what kind of messed up “religion/culture” forbids the touching of dogs? you have to teach children to hate dogs unless they’ve been bitten.. it’s natural for children to love animals.. and its a natural reaction to want to pet animals.. they are truly screwed up.

The same that forbids eating pigs. Way back in the day pigs and dogs were pretty big disease vectors. The problem with modern Islam is that it *refuses to adapt* to new realities in the world. The Koran was a great problem solving document in 700ad. Now not so much. I don't see christian men adhering to Leviticus, stoning people and building funky temples these days. Fundamentalist Islamists might learn a thing or two from their example.
