It's hard to reason with people who throw acid in the face of little girls if they try to go to school.
I don't think Islam is an idea worthy of respect, and it should rightfully be mocked. (Same is true for Christianity, but to a far lower degree.)
Note that the acid throwing is a cultural not religious phenomenon. It occurs primarily in south Asia. You see some in Afghanistan, lesser still in Pakistan and to some degree in India by non-Muslims and Muslims alike. In other parts of the Muslim word such as the Arab states, Turkey, Indonesia, Malaysia, Central Asian countries like Kazakhstan as well as Balkan countries like Kosovo and Bosnia, also Mali and other African nations come to mind like Sudan, Morocco, Algeria. If acid throwing were truly a RELIGIOUS phenomenon as opposed to cultural then would we not see it through out the religious world? We don't so I suppose it's not in the religion so much as cultures of those south Asian countries.
But anyway, I think we all agree that he's doing a disgusting thing. It's the consequences of the event (whether or not there are any or not) and the justification for the event that we are arguing over.
It isn't disgusting to me personally,I don't care about their feelings about their book.
As to the consequences,there should be none as sane people wouldn't murder or attack people over such stupidity.
Actually to me it shows how ignorant, and lunatic some people in America are.
What it confirms to me is, some christians are total hypocrites.
No, I'm not discussing the potential ramifications of this.
I am discussing the stupidity.
The stupidity is that Muslims would be offended enough to murder over a book...something you seem to ignore in your fervor to be tolerant...LOL
