Throwing stones in a glass house

Doing this from my phone so a bit of a struggle to type. Lately there has been some stories on the internet news about the struggles of.Muslim women. Many suffer death because of dishonor to their family or other punishments for some such alleged crimes. Pretty much a serious problem for women of that religion. And in the stories there are people posting comments. Many comments relate to the tragedy of it. The problem is many comments are full of vile and hatred. I am not a fan of the WA the Muslim religion is treating the women in,their lives. But who are we to criticize. Yes killing innocent is horrible and should be stopped. The abuse of these women should be stopped. Just how much better are we in the west though. Pornography runs rampant and we don't do that much about it. Young girls are all tatooed up like branded cattle. Just because we don't use religion as a pretext to enslaving women how much better are we? Again there is no excuse for Muslims to misuse their own religion to mistreat women. And just as much though we cannot criticize or condemn others till we get our act together and put a stop to the abuse of women by pornography and child pornography. Women abused in poverty or in ignorance. We have work to do ourselves before we blindly criticize others,even with merit. I don't like talking about social issues, or about religion much, way too inflaming of atopic. It is there is too much hatred in the news posts without us acknowledging our own lack of respect towards women. So instead of throwing stones maybe we should build ourselves a better house.
