Although, I suspect the girls you talk about could end up in the same situation with no one to protect them.

What's more weird is that their parents fled from those religious extremists to get a better life elsewhere.
The parents are mostly ashamed for what the Girls did.
And it's VERY difficult to bring them home...

If you'd spend any time around teenagers, you wouldn't think it was weird at all. Sad: but not weird.

I forgot. I was once a teenager.

Make babies faster than the enemy. Obviously they are in a war for the long term. Isn't religion grand?

Or perhaps babies are the natural result of repeatedly raping a women over the course of several months. I very much doubt those Boko Haram fighters have access to condoms, nor do I think that they gave a damn about the consequences for the women.

What I doubt even more is that this is some long term strategy to produce more fighters for their cause. I honestly don't think a group like Boko Haram has the intellectual capacity to think that far ahead.

Intelligence has nothing to do with Rape, Mass Murder, Crucifixion, Beheading, etc.

So it was stupidity that wrote the hadiths, the Koran and the Bible. Now we better understand you.

Perhaps stop dragging religion into everything.

I agree with not dragging religion into everything. However, in the case of Boko Harem, defined as an islamic jihadist group, i think it likely religion (or the willful distortion of such) may play quite a significant role.

And Nicola Sturgeon as Miley Cyrus, ‘death-row hair’ and ‘baby hopes’ – a recent study has found media coverage of female politicians is getting worse. In an election that has been riddled with sexism, your vote is more important than ever.

The British tabloid press is getting worse and more worse...

Like a Pringles vendor sounding an alarm about obesity, Pope Francis fashioned himself a feminist last week.

You are not reading The Onion.

But a change of tone in defiance of fact should be flagged (and flogged) as such. And neither Pope Francis nor any other top official in the bastion of male entitlement known as the Vatican can credibly assert concern about parity between the sexes. Their own kitchen is much too messy for them to call out the ketchup smudges in anybody else’s.

I agree. I think in this instance religion is definitely being used as an excuse to justify psychopathic behaviour, as it has been on too many occasions.

Ok, I'll continue the above name calling (psychopathic). Since it must be within The Rules.
..

Are you actually insulted that I called Boko Harem psychopathic? Is there something you are not telling us about where your sympathies lie?

If anyone from Boko Harem wants to red X my post as insulting, they are welcome to do so.

I believe Left Wing Organizations (as Religions), are using their Organizations as an excuse to justify psychopathic behaviour.

Just my opinion. As Es99 Posted her opinion.

Of course I could take offence at your statement, as I do not know any Islamic Jahidists personally from the news their behavior does appear to be psychopathic. However I have known and do know people who belong to Left Wing Organisations and you accusing them of being psychopaths I could see as an insult, or is that not what you are saying?

You see just because one person uses a phrase in one way does not always make it "within the rules" but you know that and just do it for effect.

I wish you had something meaningful to say but recently I have seen very little.

Antisocial Personality Disorders (ASPD).
These disorders share many common behavioral traits which lead to the confusion between them.
Key traits that sociopaths and psychopaths share include:
•A disregard for laws and social mores
•A disregard for the rights of others
•A failure to feel remorse or guilt
•A tendency to display violent behavior

This is true .....

In The USA also.
Unfortunately, I also see a decline, as an over 5 Decade reader of The New York Times.
What a shame.

Sweden as well:(

I agree. I think in this instance religion is definitely being used as an excuse to justify psychopathic behaviour, as it has been on too many occasions.

I disagree. Atheists argue that 'God' as answer to questions about where we came from is far to simplistic and shuts down the need to find actual answers, the same is true when you say the cause for psychopathic behavior is 'religion'. Its a non answer that forces you to ignore the countless of other variables that play a role in the lives of Boko Haram warriors. Religion as answer to this question does not stand to any kind of academic scrutiny.

Think about it, if religion were the cause, then why does it only affect a very select group of men in a specific region of Nigeria? There are billions of religious people all around the world, yet only a tiny minority of them displays this level of psychopathic behavior. And as I said, it mostly affects men, why would religion affect men so much more than women? All we have is correlation, but correlation is not causation. We should keep that in mind.

If it is not the cause, but as you say, an excuse, then there is even less need to drag religion into this. An excuse is what you tell yourself and others after the facts. But they don't cause the facts, and it is therefor not really relevant or interesting.

I didn't say that religion is the cause of psychopathic behaviour. However as it is by nature delusional, it certainly can be used to help those who are psychopathic justify their behaviour and get others to go along with it.

Again, I never once said it was the cause. I said it was used to justify psychopathic behaviour. Remember, god is created in the image of man.

If it is not the cause, but as you say, an excuse, then there is even less need to drag religion into this. An excuse is what you tell yourself and others after the facts. But they don't cause the facts, and it is therefor not really relevant or interesting.

If less people were able to be sucked in by this delusion, the psychopaths would have a harder time getting people do go along with them.

Religion is a method of mind control. It absolutely has been used to control women for over a thousand years. Whether that is boko haram or Pat Robertson.
