Somebody correct me - I seem to recall someone telling me that female circumcision is okay with the muslins, but male circumcision is not.
Napier opposed sati. This was the custom of burning a widow alive on the funeral pyre of her husband. Sati was rare in Sindh during the time Napier stayed in this region. Napier judged that the immolation was motivated by profits for the priests, and when told of an actual Sati about to take place, he informed those involved that he would stop the sacrifice. The priests complained to him that this was a customary religious rite, and that customs of a nation should be respected. As recounted by his brother William, he replied:
"Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs."
It’s a RIGHT? For Whom? Certainly not for the mutilation VICTIM! In the minds of those heathen Muslim butchers DOING the mutilation, it may be a RITE. But it most certainly isn’the a RIGHT.
So they can mutilate girls but I can’t pray before a football game?
I like it.
Problem is, in our pathetic case we allow the act, then allow THEM to sue US so they WON’T get the punishment.
