You could probably find people pretty easy in the south who would be for something like this in our country.

No. That's a false equivalency. Most Bible Thumpers still think we live in the land of the free and what you do in your bedroom is your business. They know its going on regardless. It's not anywhere near on the same level as it is in the Middle East.

shite, the most hardcore Baptist I ev r knew believed that he'd go to hell if he drank a beer (in college) and we still found he had googled lesbian porn.

Or why they want to let them come over here and bring their shithole ways with them.

They threw a holy shitfit when the Supreme Court struck down sodomy laws. They threw a holy shitfit when the Supreme Court struck down laws prohibiting birth control. They threw a holy shitfit when the Supreme Court struck down laws against interracial marriage. Most Bible thumpers think what you do in the bedroom is totally their business.

Half a percent at best. 65-70% of the population? No.

Yeah, like 50 years ago.

Well, it's still their business what they do in the bedroom, but they still want them to pay some sort of a price for it. Not legal ramifications, but one where you bring new life as god intended.

That's just racism. They may be Bible Thumpers, but I don't think it has much to do with the actual Bible. It's just them being racists.

Dubai and Abu Dhabi are far from shitholes. Both are pretty awesome places, well except when they do crap like this. I wonder where in UAE it actually happened.


That's like saying Germany 1940 was an awesome place except when they throw you into the concentration camp.

Or a black guy in America not that long ago or even now some might say, especially in parts of our states. I am sure Berlin was a nice city if you weren't Jewish then too, lol.

Dubai and Abu Dhabi are extremely nice cities. That's why they have huge tourism from non muslims even with dumb shite like this. Parents lived in Dubai for over a decade, it's a pretty interesting place, just like backwoods Bama.

Pretty much like speeding tickets in small towns. If a local is stopped, they will probably not get a ticket... If they do, they would get it fixed.. But if you are not a local, then you are paying for a speeding ticket.

You might be saying this as a joke, but there are people (especially baptist, pentecostals, etc from the South) who are absolutely against the idea of someone getting knocked up out of wedlock and would support some type of punishment for those who do.. But at the very least, they will believe god will punish that person and would see anything bad that would happen to that person as them being punished.

I think that these people are comfortable with the fact that God will take care of them eventually. Sure they'd outlaw abortion and take the pill away, but I doubt they'd execute anyone like they do in the Middle East.

Evangelicals deep down think people can be redeemed for even the worst of actions. If you insult the prophet or leave the faith, then in the Middle East you'd be killed for it. Most evangelicals want to persuade you by saying how loving Jesus is. Islamists on the other hand want you killed for directly insulting the faith.

It's apples and oranges.

And these Yahoos and Saudi Arabia aren't included in the Muslim ban.
