So who wants to play the "Let's just call it OK because it's their 'culture'" game?
I'm game to watch some people posit borderline socially intolerant arguments in favor of/or against systems of justice rooted in traditionally muslim cultures.
Kant, Kierkegaard, and Korsgaard have me bored to piss anyway.
what about the "Let's just call it NOT OK because it's not our 'culture'" game?

let's not be too harsh to judge the saudis, something good may come of it yet... the jews crucified jesus, and look what came out of that. two thousand years of slaughter and crusades are good for the economy.

I don't really think all those silly things, I just wanted you to think I did. Teehee. But it might backfire if this is posted on gray. So we'll see. Edit: See, fail.  |
I've not been to the Middle East yet, but from what I have seen and read, I would liken their social structure to that of fundamentalist Christian sects in America. Yeah, I said "sects". Get over it.
Major difference being that most of the governments in the Middle East are also completely run by these fundamentalists. As if Nazi Germany weren't enough of a warning of the dangers of allowing a Pseudo-religious movement to seize total control of your Government, several thousand years of Islamic law rooted in countries such as Saudi Arabia do nothing to preserve modern sensibilities of human rights nor do they serve what has been proven as a "bettering" sort of Governmental process. I mean, once these countries are bled dry of oil, what will they really have left? Bickering warlords in a desert wasteland. It will just be central Africa all over. Not to say that western countries would have a whole lot left if a major resource industry simply dried up, but I would like to think its people would be far better off with a sense of civil duty and genuine patriotism, however gilded it may be, than many countries that are borderline fart-powered by systems of faith. Or maybe I am completely wrong. I suppose we will find out someday.
Whatever, my point is that the rise of faith-based governmental policy is proportional to a nation's downfall. We would do well to monitor the US Midwest far more closely, as its people seem to be the most representative of this sort of idiot policy.
In the end though, humans just don't know how to govern themselves on a mass scale.
