Who is #HarmeetDhillon, aka @pnjaban?

#Sikh #immigrant, #ReligiousRights #lawyer, #antiAbortionist (meaning #proLife), supports upholding #RoeVWade (meaning she supports nothing unless there's money), and insists on equal #taxBenifits for #sameSex couples (She's from #SanFrancisco)

What is she even doing in #Trump's orbit?

NOTHING, besides humiliating herself and her faith for money and political ambitions, just like the rest of the crass crowd at the #RNC

Teenager dies following assault by Iranian ‘Morality Police’ over hijab.

Religious rights includes respect of life: not being abused or killed over a piece of cloth. If you have to resort to violence and fear, is this actually ‘jihad’? (No.) Are the lessons of the Quran so weak than it can’t rely on time, word and reason?

Institutional abuse of religion is the core reason why many people find themselves quietly identifying as atheist, agnostic, deinstitutionalising or coverting faith.
