Trevor Blake: Priorities
[LINK-ZUM]
ADNKronos: A court in the Iran's second largest city, Mashad, has sentenced to death by stoning a mother-of-three for having an extra-marital affair, an Iranian newspaper reported Friday. The daily Quds said the married woman's lover had confessed to having had sex with her and that the court sentenced him to 100 lashes. There are currently eight women in Iranian prisons waiting to be executed by stoning, a practice usually reserved for those found guilty of adultery according to the Islamic republic's laws.
Chicago Sun-Times: So long, Halloween parade. Farewell, Santa's gift shop. The holiday traditions are facing elimination in some Oak Lawn schools this year after complaints that the activities are offensive, particularly to Muslim students. [Articles continue at links. It seems that other people being free to celebrate or have their own superstitions is intolerable to Muslims, while public whippings and stoning are just fine as long as they occur in-house. The Muslim world has managed to roust thousands of people around the world to protest cartoons. Why can't it manage to raise a feeble finger to stop its brothers and sisters from killing each other? Islam does not deserve consideration as a moral agent. - Trevor Blake]
