Ever seen a Baptist dad do this?

    Oh, right. I guess law doesn't matter.

    They're both fucked up, for sure.

    But, you don't see how killing your own daughter might be more disturbing?

    Look, there are problems with Islam, and almost all of them boil down to the sexuality of women and their role in society.

    Pretending these problems don't exist won't make them go away.

    This is what happens when you try to tag idiot renegades with a religion versus looking at the fundamentals of a religion itself. But play on.

    Nobody's pretending that Islamic fundamentalists don't have problems. So do Christian fundamentalists. Anybody that can't or won't apply to their religion any more thinking than it takes to read ancient scripture will have problems.

    I do think a man killing his daughter has more problems, but the motivation of his crime isn't that much different than any abortion doc killer.

    I'm certain someone will find this profound.

    Christian fundamentalists are lone nuts. Islamic fundamentalists are indicators of an entire religion. Didn't you know that?

    Key phrase there...

    ...isn't that much different."

    Fabulous.

    Typical pro-choice bullshit.

    What's one stupid daughter versus a million kids who never got a chance to be stupid?

    The treatment of women is systematic under Islam. They do not have equal rights. They barely have any rights.

    This should be addressed by the world community. It isn't -- not even by "feminists" in America.

    Religious extremism vs religious extremism

    Some Christians are extremists.

    Women have no rights under Islam.

    Do you not see the difference? Women are property. Animals are treated better.

    This girl was put down by her father, like an animal who was no longer useful. It's not uncommon. Just in Jordan alone, it happens 15 - 20 times per year. Jordan has less people than New York City.

    It's not extreme in the father's culture. It's barely even frowned upon.

    If only they were aetheistic, enthusiastically-pro-abortion communists. Than the West would have no problem with them.
