    because we don't expect that kind of backward logic to be used as a justification.

    when in india we decided the practice of suti (sticking your wife on the pyre of the dead husband) was a pretty revolting habit............. so we stamped on it.

    widows have been happier creatures ever since.

    oh, we offended some cultural sensibilities and hanged a few miscreants in the process............. but i don't give a damn.

    Honour killing? Its murder, I don't care how you spin it. I feel the need for cultural revolutions.
