Oh yeah? Then why did they feel compelled to kill a young woman for the "horrible crime" of not covering her hair?

> You're the one projecting here.

Nope, it's definitely you. All that gibbering about STDs... It's not actually mandatory for Westerners to have unprotected sex with every woman whose hair we can see.

And posting a YT playing list of some little scraggly-bearded mufti wannabe mullah spouting medieval superstition, as if that supports your position? It only further cements how wrong you are.

Why are you asking me? Did I defend the corruption of such a regime anywhere in what I wrote? In fact, I stated the opposite. The incident should be investigated, and those responsible should face justice.

No one said it is mandatory, but the results are clear for spreading immorality in the land.

Your last statement is pure bigotry and Islamophobic and racist. If you don't want to learn, I hope someone else who comes across this conversation has an open mind.

I well understand the frustration of being in the minority among an internet community, but you can't post flamewar comments like this to HN, and you did it repeatedly and egregiously in this thread. We end up having to ban accounts that post like this because the threads it leads to are so destructive of the community.

I don't like to ban people for expressing minority points of view, but your conduct in this thread was way past unacceptable in its own right. Please don't do this again, and please avoid religious arguments generally—they just lead to hellish flamewars and are always off topic.

Edit: actually, since you have a history of doing this and ignoring our requests to stop, I've banned this account. More at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33174051.

Flamewar comments like you posted in this thread are completely unacceptable on HN and will get you banned here, regardless of how you feel about someone else's religion.

Religious flamewar is a hell particularly to be avoided. No more of this, please.
