Eh - yes... I don't see where we differ in opinion? You indeed put forth as I say, that one should not look at "a culture", but at several reprobable acts, such as stoneing etc. I also agree with protest, but I hope you don't expect me to endorse protest that takes its protest as an excuse to judge an entire culture as a whole?

I may be misreading you dodge, but if I understand your first words, you accuse me of being cerebral to the issue rather than being emotional? The thing is, I believe in emotions, but not as the basis of moral superiority or discussion altogether. I mean, the "others" also "feel" very strongly about these issues (remember lynching mob for the Mohammed teddy bear?) - but does that make them right?

If the only reason you can find to be in favour or against something is how it "makes you feel", you might turn one way or the other. Reason gives the cause, emotion makes you support it. What do you think?
