    I understand that Islam doesn’t support anything like that in the scriptures, just like many other religions.

    But religion has been used for milleniums as a cover for atrocious actions. At this point, they are not separable. So when is it enough?

    Religion is inherently conservative. And we see everyday what conservatism does to the planet and the society.

      But don’t non-religious dictatorships also commit atrocious actions? In the end a cover is just that: a cover.

        Just because people die from heart attacks doesn’t mean cancer does not kill.
