Is it even proper to allow considerations of Quranic interpretation to overrule basic decency?
This is why it is so idiotic to base one's judgements on ancient scriptures. People would do much better to rely on common sense and empathy. Like the ancient roman criterion "what an honest person of good will would deem to be right", or words to that effect.
ISIS is what one should expect where scripture is allow to govern people's lives. It gives a dangerous sense of certainty.
