If the offending imam had committed his acts of pedophilia in a country with a high degree of sharia compliance, then of course the imam would not have been convicted at all, as the founder of Islam consummated his own marriage to his child bride Aisha when she was but nine (Sahih Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 64). Not that the British government or its legal system is about to acknowledge this, of course. Note that the convictions are for crimes that occurred 25-30 years ago, and no one in the Muslim community stepped forward in all that time save one brave victim herself. At the lightning rate that sharia is advancing in Britain, however, what are the chances of another imam being similarly convicted in the U.K. in 25 to 30 years' time? From "Imam found guilty of abusing young girls", by Scott D'arcy, Swindon Advertiser, 15 Why would he be remorseful when he is following his own (so-called) prophet's example? http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/9307850.Imam_found_guilty_of_abusing_young_girls/
He'd better shift to Roman Catholism and what is sexually normal amongst the holy men, hadn't he? Don't you ever get tired of this tedious bogwalling?
No not really, if you can make a thread about roman Catholics abusing young boys I can make a thread about Imams, or does your double standard of '' no harm done if done by Muslims'' also apply at sexual abuse?
With all the cases of pedophilia from the christians, I would have thought by now we would understand that religion is a mechanism frequently used to abuse children. This is not about islam, it's about religion.
Apparently there is a general problem related to religious leaders sexually assualting children regardless of their specific faith. http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2004/06/25/1088144974468.html http://jessicaarbour.blogspot.com/2010/11/pedophile-priest-protected-by.html http://theforbiddentruth.net/3432-another-pedophile-rabbi-arrested.html This is a matter for law enforcement and is not specific to any particular religion as members of all religions appear to be guilty of pedophilia.
Dennis Hastert (ex Republican speaker of the house) was raping young boys he was coaching. He then had the nerve to vote to impeach Clinton for getting an extramarital BJ. Child abuse is child abuse. Hastert got lucky, he should have been enjoying a solid homosexual prison relationship.
