A new Pew Research analysis finds that as of 2012, nearly a quarter of the world’s countries and territories (22%) had anti-blasphemy laws or policies, and one-in-ten (11%) had laws or policies penalizing apostasy. The legal punishments for such transgressions vary from fines to death.

In many Islamic countries, child marriages are common practice. Girls far below the age of puberty are often forcibly married to older persons (sometimes in their 50s and later) for various personal gains by the girls' guardian or with the intention to preserve family honor by helping her avoid pre-marital sex.

I saw the thread linked to below, and it got me to thinking about where Muslims draw a line in the sand concerning their religion. On a scale of evil from 0 to 100 (I'll refer to this as "the scale of evil" for the rest of this post), I believe we can all agree that ISIS is about a 99.9.

Where do the countries mentioned in the article directly below rank on the scale of evil?
"Anti-blasphemy laws or policies," I'll give that a 90.
"Laws or policies penalizing apostasy," I'll give that a 95.
Death penalty for apostasy? I'll give that a 100 (higher than my overall score for ISIS).

At what point do we admit the elephant in the room? Only amoral people wouldn't stand in opposition to all of the things listed above.
Why aren't the Muslims who live in free countries against all of the atrocities that occur in Muslim countries? I'm sure there are many. However, I believe all moral people should be against those things.

What Islam needs to figure out fast is the WEST CAN'T tell and many are so angry they are gaining apathy.
