We don't run our justice system or our prisons that way in real life, why would we want them run that way in the ghost world?
What, Grand, you don't see the morality of torture? How?
Another thing that Muslim guys don't get is how the Islamic afterlife is awkward for women.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
