re: #490 Obdicut

I would be very willing to believe that there’s systemic bias against women’s testimony in Sharia courts, definitely, and that’s the sort of thing that should get them shut down. I’d note that that investigation was launched by moderate Muslims, which is very heartening.

I do think that there’s some systemic biases in terms of testimony here in the US, as well, that we could address.

Whatever biases there are here can be litigated and eradicated.

Biases in Sharia courts are not so easily dispensed.
