- perhaps the practice of dueling on a ground of honor should be revived?
Just thinkin' ... it would sure end a lot of stupid arguments.
No actually it wouldn't end anything; it would deepen it. But it's interesting to see who comes out for the concept of
honor killing.
Ok time out. There is a huge difference between two guys dueling to the death and a Muslim Father murdering his daughter because her dress is too short. Don't smear dueling with Muslim "honor killing".
Honor killing isn't "Muslim". It isn't even religious.
Alexander Hamilton died from an honor killing.
So did Anne Boleyn.
So did any number of bride-burning victims in India. And Mafia executions.
So did
Isabella di Morra.
George Waggaman, Senator for whom Waggaman Louisiana was named.
None of them had anything to do with "religion".
Dafuck did you think dueling was about?
Money?
Funny to end up with such an opinion on all your "deaths". Ya I saw a special tha his son and himself alexander Hamilton was taught ot Arrive at the duel, But, That a Christian shoots in the Air, then they BOTH DIED! BOTH DUELS! I Don't think you get credit if you just make it up too. Christ liked your duel?
You know the tune Greensleeves, has been around, nobody talks about a pro-Elizabethan context do they? That legitimizes the Protestant line of the Throne through Anne Boleyne to be painting King Henry as the indulgent, fibbing, lying, treacherous wife killer, which the poem accomplishes.
Ya I Heard indian emperors get to burn their wives on death with posessions.
