Quote# 58837

A district court in Saudi Arabian capital Jeddah sentenced a pregnant gang -rape victim to 100 lashes and one year imprisonment after the court pronounced her of committing adultery.

The 23-year old woman was reportedly assaulted after accepting a lift from a man in Jeddah. She was taken into a house and was raped by the man and his four friends. The woman after getting pregnant went to King Fahd Hospital for Armed Forces in an attempt to carry out an abortion where her 'crime' was revealed.

The judge who pronounced the verdict said that the unmarried woman had committed adultery as she became pregnant after a forced sexual intercourse. She will be sent to a prison outside Jeddah to spend the one year imprisonment where she will be flogged after delivering her child.

According to Islamic Sharia law, The testimony of four male witnesses is the standard for establishing guilt in sexual offenses. If four male witnesses do not come forward and the rape victim becomes pregnant, her pregnancy becomes evidence that she has committed adultery.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is what may become of the US if fundies take over.

I've always had to wonder if the person who wrote that law had serious voyeuristic tendancies.

That judge could do with several thousand lashings himself.

@Doctor Whom:

There's no need to bring Judeo-Christian beliefs into this. This has nothing to do with them.

And no, I'm not trying to defend them. I'm just saying let's focus on Islam for now. Don't worry, someone will post something from RR soon enough.

What a way to keep women in their place. Hold them down at every turn and blame them for everything..self esteem becomes non-existant.. and then they are your property.

DISGUSTING.

This is just an opinion. Judaism, Christianity, Islam, all consider the Old Testament a holy text. Mainstream Judaism takes it with the biggest grain of salt (considers it in light of the customs and beliefs of those times, not as a rulebook for modern civilization) and Islam takes it the most seriously. While Christian Fundamentalism is heading slowly but surely in the same direction, it is nowhere near as barbaric (yet). A gay couple, or outspoken female teacher, could live openly in a city in the bible belt, and wouldn't even think of trying that in the most tolerant of the Muslim states.

This is why I don't believe in a god or gods, fundies of every religion. If a deity gave a crap, even the tiniest crap about people, disgusting things like this wouldn't happen.

Yet another reason why we need to reduce our use of oil. If they're going to behave like 10th century barbarians, they ought to live like they are in 10th century, too and not have fancy homes and ride around in expensive cars.

Hmm, I was going to submit this when I saw it, but I really was too fucking disgusted. This really is reprehensible and disturbing almost beyond comprehension.
