The penalty for apostacy is death!
The same orders are given in the Christian Bible. Only we don't live in the 10th century anymore. The world has changed, people have changed and a lot of people are questioning the truth and value of religious teachings. With modern technology young people all over the world are getting access to information that their elders don't want them to know.
If a girl was brought up a strict Catholic, but in her teens decides that the Baptists or JW are more to her liking and understanding, and converts, will the catholic father kill his daughter because she brought shame to the family?
Why are muslims denying women equality? They are afraid that educated women will show them up for what they are. Cowards that are forcefully and brutally trying to retain their feeling of superiority over women and children. Those are not men. They are a miserable lot of insecure hooligans who want to dominate to boost their own ego.
I despise any man who uses force for his own gratifications, and especially who uses religion to do evil things. I can not find an excuse or explanation for such atrocities, no matter what nationality or religion.
