Rilwayne001 and friendchoice will tell you that they understand Islam better than the Islamic scholars in Saudi Arabia who promulgated those intolerant laws. They will tell you that the custodians of the religion misinterpreted the Koran and it is them that have a better understanding of it. Bunch of retarded hypocrites. angry
