Default Re: Comparisons and degrees...

Mark: I have no love for Fox and CNN but be serious. In the USSR you could be killed for speaking your mind, and millions were. That rarely happens in the US and Western world these days (though it happens lots in Westen-sponsored regimes). It just isn't the same thing. There is a big problem with the mainstream media dissemintating misinformation and skewed versions of what's going on, but that is a different problem. You can still state the truth as you see it; you'll just have a hard time getting a lot of people to read it.
I agree with Tom that the vast majority of Msulims do not believe sharia entails the execution of adulterers.
