I have only been to one Muslim country (where I am from) and the state of general public morals is really bad when compared to UK (where I am for work). Given we don't drink and do most of other drugs (cigarette is considered less harmful and not Haram for example) i often wonder why still our values and morals are so crappy in general. My personal conclusion is that forgiveness is the greatest loophole my religion has. People do whatever and believe it will all be forgiven.

There probably should either be no ban on anything for anyone for any age (only your immediate care takers could stop you) or the bans should be public wide. I don't understand how alcohol/drugs above 18 are not harmful or way less harmful.
