100% guarantee you that you don't know shit about what really goes on in Sharia nations if you think they have no moral decay. What is worse is they have orgnanised, stratified immorality. They have top-down rot to the core of their societies and child marriage is just one of many examples.
I don't disagree. It's just that whatever order that does stem from Islam is still objectively superior to any order you can define from Atheism. What Iβm saying is simply that Islam at least encompasses a shared, orderly moral structure. Atheism, by definition, produces none.
I agree, abuses exist in Islamic societies, absolutely. But a society with no shared moral structure is wide open to far worse outcomes, because thereβs nothing binding anyone to anything when the state decides to redefine morality based on social fads. Child marriages are bad, true, but state-sanctioned grooming in an atheistic society is actually far worse!!! At least there is a red-line under Islam, even if it's not where many think it should be. But under a postmodern atheistic society, lines are not allowed. One year, a person can defend himself from violence, the next year, he is put in jail for "overdefending" himself. No clear lines.
