Pigzillion wrote:If you take someone's life, you pay with your own, be it through decades in prison or lethal injection, but adultery is only befitting of such punishment if religion is involved. Think about it. It's not just about eternal damnation or afterlife punishment. That action (adultery) also kills lives...Do I need to explain deeply?

Case reopened

Are you familiar with the islamic doctrine of ijtihad (reformation) that states that islamic law should continuously be updated and reexamined in order to fit the changing of the times. Some mullah still believe that if this isn't done, it is a violation against allah, for the religion of islam should be flowing not stale. Currently I can only think of one organization which actually speaks out against babaric stale islam (which you seem to adhere to) and actively wants to reform islam for the modern age. This is the Quilliam Foundation. www.quilliamfoundation.org/about

Maybe you should look into them and ijtihad and realize that your islamic way isn't the only islamic way and most likely not even the right one.
