Since you took out my opinion of options, here it is again:
Options:
Everyone is subjugated (converted or murdered) by islamic followers.
The people that do not want to be subjugated get ugly and make a big enough stain in the ME where the islamic "leaders" calm their butts down, and "act" like we can all get along (until they see weakness again).
The people that are not muslim "extremists" look at their religion (system of deceit, destruction and death) and decide to reform it, by taking all the violence out of it, and concentrating on worshipping their god. Then they put on their big boy pants and tell the extremists to "chill".
The people that are not muslim "extremists" read the Bible and see the quran is a twisted version of the OT with a writer like L Ron Hubbard taking over after that (a whole lot of words that can be taken many different ways), and decide not to follow a "faith" that has been "made up" by a reject from Mecca. Then they put on their big boy pants and tell the extremists to "chill".
It looks like the problem is the ME culture, where men listen to their particular chief/holy man/etc, and the women are not allowed to talk sense to men. How can it change as long as the men in the ME act like imature children running to a leader for every decision, and silencing anyone that has a different view?
I believe at a time it was good and it worked. Today I don't see it as the always right thing because people are different nowadays and there are other ways to approach sentences. Court and jail is preferable and there isn't any full shariah followed anywhere except almost in Saudi Arabia but people there are very religous so it makes more sense there to me. Shariah isn't just about punishments, there are many things to it. Such as how you eat , how to greet people it's all called the "Sunnah". Following Sunnah is like a manner and moral code. Shariah isn't for this time. Our prophet even said at a point we won't follow it. Because people aren't at high religous expectations like at the beginning of Islam. And back then there weren't jails, etc. so it was a good system. Now it changed, and mainly it's because people aren't ready for it. So no at this time.
Thank you! I can understand that you would think it needs moderized.
Keeping the questions simple:
Do you think it is "good" to disable or remove body parts of children for sexual pleasure of others, or forcing sex to be painful for the pleasure of others?
