You have to question how a group of men can kill a woman for getting
pregnant. Do they castrate the father? Now that would be fair, would
it not?

I don't believe Christians are killing their daughters like that. Give
me some examples where Christians are slitting their daughters' throats
because they became pregnant. Or an example of several family members
holding a girl down and killing her because having sex with a
non-christian.
Now there are examples of daughters in Hindu families being killed
because their dowries were too small. A practice called Bride Burning.
But I can't find an equivelent in modern day Christianity.
