Thoughts on slavery, Islam and Lincoln - the movie

http://livinginamadhouse.wordpress.com/2013/02/13/politically-incorrect-film-reviews-a-lincoln-convertible/

It struck me that if the Americans were going by the Koran the American Civil War would have been prevented.  

This is because the Koran tolerates slavery though it encourages owners to free slaves and acknowledges that all slaves have the option of manumission.  

That would have been the middle way, I would have thought.  Then the slaves would have been gradually freed.  

It is quite a thought how so many quarrels that resulted in wars would have been peacefully resolved if people had just followed the Koran.

Islamic justice begins in Scotland?

Killers to pay for victims' funerals

That is an excellent idea and, if I may say so, rather Islamic. The idea of restorative justice through "blood money" - of victim compensation by the perpetrator - would be fairer than small awards from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board.

Choosing to pursue someone through the civil courts for compensation - where the burden of proof is lower - has been done before. The O J Simpson case comes to mind.

I do not myself see why other taxpayers should compensate the victim for a crime when they were not at fault.

Can someone explain to me why the current system is supposed to be better than making the wrongdoer himself personally compensate the victim?

If someone cannot adequately compensate a victim, then that might be a good reason for bringing back slavery. This would also solve the problem of obtaining cheap indigenous labour.

As Britain bobs uncertainly in a sea of bankruptcy, there is actually a huge potential of slave labour which could be humanely harnessed - with the possibility of manumission
