Agreed. Apart from colonisation, I don't know what the answer is.

done some research and asked a Muslim friend about this, stoning is not mentioned in the Quran and proving Adultery is very difficult as it has to be witnessed by 4 people.

yup...

... I also love the way the "judge" masks his face so as not to be identified. So, he obviously has no problem being held accountable for his judgements. Cowardly is all I can say...

But the Quoran is taken in all sorts of ways yeah? Some muslims are more relaxed and the taliban and saudis read more into it and are fully, turbo mental.

I can't really comment as I am not a Muslim, but they don't appear to do themselves any favours at times. But then there are some right Christian twats about as well.

no, but similar things are written in the Old Testament too... and I think there it does actually spell out stoning as a recommended recourse for certain social "crimes". Not very "love thy neighbour".

Ever heard of Ireland?

Colonisation worked really well there, too.

Actually it is! Sadly it's the fanatics that interpret it in such a way as to make it full of hate and intolerance. Sadly the moderate muslims won't stand up and fight that attitude.

:p we weren't a primitive race before the british came over by the way! (cromwell the first puritan fundamentalist sounds similar huh?)

only beaten by sheer weight of numbers, we just couldn't kill all of you.

plus the war was never religious, even our first state had many protestant members and the first woman MP!
