I don't give a shit about your 'oh this isn't the ultimate caliphate run 110% under pure Islamic law'. These are countries where they enforce their own rule of Sharia and Islamic law.
It's not an argument I'm making in defence of anything, or as an attempt to explain anything. A country can not be called a "muslim country" when there is an independant government and judiciary.
It's as simple as that really. There can be countries with a majority of muslims, but they are by definition not "muslim" countries.
Now why shouldn't it affect people in real life? Why shouldn't people say 'Oh, that's wrong how they're killing that person for leaving Islam' or 'Should they really be hanging that 17 year old boy for being queer?" etc
Also, when you say "they" who're you talking about?
Islam as a religion, based purely on the Qur'an makes no mention of apostasy as a capital crime. Personally, I do not see such barbaric laws being implemented in a truly muslim country. Again, what you fail to understand is this doesn't affect the people who are responsible for these atrocities. Namely the dictatorships in the middle east and the US. But these threads promote bigotry towards Islam in general, especially when taken out of context .
PS. Is it really necessary to constantly interject bullshit or is it out of a necessity as you would have no logical counter points?
I'm pretty sure I've countered every point you've made thus far.
Islam does not promote or condone this sort of barbarism.
