This thread is entitled "Islam in a nutshell". It starts with a broad general accusation about the whole religion, "Apparantly beating a child to death over a 4 day period is AOK. But take off a headscarf to take a mugshot of the murderer and it's an insult to Islam?"

Yet in the article only the husband said that. Nobody quoted representing Islam supported the husband's viewpoint.

So how is what happened in the article remotely representative of, "Islam in a nutshell"? It's not.

Some pointing that out apparently puts a unwelcome speed bump under the "Muslims suck and here's more proof" bandwagon, inciting quite vitriolic and nasty personal posts.

Hope all good Christians were in church this Easter morning.
