    I assumed the thread on Punishing vs. Retribution was more focused on whether or not we need to punish at all, not about the form of punishment...In any case, I'll go there and post.

    for the few that sort of justify the punishment saying she misbehaved fail to mention how barbaric and r****ded Sharia law is since it only punishes the woman. If a man goes and has a crap load of affairs he's not going to get canned. The women he slept with will probably be the ones punished for sleeping with a married man. r****ded law is r****ded

    Why wasn't her partner caned as well? Adultery requires two to tango, so why not a double flagellation? If the partner were male, perhaps he should get a couple of solid whacks upside his non-thinking head by the husband.

    Doesn't matter whether she is divorcing her husband. If she is sentenced for adultery, her partner should get the same punishment. Oh, I forgot. You are opposed to equal rights where women are concerned.

    It's in a different forum...why isn't it in D&D?

    There are plenty of aspects of Sharia law that are opt-ed into by women. So let's be clear about that. I even said the caning was bad in my prior post - so not sure what that stuff is you wrote up there.

    And the laws out of the Old Testament are still practiced in some places. And a few hundred years ago, people were burned on stakes as witches or for being adulters - far worse than canings in my opinion, all under the guise of christianity.

    No one is justifying Sharia law. I am just pointing out the gross hyprocrisy in those who keep on attacking Islam because of it's blacks eyes. guess what, the whole world has black eyes. If you are going to focus on one, than it does show some kind of bias.

    That's all I am saying.

    There are several posters here who regard Sharia law as a central part of Islam.

    Clearly, he intended to say no one is justifying THIS Sharia.

    There isn't any ONE sharia framework. It's practiced differently based on culture, sect, branch, etc.

    Just within Sunni Islam there are at least 5 Sharia frameworks.

    To clarify for you, Sharia actually MEANS law.

    Sharia actually refers to the law allegedly derived from the Quran and maybe also subsequent materials. 99% of the differences in sharia frameworks stem from subsequent materials.

    To summarize, the source is not always the same, the framework is not always the same, and even within each source/framework the interpretation is not the same. People within a branch of a sect disagree with each other regarding what is sharia.

    So for you to say there are people here who consider sharia central to their religion is meaningless. It is like saying you (ATW) consider law to be central to a judicial system.

    If you are accusing anyone in this thread of saying that caning women for adultery is a part of sharia, and that they are followers of this sharia, then even I would like to know which moron you're talking about.
