTIAN.
And never mind that honor killings are rare in the Muslim controlled country of Indonesia.
There was another case in NYS where a MUSLIM beheaded his WIFE!
I refuse to call a " Honor Killing" an " Honor Killing?" lol Makes as much sense as the rest of your posts
Ya...you only call it "honor killing" when it's a Muslim. A Christian doing the same thing or a Hindu doing the same is not an "honor killing". That logic don't fly.
