Have I read it right? He blinded a woman who turned him down, so as his punishment for blinding the innocent victim he will now be blinded himself?
No pun intended but can't see a problem with this. Big believer in letting the punishment fit the crime, and that's nothing to do with religious beliefs, it's just fair IMO.
Although have to say, chopping hands off for stealing seems a little extreme
, but in this particular case making the man live the rest of his life in the same state his victim is doing seems pretty fitting.
Cuts out all petty crime in an instance.
I hate the human rights law when it involves crime, as far as I'm concerned, if you break the law, you revoke your human rights.

Christian doctrine is built on the concept of eternal punishment if you don't believe in the Christian god. Seems disproportionate and very unforgiving - almost 'unchristian'.
Do as I say, don't do as I do.
Its all true though mate, god exists
Which one?
Mine
Vino - the god of good wine?
Not had any booze for nearly 2 weeks
Is that for health reasons? If so good work

So women should be stoned to death for committing adultery when they are raped if they were in the company of a man who wasn't their chaperone?
You happy with that one too, and sod their human rights?

Was meaning in this country, rather than the extreme views of Sharia law, which in itself, in parts is total ridiculous, as being raped isn't commitment adultery to any normal human race.
For example, some-one comes into my house and heads up stairs towards my Wife and Kids with a knife, I stab him - Does he have any rights to sue me? Should I therefore be jailed and sued for damages for that - protecting my family.
No, human rights bsh*t protects him rather than me or my family. Commit a crime (western world) revolke all rights, as you've commited a crime agaisnt another humna being.

If the helicopter flies to the east end of Glasgow, with the spl trophy at 3pm today, then god exists. If it flies to Ayrshire, then he doesn't. Simples.

It's not as cut and dried as all that. What if you steal a potato because your children are starving?

Understand, and a good point, but (without being very ignorant), surely always another way to feed your kids. Assume the person stealing the potato, didn't walk to the shop naked, so has a jumper, tee-shirt or shoes to sell first...always another way than to commit a crime...just some think it is an easier way.
