LilyFlower"Unfortunately, in the name of multiculturalism and fostering the mistaken idea that all cultures are equal we have allowed religions based on misogyny to flourish in our midst. Anyone who pointed out in reasonable tones and with valid arguments that this was eroding the rights of women was called a racist."
Exactly LilyFlower.
Where does tolerance, acceptance, understanding stop in relation to these EVIL people?
We have to call it if we want to change the world for the better. It's almost palpable that civilised western nations are tip-toeing around some atrocious happenings in the name of religion for fear of, well, what exactly? Reprisals, upsetting some sort of multicultural balance?
I cannot believe anyone of sane mind would do that to a child. When the lives of females and children are so cheap and blighted by some inhuman males, we need to call those mad fanatics just that, and not give their terrorist groups or indeed whatever they worship, any kind of credence. Mild mannered and decent people of faith must be horrified and deeply saddened by events.
