I recommend your researcher to reveal his semantics too and tell us the difference between "basic rule" and "law" and besides to reveal to us what he knows about deductive logic and why despite his revelations all imams, mullahs and ulemas don't share his views?

I'd also recommand to him to look at the past 1000 years of your country and 1400 years of Islam to see the amazing consistency between what "the basic rule" of your researcher and "laws" that ruled the whole Islamic society displayed .

It is rather you that mix up things and notions to disculpate Islam, this totalitarian evil death cult.

Unluckily or luckily , Turkey is no Western society. It's 99,8% Islamic - with more imams than doctors and teachers and more mosques than hospitals.
