"The Islamic Society of Boston, the mosque attended by Boston Marathon bombing suspects Tamerlan and Dzhokar Tsarnaev, posted an article on its website in September 2004 that advocated for the beating of women as a last resort to force them to behave.

The Cambridge, Massachusetts-based mosque posted an English translation of Saudi cleric Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajid’s 1997 work, “The Muslim Home: 40 Recommendations in Light of the Quran and Sunnah,” which the mosque headlined, “40 Recommendations for the Muslim Home.”

“Hinting at punishment is an effective means of discipline, so the reason for hanging up a whip or stick in the house was explained in another report, where the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: ‘Hang up the whip where the members of the household can see it, for this is more effective in disciplining them,’” the article states.

“Seeing the means of punishment hanging up will make those who have bad intentions refrain from indulging in bad behaviour, lest they get a taste of the punishment. It will motivate them to behave themselves and be good mannered,” it says."

I find ALL religions to be equally abhorrent because- among other things- they all advocate following the precepts of an invisible being. Religions have led to human sacrifices, to mass slaughter, and to the founding of tyrannies.
Quote:

An Evangelical Christian pastor and his wife advocate using a “switch” and rubber plumber’s tubing as whips, and withholding food from young children as biblically-approved discipline methods, calling their tactics, “the same principles the Amish use to train their stubborn mules.”
Please, let us junk ALL religions into the dust-bin of history.

Bill Maher agrees with you on that. He's probably the only liberal in America that does, or at least had the guts to say it in public.

I thought this was a GREAT part of the show!

Last night Bill Maher had Glenn Greenwald on his show. Maher, a self-professed atheist who thinks religion is poison but thinks Israel is wonderful got a big surprise.

Much has been written about Maher and his special loathing of Islam and much of it is fair. But this segment is especially telling. The whole 9:00 piece is worth watching but things really get rolling around the 5:00 mark. Greenwald thoroughly takes Maher to task for his blatant disregard of history and his “my side is better therefore we can do what we want to whomever we want” attitude. The video speaks for itself so I won’t say much more about it except that Greenwald’s deconstruction of Maher proves that the essence of Maher’s thinking is as irrational as the religions he so often disparages.

Well, I guess the rightwing doesn't like to see their favorite Zionist get bitch-slapped around the TV studio.

Some parts of all religions are the same. All believe in a divine entity(ies) that have had a hand in the creation of the world.

But of course from then on, there is much variety in beliefs.

and to be fair, they didn't recommend this course of action. They posted a translation of a bestselling Islamic text on their website.

I think this is the same mosque that threw Tamerlan out because they commended a non muslim.

Perhaps a variety of views have been respresented by this Mosque over the years.

In any case, it doesn't appear as if either bomber suspect were regular visitors.

There are three parts to religion, IMHO:

A reliance in belief and a denial of daily observation.
A statement of what is right and what is wrong. (ethics)
An explanation of the world. (primitive science)

Without that belief in belief, religion becomes just a system of ethics and a primitive science. But once you add belief to the mix, you have primed people to follow whatever doctrine is given to them even if it contradicts what they see and hear, and NOT ASK QUESTIONS. Once people aren't ASKING QUESTIONS, then religion (1) stops being self-correcting and (2) is prone to creating all kinds of destructive beliefs which it's followers then adhere to.

Basically ANY system which creates unwavering, unquestioning support is dangerous. That is why I find rappy's belief in trickle-down to be equivalent to the belief in sacrificing babies to Moloch.

In that sense, ALL religions are the same. AND, if you look at history, you'll see that ALL beliefs are used, at one point or another, for very destructive purposes- even supposedly pacifistic ones like Buddhism.
