At least in the US and the rest of the civilized world the woman who is raped has some recourse through the courts and law enforcement, in most Muslim countries she would be convicted of a crime, namely adultery and be stoned to death.
Here is some excellent stuff: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6412453.stm
Yeah...GREAT religion.
So Stu, you HONESTLY think that EVERY Muslim in EVERY country wants to see an adulterer stoned to death? Do you honestly think that every single one of them who considers them self a Muslim, wants to see that happen? There is no way. If that was the case, adultery wouldn't even EXIST. You make no sense. Yes, the "religious extreme government" SUCKS.
I could post all sorts of links from just this VERY thing happening in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc etc RECENTLY...well Afghanistan was during the Taliban government, and being CONVICTED in the courts there. Women raped and convicted of adultery for it, but you should look it up yourself.
I think what she's trying to say, and what I am saying, is that there's a huge difference between a majority of Islam's adherents and what their Imams, other religious leaders, and those who actually have the power believe and perpetuate. Most moderate Muslims I know of don't think a woman who was raped should be sentenced to death.
Bingo!
