We need to talk about Islam's human rights problems all the time everywhere because that's the only way these problems will ever see the light of day. In Muslim countries these problems are always buried and there is a conspiracy to keep them buried so that no social progress can be made. That's immensely disrespectful to the victims of these problems.

- hackuser 10y agoIf you want to say certain governments have human rights problems, and we should speak out, I agree; some are in predominately Muslim countries but most are not. If you want to say some religion and its members promote human rights problems, I say that comment is ignorant and discriminatory. Ironically, by spreading that in our society, you are creating human rights problems.

Would love to see imprisoned for life or executed the people who justify and/or enforce such laws such as the current Iranian government. > In contrast to human rights activists, Islamic scholars and Islamist political parties consider 'universal human rights' arguments as imposition of a non-Muslim culture on Muslim people, a disrespect of customary cultural practices and sexual codes that are central to Islam. I mean to disrespect customary cultural practices and sexual codes central to Islam. I mean to say according to the above interpretation the sexual codes central to Islam have no place in modern society and neither does the enforcement of customary cultural practices as they are repressive and a violation of universal human rights.
