If they need someone to spank 17 year old girls, I'll do it

I agree it doesn't look so bad...I think the punishment is 100 lashes though so I'm sure her ass was pretty tore up by the end. It's the ones they don't tape that I'm sure look more brutal. This one was ment to be public to show exercise of right to administer islamic law.

In some cases they can stone to death for adultery.
16 year old adulteress...does not compute


Islamic law in itself isn't all bad, it's that the people in control are militant scum bags. They don't even let girls go to school, work, drive a car.

Ive read a number of cases where young girls were accused of adultery and put to death..
I guess its an easy way of getting rid of the wife..

Yes that is exactly it. Then again people rely on the media to force feed them and well they believe anything you tell them at face value.

Kinda like how 20% of people in America believe Obama is Muslim. I don't even think as bad as 1/5 outside America. Then again its a huge issue as though Islam was satanical.

I'm not sure if it would have cost Obama the election or not if he was Muslim. It very well might have. But, it is a consistant standard in the presidential election that faith is scrutinized.

A key factor that hurt John F. Kennedy in his campaign was the widespread prejudice against his Roman Catholic religion; some Protestants believed that, if he were elected President, Kennedy would have to take orders from the Pope in Rome.

Clearly it was a huge problem for Mitt Romney

Obama took plenty of heat for the church he did belong to.

No president thus far has been a jew, a buddhist, or a hindu. That would likely go over with plenty of resistance.

The only thing Americans seem to be totally comferatable with is some form of church going, god fearing candidate of a protestant denomination.

We won't see anyone outside of the Christian faith, or its denomenations, in office anytime soon, maybe not even our lifetime. The bottom line is that this country was founded by Protestants who wanted to come practice their religion without the oppression of the Catholic church. The majority are Christians, so they won't elect a Jew, Muslim, Buddhist, or anything like that...before they elect a woman for example.

Agreed. However I beleive that if he overtly declared his faith as being Islam, I think he would not have even been close to winning. Not that Americans are closed-minded or intolerant to other faiths, I just dont think its a great time to be a Muslim in America.

No doubt about that.
