From this article:
Quote
KADUNA, Nigeria (Reuters) - A Nigerian Muslim state said Tuesday it had issued a "fatwa" urging a death sentence for the author of a newspaper story on the Miss World (news - web sites) pageant that sparked deadly riots in northern Nigeria.

More than 200 people died in the violence in the northern city of Kaduna.

Muslims were enraged by the November 16 article which suggested the Prophet Mohammad would probably have married one of the contestants in the pageant, which has been relocated from Nigeria to London because of the bloodshed.

"What we are saying is that the Holy Koran has clearly stated that whoever insults the Prophet of Islam, Mohammad, should be killed," Zamfara State Commissioner for Information Umar Dangaladima Magaji told Reuters.[/i]
My question is this:  is your belief system so bloody weak that you feel the need to KILL anyone that so much as mentions it in a manner that might even SUGGEST irreverence?

This is merely one example, because other religions are just as guilty of it (just not quite as recently... these backwards fucks seem to be the only major religion that is still stuck in the 12th century...

To be fair, there are still places where I can be brutually beaten if I suggest that Jesus was a hermaphrodite bandit cowboy.

A lot of places actually.  I've been to the bible belt of the US and you'd definitely be beaten or even worse taunted until you converted...

If you want to speak to people like those being described, go to http://www.itshappening.com. That is, if the site is still up.

What the heck were they even doing looking at a beauty pagent? I thought they didn't like anything where women showed off their bodies.

They are truly walking contradictions to every word they say/write.
