Or did you perhaps hope your tacit approval being banished to the "extremism exposed" section made it go away? Perhaps you could interpret for me what you meant when you said:
"The truth is, we are talking about whether or not muslims have the right to introduce hudud apostasy and adultery laws on themselves, and only on themselves."
Sorry Pete, I take it back. You don't remember wrong, you just can't comprehend basic English.
If you can be bothered trawling through that tedious thread (don't blame you if you don't) you will see that I explicitly stated my objection to such an idea. But it doesn't mean that the Chinese and Indian Malaysians don't accept that idea.
Seems you are simply running from the false prophet Muhammad's anti-religion of Islam again. I don't know what Chinese have to do with the death penalty for apostasy in Islam. Few things are more Islamic than punishing, even threatening on pain of death by statute, those that desire to leave Muhammad's cult, as attested by 1400 years of Islamic history and many Islamic countries today. Middle East Islamic nation States
in the cradle of Muhammadanism that GET Islam:
http://www.falseprophetmuhammad.com/muslim_persecution_of_christians.htm#death_p...Iran – illegal (death penalty)[13][14][15]
Egypt – illegal (3 years' imprisonment)[15]
Pakistan – illegal (death penalty[15] since 2007)
United Arab Emirates – illegal (3 years' imprisonment, flogging)[16]
Somalia – illegal (death penalty)[17]
Afghanistan – illegal (death penalty, although the U.S. and other coalition members have put pressure that has prevented recent executions)[18][19]
Saudi Arabia – illegal (death penalty, although there have been no recently reported executions)[15][20]
Sudan – illegal (death penalty, although there have only been recent reports of torture, and not of execution)[21][22]
Qatar – illegal (death penalty)[23]
Yemen – illegal (death penalty)[23]
Malaysia – illegal in five of 13 states (fine, imprisonment, and flogging)[24][25]
Maldives - see article
Mauritania – illegal (death penalty if still apostate after 3 days)[26]
Jordan – possibly illegal (fine, jail, child custody loss, marriage annulment) although officials claim otherwise, convictions are recorded for apostasy[28][29][30]
Oman – legal in criminal code, but according to the family code, a father can lose custody of his child[31]
The threat of State sponsored murder, as well as lesser penalties imposed on people, for simply exercising their God-given right to free exercise of religion and self-determination, like in your own country of Malaysia.
So then you are saying that in your opinion.....
"The truth is, we are talking about whether or not muslims have the right to introduce hudud apostasy and adultery laws on themselves, and only on themselves."
..... that Muslims absolutely DO NOT have the right to introduce "hudud apostasy and adultery laws on themselves" (which in reality means imposing them forcefully on those that disagree).
