The Qur’an clearly states that the hands of thieves should be cut off (Q 5:38), and that fornicators are to be publically flogged with one-hundred lashes (Q 24:2). It demands that polytheists be fought and punished for being non-Muslim polytheists (Q 9:5). It demands that Christians and Jews be fought and brought under submission for their beliefs (Q 9:29). It states that the punishment for “those who sow corruption on the Earth”, which can include large swathes of people, is to be executed, crucified, or mutilated (Q 5:33). The Qur’an commands that Muslims be harsh against unbelievers, and merciful amongst themselves (Q 48:29).

Why must I be tolerant of such an intolerant religion? Why wouldn't I want those who are religiously committed to my death to be banned from the US? 

According to Q 4:34, husbands are allowed to beat their wives if they “fear disobedience”.  

These beliefs are counter to our laws and sense of morality. I will not support them or apologize for opposing it.
