Quiet master @rok-sivante, you need not be surprised about this. It's not what you imagine. Yes, although I do not know what you think about their explanation of Aceh. Aceh is tolerant, sharia law is applied only to Muslims only, not to non-Muslims. You can go to Aceh to enjoy the beauty of Pulau Weh, Sabang. For culture and law we just need to adjust it, and respect what is going on in Aceh. Not so scary and scary. believe me !!!

Thanks...

Quiet???

I’m not sure if you’ve mistranslated or misstepped there, but telling me “quiet” on my blog is definitely not something you want to do again.

A penalty of 100 canines in public for choosing to consume alcohol - which can be done in nearly every other country in the world, as part of one’s basic human rights to choose how they may experience their own body - does not exactly sound like “tolerance.”

Maybe not so bad for non-Muslims. But for those who are born Muslim...?

Denied such rights of personal choice - not that bad?

And if they don’t like it, they can just leave the Islamic faith...? Not from what I’ve heard. What is the penalty for that?

Still not so bad - born into a form of slavery to a repressive belief system, denied right to personal choice, faced with threat of violence if exercising personal choice...?

I dont think so. Islam lives by its religious rules and non-Muslims live with the rules of faith. Speaking of faith? Back to the man each how far he believes with what belief he has chosen. We ? as humans can only tolerate each other, respect and honor what has been their choice. How can we understand all this, and what exactly does human rights mean? how can we interpret the meaning of this sentence? Thanks for your respon @rok-sivante
