Yeah, that’s probably not the best way to dispel the notion that Islam is a savage, ignorant religion. 

Let’s talk about thievery. Suppose you have a desperately ill child and the only hope for it is to steal the medicine. You do so, are found out, and your hand is cut off. Does stealing to save the life merit that punishment?

And even if it didn't mutilating someone for such a crime is barbaric

Agreed, I’m just pointing out that not all crimes are created equal, and that a blanket punishment for a given crime can never be just.

As another example, suppose I steal your car for no other reason than it’s a really cool car and I really want it. On the other hand, suppose I steal a packet of pencils from a local shop just because I want some pencils.

Both of these are theft, but to claim (as Winterhold seems to be doing) that they merit exactly the same punishment is purely stupid.

Makes me glad I’m not a Muslim.

Sadly, though, labels DO rule. In a very harsh and detrimental fashion.

What a nightmare Winterhold proposes. All the more reason to oppose the cruel ideas of Islam.
