Shafia Honor Killings

For every imam out there tonight defending Islam, there are thousands of Muslims who hear very different words from the Quran. The same is true within Christianity, Judaism, and every faith on the planet. The sectarian nature of religions leaves the door open for a culture (or individual) to interpret the Holy Books as they wish. Whether honor killings are a part of Islam or not is irrelevant. Like so many other murderous options, it’s the interpretation of the ‘Holy Word’ that’s important.

A new Christian tactic?

I'm used to the semi-weekly "You're going to Hell" e-mail, as well as the regular belligerent "You have no idea what you're talking about" comments. But this latest round seems to be trying to more discouraging than contrary.

God Says Kill Horny Women

It took me a while to figure out why religions hate extramarital sex. For the longest time I just figured they were a bunch of up-tight prudes that couldn’t get laid and thus didn’t want anyone else to get laid either. Granted, a lot of them these days do fit into that category, but I don’t think that’s how the whole thing started.

Don’t Wish Me a Merry Christmas

This whole thing gets even sillier when you know you're saying it to someone who doesn't practice your religion. It's exactly the same as insisting that you should have to say 'Happy Rosh Hashana', 'Merry Makar Sankranti', and 'Have a nifty Nisf Sha'ban'.
