10. This is what happens when people put abstract principles above human life.
Think of not just Muslim "honor killings," but also good (yeah right) American Christians throwing their gay kids out into the street, or forcing them into quack treatments, or Jehovah's Witnesses and Christian Scientists denying their children life-saving medical procedures. Hell, you could even apply it to our military lingering on in Vietnam or Iraq, resulting in thousands more deaths, just because our leaders are so afraid of admitting they lost the war.
