Good question, I'm not sure that I ever claimed that there were a set of 21st century values, but perhaps there are themes such as:
- human rights (equality for women, gays, Jews and so on)
Do you value free speech? Equal rights for all? Secular government? Freedom of religion?
(If you do, then you SUPPORT criticism of religion, equal rights for women and gays, support for Jews, the denial of Sharia, and you support apostasy.)
Of course it's possible to support some of those, but not all.
How about equality for women and Jews and gays? If Sharia was the law of the land, then in many important respects, the law would view women as worth half or a third as much as a man. Does that seem okay to you? Again, these are core values we're discussing, and I know they're not the easy ones to discuss, so I appreciate your responses!
Question : Why always jews in particular ? Are you trying to say something ?
I would understand if you ask about hindus or buddhists are they are more and more in Africa and Middle east and they are not from the "People of the Book".
I could have understand this question : what about the rights of polytheists, what about the rights of the atheists ?
I can understand the question about gays too as in the Quran it doesn't say a lot about them.
But the jews and the women ... and you say that you read the Quran ? Really ?
But the answers are in the first sourates !
