The joys of Sharia law
14 year old Catholic girl abducted in Pakistan, Muslim captor ‘converts’ her to Islam and ‘marries’ her.

Pakistani judge rules the marriage valid ‘as long as she has had her first period’.


To put it in perspective this girl was born in 2005, AFTER this forum started.

Don't go judging other traditions, Jon ...

Oh, here's a piece from the WaPo by someone who is unlikely ever to return to that Godly country of Iran.

I loosened my hijab ...

Some obscene percentage of organized religion just seems like a set of justifications for an in-group to wield power over others, with an in-in-group of priests at the top enjoying the control.

This is unfortunately not an isolated incident.
There was a report from 2004 that estimated around ~1000 Hindu and Christian girls/women abducted a forced converted to Islam to marry Muslim men.

It’s worldwide problem. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bride_kidnapping

These barbaric practices should have no place in today’s world.
