Sometimes people really are evil

Life of abuse from people Michael Gilbert called family

It was a gruesome, squalid end to years of abuse and humiliation.

The headless, dismembered body of Michael Gilbert, 26, was found in a Bedfordshire lake in May 2009.

This discovery would lead police to uncover how the vulnerable young man was kept as a domestic slave by a family and tortured for his benefit payments.

Luton Crown Court heard that for years he was regularly subjected to sickening assaults "for entertainment" by members of the Watt clan and their associates.

Now James Watt, 27, James's girlfriend Natasha Oldfield, 29, and Nichola Roberts, 21, have all been found guilty of his murder.

Is Islam incompatible with modern secular democracy?

The BNP have said Islam is incompatible with modern secular democracy.

============================================

Do you believe this is accurate?

Is there anything about the UK's current system that Muslims would want to change or is everything compatible with Islam as it stands?

If Muslims held the majority of political power, what changes would be made if any?

What would the main differences of judgement be on these matters (fiqh) between the different Muslim sects?

An interesting figure, no?

I find two things peculiar about him:

1. He was a part of the caliphate movement.
2. While he was part of a non violence movement, he considered violence against a side with over whelming force to also be non-violence.

Iranian cleric blames quakes on promiscuous women

published by You on 20 April, 2010 - 19:19

Promiscuous women are responsible for earthquakes, a senior Iranian cleric has said.

Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi told worshippers in Tehran last Friday that they had to stick to strict codes of modesty to protect themselves.

"Many women who do not dress modestly lead young men astray and spread adultery in society which increases earthquakes," he said.

Tens of thousands of people have died in Iran earthquakes in the last decade.

Mr Sedighi was delivering a sermon on the need for a "general repentance" by Iranians.

"What can we do to avoid being buried under the rubble? There is no other solution but to take refuge in religion and to adapt our lives to Islam's moral codes," he said.
