The issue is that its only the Islamic cultures that have these things. The culture and the religion are not completely separate.
Then prove me how it related?
But first before you write your argument and fall into generalization and forwarding wrong premise for your conclusion, you must differ by definition between Islam and culture. Both is different. Islam by definition is the teaching that are in the Quran and the authentic or shahih Hadith. While culture is a habit, heritage that the community flourish before or after Islam.
If you claim that Islamic teaching is the source of multilation and honor killing it will be negate if it appear before Islam enter the region and also it will negate if it basically against Islamic teaching in both moral and ethics.
I think you not bother to read all my post, as I already address all of this clearly in this thread. As there are also a culture of muslim that against Islamic teaching for example drinking alcohol in kosovo. There also a culture that already there before Islam enter the region, for example the festival of
wayang in Indonesia which is derive from Hindust stories of Mahabarata, Ramayana, etc from Viyasa.
You can't just claim Islam to effect all of this without you know what is Islam in the first place.
Now, the people on college campuses damning everyone to hell is one thing but people practically going around pointing guns at people and shooting them unless the convert to Islam is another. I've had people return from the Middle Easter countries and many of them tell of these things happening from time to time. Its not that uncommon.
well that is very uncommon among the muslim, infact mostly the muslim really don't care if someone convert to Islam or not as long as they can be what they are, and living they
sunnah and to be leave alone. But of course peoples will create myth among them and start to not leave them alone, include by provoking them into something. The things that some peoples really want to see on us is; to see that we are brutal, fight like an orc, nasty, mutilation lover, immoral, we kill our own daughter and son and rage fight back against everybody and eat them alive. So some peoples can have a clear evidence to hate and to fight muslim and Islam.
While it will not happen. Forever, mostly the one who kill the muslim in Iraq, in Palestine, in Afghanistan, etc they will never know what is the reason they must kill these peoples, for liberty? for searching Osama? for Chemical weapon? for giving them a better government and culture?
While those freedom fighter will always know the reason why should they fight back, because they must stand for their land, their ideology, the honor of their women which being rip off by the occupation soldier and in prison camp, they know exactly why they must fight.
So as moral support the west media must create a imaginary thing about us, so they hope their boys know why they must fight a barbarian like the muslim and their evil religion. Like how they do it to native american backthen, to Japan, to Vietnam, but God willing, this is gonna be a different story, trust me.
my advice, like Pink Floyd say
BRING THE BOYS BACK HOME They can't fight these peoples, never.
At this point, I can't really think that Islam is actually a religion of peace.
the muslim never start the war, don't call the one who fight back as not a peaceful one. Islam teach peace, loving your parents, loving your neighbor, feed the poor, not set a compulsion on religious view, but it also teach us to fight back when they been exploit. You born in US, you can see us not a peaceful religion and US and it allies as peaceful nation with peaceful ideology while you living in the core of capitalism and sitting comfort in your living room while your government must kill and rape so they can be what they are today, and making their daughter live like Pamela Anderson and their son living their life without have to worry to sign up in military operation, its your duty to be feed by the Pasthuun bullets.
But it will be different if you live in palestine, when bomb and close relative dying is your everyday pop song, when the headless baby girl and a child burn because chemistry weapon (sulfur) is your daily life seeing. How can you tell these peoples to not fight back? No they must fight. If you can respect the French fighting back against Nazi why you can't respect the muslim fight back against US imperial? what happen in the street now, peoples angry, and whole these things is nothing but explosion of energy that been keep for long time, and still peoples try to lit the fire, and it "BOMB". Then you surprise, "why they are so barbaric and uncivilized? "
it is still good the mobs not angry infront of the embassy and bring the US official and do exactly what the French peoples do at French revolution. Both of them are tired of pressing of everyday life, of Tyrant that been feed and protect by US, all of these Tyrant muslim goverment that you address are US allies, and been protect and care by the US.
You can say its the culture in that region but you'd be foolish to say Islam hasn't influenced that culture. The fact is that majority muslim countries are extremely repressive with or without US influence.
I never say that. Do read my previous post if you really want to know what I think.
