Well maybe I did call you a hyprocrit early, but I felt you where acting as one. Because when I brought up the france example, you didn't say anything like that is also stupid.
I agree that "whipping" is extreme. I think it is wrong. But that doesn't mean if people in Sudan think it is the right thing to do, I can make fun of them. You shouldn't assume that they are just idiots.

Yes it does. 

If more people pointed out the stupid things in the world it might be a better place.

I don't know, I guess I am sick of everyone making fun of anything going on in Africa.



True, but pointing them out and making fun of them are two seperate things. You can never make the world a better place by making fun of people's mistakes, I think that way at least

 If it makes you feel better I am extremely consistant.

I have a friend who makes cakes for competitions.  She always comes to me to get my opinion of her cakes because I am blunt and don't pull punches.  If I think it sucks I tell her point blank and fully realizing she just spent 8 hours making it.  She appreciates it because nobody else is willing to be honest with her and she needs the criticism to improve.  And she knows my expectations always increase.  If she does something well once I expect it to be better next time.

I'm not always at my bluntest but I try.

What kind of cake takes 8 hours to make? I wonder...

Islam desperately needs reform. And with today's global society, I think it will get it fast. A lot of confrontations along the way, though.



She has done some pretty crazy ones....

8 hours is pretty standard length if not on the short side.  I don't have any of her pictures but this is the type of details...

Oh, I can see now. That definitely took 8 hours to make. I wonder how it tastes ...

I would say the muslims would need reform more than islam. except malaysia and indonesia they live in the poorest parts in the world. There must be some reason behind it.
