Indonesia Sharia alert: A passionate public kiss could mean jail

Is a kiss worth five years in jail? One wonders how this sort of thing is going to play in Islamic France. From Reuters, with thanks to Nicolei:

Couples caught kissing passionately in public in Indonesia could spend five years in jail.

Members of parliament in the world's most populous Muslim country have proposed an anti-pornography bill that includes a ban on kissing on the mouth in public.

"I think there must be some restrictions on such acts because it is against our traditions of decency," said Aisyah Hamid Baidlowi, head of a parliamentary committee drafting the bill.

Heavy kissing could carry a maximum penalty of five years in jail or a 250 million rupiah ($29,000) fine. Anyone caught flashing would face similar penalties.

The bill also proposes bans on public nudity, erotic dances and sex parties, with jail terms ranging from three to 10 years. Watching such shows could lead to two years behind bars.

Indonesians have long followed a moderate version of Islam, although an emphasis on Muslim practices and identification with Islamic traditions have grown stronger in recent years.

Public displays of affection are frowned upon by many, though prostitution is rampant in many parts of the archipelago.

Muslim men are just terrified of women. Plus Muslim men must all be rapists just waiting to pounce on an uncovered woman because she 'inflamed' them.

The Koran is the product of a sick culture...

I can't imagine how a Muslim woman must feel. First, she is blamed for everything under the sun and denied her humanity, multilated so that she has no sexual response, isolated at home, with status less than that of a child. How can she be anything but a reproductive vessel, a thinking incubator who has been duped to accepting her role?

The price of Islamization is too horrible to visualize. Browbeatings, physically torture, humiliation and despair wll be the only role for Western women that have known freedom.

(By-the-way, for the edification of Islamists that might be reading, most Western women do not go to clubs or dress in skimpy cothing or fornicate.)

Wherever Sharia goes, pain, desperation, and humiliation will follow for all women.

These guys are a bunch of closet homosexuals. They object to public heterosexual interaction but have no probelm with homosexual ones. Take a look at this familiar thread. http://www.tnr.com/doc.mhtml?pt=F4bD483qZPViqE1CyQTDkh==. Islam is inimical to women. Never seen a religion that hates women as much as this one does.

What a society!

They produce nothing; they invent nothing; they develop nothing. They are parasites on the world, moralizing and denigrating while thinking of nothing but sex for which normal outlets are denied — so they do the next best thing. . .

PATHETIC!!!

It really has me perplexed that our western governments seem to be oblivious to the muslim mindset and religion(cult). They should be enacting legislation to prohibit this cult from being practiced in the civilized world, yet they not only allow it, they think it's legitimate!

Tabari IX:113 “Allah permits you to shut them in separate rooms and to beat them, but not severely. If they abstain, they have the right to food and clothing. Treat women well for they are like domestic animals and they possess nothing themselves. Allah has made the enjoyment of their bodies lawful in his Qur’an.”

Do they not read it's "scripture"?

Tabari I:280 “Allah said, ‘It is My obligation to make Eve bleed once every month as she made this tree bleed. I must also make Eve stupid, although I created her intelligent.’ Because Allah afflicted Eve, all of the women of this world menstruate and are stupid.”

Don't the governments of the free, supposedly intelligent western world monitor these things before letting them into the country?

Qur’an 4:11 “Allah directs you in regard of your Children’s (inheritance): to the male, a portion equal to that of two females…. These are settled portions ordained by Allah.”

Bukhari:V1B22N28 “The Prophet said: ‘I was shown the Hell Fire and the majority of its dwellers were women who are disbelievers or ungrateful.’ When asked what they were ungrateful for, the Prophet answered, ‘All the favors done for them by their husbands.’”

Why aren't womens groups screaming about this?

Muslim:B1N142 “‘O womenfolk, you should ask for forgiveness for I saw you in bulk amongst the dwellers of Hell.’ A wise lady said: Why is it, Allah’s Apostle, that women comprise the bulk of the inhabitants of Hell? The Prophet observed: ‘You curse too much and are ungrateful to your spouses. You lack common sense, fail in religion and rob the wisdom of the wise.’ Upon this the woman remarked: What is wrong with our common sense? The Prophet replied, ‘Your lack of common sense can be determined from the fact that the evidence of two women is equal to one man. That is a proof.’”

women are dumb and filthy animals....

Qur’an 4:43 “Believers, approach not prayers with a mind befogged or intoxicated until you understand what you utter. Nor when you are polluted, until after you have bathed. If you are ill, or on a journey, or come from answering the call of nature, or you have touched a woman, and you find no water, then take for yourselves clean dirt, and rub your faces and hands. Lo! Allah is Benign, Forgiving.” [The Qur’an claims women are unclean and polluted—worse than dirt.]

never show your face in public... and yet muslim women lie, and say it's a choice to wear a full body veil?

Qur’an 33:59 “Prophet! Tell your wives and daughters and all Muslim women to draw cloaks and veils all over their bodies (screening themselves completely except for one or two eyes to see the way). That will be better.”

Qur’an 4:15 “If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four witnesses from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death [by starvation] claims them.”

Soon, these Islamic laws will become entrenced into ours, because of the PC world we live in, we must respect their ways and abandon ours...

Bukhari:V3B48N826 “The Prophet said, ‘Isn’t the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?’ The women said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘This is because of the deficiency of a woman’s mind.’”

Ishaq:584 “Tell the men with you who have wives: never trust a woman.”
Ishaq:185 “In hell I saw women hanging by their breasts. They had birthed bastards.”

Qur’an 24:34 “Force not your slave-girls to whoredom (prostitution) if they desire chastity, that you may seek enjoyment of this life. [And here’s the freedom-to-pimp card:] But if anyone forces them, then after such compulsion, Allah is oft-forgiving.”

Ishaq:469 “The Apostle said, ‘Every wailing woman lies except those who wept for Sa’d.’”

Tabari VIII:62/Ishaq:496 “Ali [Muhammad’s adopted son, son-in-law, and future Caliph] said, ‘Prophet, women are plentiful. You can get a replacement, easily changing one for another.’”

And while we are on the topic of the sickness of Islamic sexual practices, animal sex seems to be a common practice as well. Muhammad even comments on it from his time, in that, if you have sex with your camel, you should kill it immediately afterwards...
I'm not inventing this, honest!

Nathan: thank you for posting this. Why do Muslim women continue to remain Muslim? Oh yes. They'll be killed if they don't if they don't follow the ravings of a madman from the desert.

Why do Muslims say their religion (Islam) is the best while in fact, Islam is dirty.

Nothing more I could say. Indonesia is full of rapists and animals who tried to ban public kissing and oral sex but in fact they raped chinese females. What a "holy" country created by their so-called "allah".
