Yes it is a matter of perspective, how many men do you think have been punished for murdering and raping their way round that country over the last 2 decades? We might be soft on crime but at least the majority of our criminals are dealt with eventually, they aren't allowed their own lawless little kingdoms to rule over.

What rules? Don't make me laugh the country is lawless, what message is killing this girl giving, "tough on crime tough on the causes of crime" more like pishing in the wind while the country burns around them.

In this country it wouldn't be allowed as we have no capital or corporal punishment. The only Sharia law probably to ever be allowed in this country will be civil matters

[Hobnob1]

do they do prison or fines in their laws? they can't have it anyway they can abide by our laws or go back to where they do have the law they want.

I beg to differ Russ.

You have (to memory) porn scorn on the Catholic Church as not being a christian organisation in at least two threads. Ofcourse thats your view as an evangelical christian, and as we all know, there's little tollerence between religious sects/movements for those they consider wrong. Yet every time a thread seems to be "bashing religion" you wade in on the side of religion like some mideval champion in shining armour....

I've long been of the opinion that you (like many religious people) will defend "faith", even the faiths of other religions, because atleast they have "faith", even if they worship the "wrong way" or the "wrong god".

That in my opinion is "your" hypocricy.

In that case you've totally understood my stance. I have nothing against Catholics (indeed my mother is one as is most of her side of the family) or their right to faith. What I distrust is Catholic doctrine. Put in simpler terms it's like distrusting a social club committee but not the members.

And when people post ignorance and/or untruths about faiths then yes I will post out where they're mistaken. Whether or not they actually want to learn where they're mistaken is a different matter of course.

Just look at China who has 68 different crimes that are punishable by death and they include financial crimes such as counterfeiting, fraud, tax fraud, corruption, property crimes such as theft, and smuggling cultural relics, gold, silver or other precious metals can be punishable by death.

Are they some backwards Islamic country??

I actually gave up on this thread when it went from an arguement about deserving death and inconsistent rules within the same country and people started on the "It's the fault of religion" but after the last comment I thought I'd burst at least one bubble..

I'm late to join in this thread but I think this is truly inhumane and find it shocking this still takes place these days.

No one wants to find out that their partner has been cheating on them or realise their relationship has ended when their partner has met someone else but is this something so bad to call for death?

Imagine you are being pelted with rocks. It cant exactly be the quickest way to die so must be very painful.
No one should have to be treated like that.

These countries have barbaric ways that should have been eradicated by now as no human being should be subjected to these ways.

however it is their country ,we find it barbaric but they don't ,they will find some of the things we do in this country barbaric .We don't have the right to impose our culture on them any more than they have the right to impose their's on us

How else are they going to keep their lucrative trade in human organs going?

I think it's Iran where if you are sentenced to stoning they bury you up to the neck and then unload a dump truck full of stones on your head, talk about dead and buried.

Do me a favour, it isn't a country it's a mess and the sooner it's sorted the better of they'll be, whose gonna object, the warlords, the pirates or the terrorists? And we have already impossed our will upon them by allowing and helping a neighbouring country to invade and depose what form of government they had.

What sort of wishy washy isolationist thinking is that?

Yes, I think you are right. How in this day and age can people do such things?


martyh, What do we have in this country that can be as barbaric as that ?
