My wonderful groupies love to talk about me more than the subject at hand. I just adore the adoration they bestow on me with every post. I can truly relate to Trump; now everywhere you go, they talk about you.
I was looking at the chart you posted, @Karacal. It looks like we do a lot of the same things here.
Rape? Yeah, that goes on.
Pedophilia Oh god, we do that Epstein sex ring. all kinds of sex trafficking.
Jihad We do this to a point. U.S. law enforcement agencies, including the DOJ, work to protect American Muslims from hate crimes, violence, and discrimination. Following threats, many police departments offer increased protection for mosques. However, this relationship is complex, with past reports of discriminatory surveillance by some departments.
Oppression of women. Oh, we do this. Women working the same job as men get paid less.
Slavery. Hey, we got one right…
Honor killings: while the number is low, this still goes on here in the US.
Hostage taking… I guess this is who you talk to. Right now ICE could be considered doing this. about 10,000 a year in some reports.
Female Genital Mutilation… Depends on how you want to look at it with the schools and trans operations.
Burning people alive. Around 4,000 a year in the US, some due to arson. Not sure if that counts. I would say no and give us a pass.
Beheading Well, I am glad to say we got another one right. In small thanks to a couple people around here not being in power.

Looks like the U.S. is Sharia Lite

Except for the fact that here in the US things like beheading, burning at the stake, honor killings, (murder in general) forced female genital mutilation based on religious beliefs, general oppression of the female sex (CIS, but especially trans women) pedophilia, hostage taking (kidnapping) and Jihad (government sanctioned religious war)
Are
All
ILLEGAL!
So maybe sharia free?

Maybe we got this one wrong?
A 1927 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Buck v. Bell upheld states’ rights to sterilize people it considered “unfit” to reproduce, paving the way for the forced sterilization of immigrants, people of color, disabled people and other disenfranchised groups throughout the 20th century.

Not everything is as it seems in that article,….
For instance, the sighted cases are sterilization under medical duress, which as far as I’m aware is actually fairly common, not some systematic extermination effort against native Americans.
hell my whiter than white sister was told she’d never have a child after her drug dealer boyfriend gave her HPV in the 90s….
She has 5 children today.
The Supreme Court case was this;
Buck v. Bell was a landmark 1927 U.S. Supreme Court case that upheld a Virginia law allowing for the forced sterilization of individuals deemed “unfit” to procreate, specifically upholding the sterilization of Carrie Buck, a woman institutionalized for being "feebleminded“
Not something specifically targeting native Americans because of their ethnicity.

We call it the law. Sometimes they over lap or are the same. I guess one could call unconstitutional gun laws Sharia Lite. Then I don’t know Sharia law.

Aren’t both rooted in Judaism?
Yes however I don’t want to live under a Judaist Theocracy either. I prefer my laws to be based on the Golden Rule not the 613 rules G-d laid out for the Jews to follow.

Really? One murders people who stray the smallest amount.
Define strays the smallest amount? Because a Bill being drafted in Tennessee would label an abortion as homicide and would charge the mother with murder which is punishable in Tennessee with the death penalty. And I am pretty sure if we allowed a Theocracy to take hold in the United States we would not be that different than Iran even with a Christian Theocracy.

Brother, replace the Red Crescent and Star with the Blue Star of David and Female Genital Mutilation with Male Genital Mutilation and you have Judaism.

Abortion isn’t a religion…but nice try.
Opposition to abortion is absolutely tied to Evangelical Christianity, you can’t deny that laws that are written to prevent it are specifically in line with Evangelical belief.

I think it has to do with compassion more than religion. Compassion for a human life whether or not one thinks it’s alive or not.

Which becomes an argument on when human life begins, Evangelicals believe it begins on conception. Everybody else not so much.

Yeah I know, I think we all can agree it’s human. I don’t think it’s religious whether or not we have compassion for another human.

I wouldn’t spend my money on a car like that, but I certainly respect the craftsmanship, artistry, and creativity. The paint jobs on some of them are nothing short of art work.

Quarter mile for me is the goods compared to reaching the second floor!
