Hey, it's India. The fact that they didn't gang rape her first is a sign of progress.

Exodus 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

They sound like good Christians to me.

Human progress moves slower than molasses!

But at the same time, they want evolution to hurry up and transform a chimp into a human in front of their eyes!

I'm sure gods aren't nearly so easily upset as people seem to think.
