You know the most disturbing part to me? Rather, the hardest part to understand of all it?
It’s that the woman is seen as sinning when losing her virginity before marriage but that the putting to death of a human being is seen as perfectly fine and no sin at all. So she lost her virginity. What gives another the right to take her life?
God created us all, whether we posses a Bible or not, to know that murder is wrong and to know that life is His gift to us and is precious and sacred. I don’t care what one’s professed religion is, He made sure he equipped each and every one of us with this knowledge.
Crap (for lack of a better term) like this angers me to no end. There’s no excuse under the sun for this horrendous treatment of another human being.
“Possessed” is the only word that comes to mind right now.
In any civilized society, intentional, premeditated murder of another human being has always been a crime... well, except when the human being is a slave, or a serf, or another unwanted low-class person.... which may explain why Muslim women get treated that way, eh?
"Possessed" implies that the person is under unwanted evil influence. I don't think so. I think most Muslim men who carry out these horrendous acts are entirely at ease with their beliefs and the evil acts that follow from them.
Therefore, in my mind, they are just as evil as anyone who seeks out and kills any other innocent person intentionally. I can only hope that these evil bastards eventually face judgment they cannot escape, whether earthly or divine. They deserve to rot in Hell.
