Religion + Law = Torture

Posted by Formo-Mormo on May 10th, 2009 Comments (1)

What do you get when you mix Sharia religous law with government rulers? Human torture.

Mohamed Omar Ismael stole $90 from a saving account, local reports said.

Mohamed was sentenced to the amputation of his right-hand, and the punishment was carried out in public in the city center where a large crowd of people watched on as Islamists carried out the sentence.

Al Shabab, a Muslim group in Somalia has instituted the religious law to be carried out in this region.

Under strict Sharia law, theft is sentenced by severing their hand. The death penalty is meted out for murder, rape, armed robbery, apostasy and drug trafficking.

Apostasy?! Apostasy is the rejection of one’s own religion. So under this Muslim, faith based law, the punishment for renouncing your faith is DEATH.

This seems to be a good reason to keep church and state seperate, in ALL cases.
