[Quranic Reflection]: Quran vs Hadith- why the Hadith is false

[Astreja]

This is not a thread about proving theism. For the purpose of this thread, assume there is an omniscient being...

No, I will *not* make that assumption. I choose to live under the assumption that hell-creating deities don't exist, and that there is no reason for worshipping such a monster "just in case."

Punishing a handful of thieves according to Islamic law will drastically decrease the occurence of robbery/burglary given the harsh nature of the punishment. That's the point of Islamic law, after all.

Unacceptable. It only takes one false accusation to maim an innocent man for life.

A man in jail is also a burden for society, the cost of incarceration is very high, too.

I prefer to pay a bit extra in taxes rather than having a severed hand on my conscience.

Then speak out against dismemberment punishments like hand amputations for theft -- now -- or STFU about "the high moral horse [sic]."

I wouldn't because I agree on the punishment.

You're a fucking monster, and I hope your life gets even shittier than it already is.
