I am so surprised that the world reacted in the way they did. How did they find out? I have no idea. We thought it was kind of a secret. Now, we will not kill gays. But, of course we will imprison them for life, and torture them. Human rights? What is that?

 

Sharia is the most heinous form of law, on this planet, and must be resisted with every nanogram of our beings. It is the opposite of anything spiritual. It is a man made edict, formulated by very insecure men, who have no self esteem, and alot of hatred in their tiny, black hearts. The world has no place for a belief system like this one. Extremism is ugly, no matter what it is, or where it comes from. 

 

This guy is a hedonist. He lives in an ivory tower. He does as he pleases, yet imposes these silly, draconian, cruel, inane policies on his people. Keep him isolated. Boycott anything and everything that this sorry man and this sorry nation owns. 

Will he also not kill those accused of adultery/sex outside wedlock??

Those who had the influence about the boycott should sustain it 

Other countries should also boycott the oil and gas from the country, or is that too hard.

The small Southeast Asian country sparked an outcry when it rolled out its interpretation of Islamic laws, or sharia, on April 3, punishing sodomy, adultery and rape with death, including by stoning.

So they were equating gay sex and adultery with rape.  That's just so incredibly backwards and sick.  These extremist views have no place in civilized society in the year 2019...if it ever did.

No homosexuality was a separate charge, previously the sharia law only applied to Muslims, but was extended to all those charged.

The amputation of limbs for theft remains on the books, as does death for adultery and rape
