Horrified by the recent murder of Kawthar al-Husayjawi, one of her female relatives describes what happened – and her fears for other women and girls forced into early marriage in Iraq
The recent push in NC to essentially allow people to murder women that try to abort their pregnancy is based on an extreme distortion of Christianity. It’s fair to say this is the current state of the religion and it’s fair to say this is an unholy bastardization of the religion. In either of these extremes it’s clear that someone’s ideology is taking priority over their humanity.
By “extreme distortion” don’t you mean “following the supplied manual”? Isn’t the peace and love hippy shit the actual distortion? Yahweh is a spiteful, vengeful, mean god after all.
As a non-american, it took me a detour to the all-feed to recignize NC. I agree with everything you said, and I don’t want to - in any form or shape - absolve the misanthropic facists or their spitefilled useful, radicalized idiot “soldies” by pointing out this religion.
I do however take an issue in the “unholy alliance” (europes) “left” has made with Islam some time ago. This alliance is implicitly understood by basically everyone, but only solemnly mentioned (especially in a critial light) in left circles, although I read some excellent essays about it.

Exactly

God is, but he clearly says in the bible vengeance is his domain (Romans 12:19) and humans aren’t allowed to do it. That’s the kinda dick he is.
Not sure what Islam’s bible says; it’s one of the few I haven’t actually read in any capacity.
I understood it directly incited stonings
