Islamic sharia is still a very dangerous influence in Indonesia (via Jihad Watch):
Four couples have been caned with up to 20 lashes for having sex outside of marriage in Indonesia.When the horrific sight draws large crowds, that's definitely cause for alarm. Even if Aceh's the only province in Indonesia doing this, it's still very dangerous it's occurring at all. Also note how they cite the province as "conservative"? When you consider how many on the left who accept this seem to have no issue with conservatism as practiced by Muslims, you know it's not "conservatism" per se that's their problem. It's only the western world's idea of conservatism that is.
The men and women were publicly flogged in the ultra-conservative Aceh province governed by Sharia law on Monday.
Crowds gathered to watch the brutal punishment being handed out despite the coronavirus pandemic, with many taking pictures and videos on their phones.
The couples, wearing face masks, were checked by medical officers before the caning and escorted in handcuffs to the rug where they knelt to receive the lashings.
A hooded cane-wielding enforcer, whose face could not be seen, delivered the punishment to the offenders.
Aceh is the only province in the world’s most populous Muslim-majority country that imposes Islamic law. About 98 per cent of Aceh’s five million residents are Muslims.
The public canings usually attract large crowds of eager spectators but today’s punishments were handed out indoors with only a small circle of observers.
