Talk about the craziest laws of all…

It is difficult for me to even imagine beating my spouse to keep them in check, murdering my daughter for being a teenager or selling another to the highest bidder… and being within the law and serving God by doing so.
The sickest laws of all are the ones imposed by a groups spiritual beliefs, onto all. Actually, If religion was never invented, half the misery and suffering on the planet would most likely have never occurred. I would bet that more people have been killed over organized religion in our written history than all our non-religious wars put together… the non-religious ones being very few, if any. Even modern wars like WWII and IRAQ were fueled by religious beliefs.

This in fact may be the best example of why criminal and civil law should not be combined with ones personal spirituality.

Islamic laws have long been a source of controversy.

Who comes up with this crazy legal shit?

Is he the corset inspector?

more antiquated sexism….
