Of course those fucks reject all three changes, anything else would have been a major surprise.

More than many religions, Islam really has outlived its usefulness or relevance, if it even had much in the first place.

A good pint and a bacon sandwich on their way to Mecca Bingo might help them get a grip.
I recommend HP sauce for the buttie, but for adherents; I respect your choice.

As you might notice, seven out of the ten countries with the most refugees are Muslim majority.

It’s a curious thing about alcohol, and Islamic official hysteria on the subject. And pork.

I’ve been based in 4 different Muslim countries, and in all, the locals drank alcohol, in some cases, often to excess. For some, drinking was almost a status activity. Often though, it was the preserve of middle class and up, due to the cost.
I’ve worked with colleagues from many more predominantly muslim countries.

(Bangladesh quietly, or not so, also has a drug problem, (and with it an inferred HIV issue) Not necessarily to the extent that it is here in Cambodia, but there’s areas of Dhaka where it’s not advised to be after dark, and one regularly cited reason was the smoking problem. That was from a decade or so, ago.
Among the hip crowd, smoking certain recreational pharmaceuticals was the norm.)
But I digress.

In Kazakhstan, I once commented to our operations department manager about his alcohol consumption. He blurringly told me that they had vodka long before they ever had Islam. I’ve not tested his assertions in a library, though. A more reasonable colleague once confirmed a comment that I’ve heard from several other, and very diverse, sources. That the restrictions on alcohol are not absolute. Not haram.
A tiny little chap who was very senior in his country’s civil aviation authority and moderately faithful, told me that most people don’t actually know their Koran very well, and so simply follow the demands of their scholars. He was quite emphatic about the points on behaviour and care around alcohol. Not haram. Just don’t be pissed when you go to the mosque…. We often imbibed a few beers over a good rack of ribs.
His comments on pork also tend to go against the official grain.

I’ve heard these same views expressed by well educated, and very talented professionals from Central Asia, south east Asia, Middle East, northern, western, and Southern Africa.
I watched more than one well placed Saudi topple sideways after too much Scotch. They’re the people who claim mecca. Which is curious, as mecca is for all of Islam, and so I’d have thought it would more logically be a state of its own, rather like the Vatican. That other shining example of human benevolence.

So, I’m not much of a fan of the hypocrisy that surrounds this particular….faith, and which is shovelled like so much fertilizer.
Much in the same way that an intolerable drunk of any denomination in a bar is to be avoided; how I’ll not entertain Jehova’s witnesses being pushy at the door, despite counting one or two as close associates/near friends (because they don’t try to ram it down your throat), and one or two other examples of my own intolerance of the intolerable.
