So, is this AWWRIGHT?

In another classic example of travesties that are miraculously AWWRIGHT if done in the name of religion, we have a case of a girl being stoned to death because some religious scumbags think that they have the right to dictate morality - and everyone went along with it. Remember, it's religion! It's AWWRIGHT!

Stoning people in the 21st century? Despicable, slimy, and scummy - if done outside the context of religion. Where religion is concerned, we have this:

A young woman recently stoned to death in Somalia first pleaded for her life, a witness has told the BBC.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me," she said, according to the man who wanted to remain anonymous. A few minutes later, more than 50 men threw stones.

To those who think that religion had nothing to do with it, do you really think that 50 men would throw stones to kill someone in public while being cheered on? Do you think they did it for the lulz? Without the justification from religion, there would have been no reason for this senseless murder.

It doesn't matter what particular flavor of religion this incident involved. The point that must be repeated is that religion provides justification for doing things that people would normally consider heinous and unthinkable. To the brainwashed, theistarded mind, religion apparently makes things AWWRIGHT.

The rest of the article truly doesn't need much comment. The reason things like this are still happening in the 21st century is religion. Stop drinking the Kool-Aid and look at the facts, appeasers.

Human rights group Amnesty International says the victim was a 13-year-old girl who had been raped.
Initial reports had said she was a 23-year-old woman who had confessed to adultery before a Sharia court.
Numerous eye-witnesses say she was forced into a hole, buried up to her neck then pelted with stones until she died in front of more than 1,000 people last week.

Does it really matter if she was 13 or 23? ~~WTF? Nothing would justify something like this.~~ Religion? It's AWWRIGHT!

However, Amnesty said it had learned she was 13, and that her father had said she was raped by three men.
When the family tried to report the rape, the girl was accused of adultery and detained, Amnesty said.

This is the 21st century, folks. Really. No kidding.

The witness said people crowding round to see the execution said it was "awful".
"People were saying this was not good for Sharia law, this was not good for human rights, this was not good for anything."
But no-one tried to stop the Islamist officials, who were armed, the witness said. He said one boy was shot in the confusion.

Of course nobody tried to stop them. It was done in the name of religion, so it was perfectly AWWRIGHT! How about a baby fuck? It's AWWRIGHT too if done in the name of religion, amirite? We should just let the poor theistards practice their religion and continue to appease them, amirite?

According to Amnesty International, nurses were sent to check during the stoning whether the victim was still alive. They removed her from the ground and declared that she was, before she was replaced so the stoning could continue.

The nurses were just doing their religious duty. They were in no way accomplices to a murder, and there is no reason to charge them with any crime whatsoever. There is no need to charge the murderers with any crime. There is no need to do anything about the fact that this shit still happens even today. There is no reason to speak out and stand up. There is no reason not to appease the religious sickos. Amirite?

Remember, kids: If it's religion, it's AWWRIGHT!
