Only problem is you ask 10 muslims a question (ie what is right and what is wrong) and nine of them will want to lop your head off while the other one holds you down!

I guess what Im trying to say is this, this isnt a straight forward case of breaking a tradition or respecting a tradition because there are so many ways of looking at an issue. Some sudanese wanting to liberate her head from the rest of her body while others wanted to let her go. So who do you listen to?

The reason for wanting to lop off her head was because she is said to have insulted Islam. This is the same Islam that is supposed to be about peace and compassion. Tell me that is not a hypocratic faith...

Everyone should respect the traditions of the country he/she is in and abide by the law. Its got nothing to do with being morally acceptable or not - its the law !

Is Maxamus a troll or just really confused?

Tolernace? Thats a western concept. We tolerate too much. Thats why this country is full of chavs and people who dont want to work.
Really, this country tolerates too much.

Maybe this country should be more hardlined.

What about a British professor getting banged up in the USA for walking across a road ?

Spoken like a true law abider. I guess you never speed, drop litter (albeit accidentally) etc. Oh how good it must be to be be as perfectly bahaved...

Im talking to you muppets.

I see the ussual guys here who were not so long ago posting that when immigrants and forigners come here they should learn our language and learn to respect and live by our values.

Why isnt it like that when we go and live in other peoples countries...why dont we live by their traditions and values?

Hypocrites !

Because we are better than them of course

[Maxamus]

I hope you never make a silly mistake in a Muslim country. I'm sure you know all the subtle religious laws inside and out.

What about the concept of tolerance? Perhaps tolerance is a one way street.

I agree, but firing squad for not knowing that allowing children to name a teddy bear is a mortal sin?

How about any foriegner who comes here and drinks real ale cold faces the electric chair?

Sounds fair.
