    Did the economy crash in 2014? Were any Gays actually stoned, in an Islamic sense? Keep in mind it was a Muslim who shot up a Gay nightclub in Orlando, killing 49 people. How does that compare to this guy in Oklahoma?

    It doesn't do your argument any good when you try to maximize one instance while ignoring or playing down far more serious crimes. https://www.jpost.com/Middle-East/Iran-publicly-hangs-man-on-homosexuality-charges-578758

    nope, thank goodness, religious nuts can't gain power in a society that is doing well

    it's when society sucks that some people start thinking God is punishing them cause of the non-believers

    Many are but of course there are exceptions, like the guy just caught casing monuments in NYC. Atheists and agnostics can be well behaved also.

    I wasn't aware of that. Crime wasn't that much of a problem among people during the Great Depression. Of course there was Bonny and Clyde and such, but they were the exception rather than the rule. But at that point in American culture the people didn't expect the government to look after them and give them 'free stuff'..

    not sure of the case your referring too, but agree fanatical atheists can be bad as well, there is just less of them

    not over a billion like Christians and Muslims.. so just the numbers plays a part, most criminals in the USA are Christians, but just cause most Americans are Christians, most criminals in a Muslim country would be Muslim, most criminals in a Atheist Country would be Atheists

    All of the Dem candidates have strange ideas but none are particularly religious. In fact most murderous dictators of the previous century were atheists.

    most dems politicians are Christians, but yes I agree, both sides have some strange idea's I disagree with

    no, most murderous people were theists.... 911, Hitler, the list goes on and on... look what Christians did to the American Indians

    look at Bush and Iraq... Jesus Rifles, biblical quotes on Iraq war memo's, ect...

    I'd say that the deplorables are at it again, trying to sow hate and division in the country with their fake propaganda.

    Are you saying that Islam is not right about women?

    They have every right in the universe to preach their evil, filthy, ugliness; they have no right at all to act upon it. And they certainly have no right to violate anyone’s property rights by placing an intellectual bowel movement on that which they do not own.

    It's odd that the two countries with the highest Muslim population have had female leaders but the US has never had one. Quite telling

    But anyway, looking at details of Winchester, I think this was a prank by some college kids

    Its the top four countries by Muslim population - Indonesia, India, Pakistan & Bangladesh & its not especially odd.

    Of those five women three were daughters of the first men to rule their nations after independence, one was the wife of a former leader and the other a daughter of a former leader (seeing a pattern). Three of those men were assassinated, in one case with most of his family (the daughter was overseas at the time).

    In South Asia dynastic politics is all powerful. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh & Sri Lanka have all been dominated by particular family political dynasties for large chunks of their post-independence history. The women in question are/were undoubtedly sharp political operators, but they only got their chance because of the power of family-based political machines.

    If you are looking for some wider significance you won't find it, though you are right to point out the ongoing failure of America to properly represent women at the highest levels of government. That is sadly more difficult when you have one political party that thinks having 90% of its Congressional delegation made up of white men is somehow 'merit' based. That said, American women are better off then most women in the nations listed, in most cases spectacularly so.

    Women do need to be put in their place tho....

    They have a bit too much freedom and are still not satisfied, they should have never been allowed to vote....

    Our founders had it right

    What's fake? I mean, is this an issue that can't be discussed in a pluralistic society? Do you have other topics that are verboten?
