Dude, we've funny laws and punishments. I'm just trying to find out what tipped over and made the whole crowd dissing BMF.

There are the crawlers and some hidden user and that's it.

All the more reason religion should not rule society. Separation of church and state is the only way to have reasonable well thought out, agreed upon laws.

In fact I'm so pissed off right now I may say something I'll regret. This woman is my age...and they're going to whip her?! Fucking barbarians..I hate Islam...there, I said it. Yet, I'm supposed to feel a twinge of fear when I even whisper it, right? If someone says they hate Christianity, we all just go on with our lives.

To me it's radical Islam, but like I said if it's allowed by the courts, what's the difference?

Student defends teacher:

http://abcnews.go.com/International/...ory?id=3918198
excerpt:KHARTOUM (Reuters) - A 7-year-old Sudanese student on Tuesday defended the British teacher accused of insulting Islam saying he had chosen to call a teddy bear Mohammad because it was his own name.

Gillian Gibbons, a 54-year-old teacher at the Unity High School in Khartoum, was arrested on Sunday after complaints from parents that she had insulted Islam's Prophet by allowing the bear to be named Mohammad. She is facing a third night in jail without being formally charged.

"The teacher asked me what I wanted to call the teddy," the boy said shyly, his voice barely rising above a whisper. "I said Mohammad. I named it after my name," he added.

Sitting in his garden wearing shorts, his family, who did not want their full names used, urged him to describe what had happened.

He said he was not thinking of Islam's Prophet when asked to suggest a name, adding most of the class agreed with his choice.

In a writing exercise students were asked to keep a diary of what they did with the teddy bear. "Some people took the teddy home and took it places with them ... like the swimming pool," the child said.

Mohammad said Gibbons was "very nice" and he would be upset if she never came back to teach. He added Gibbons had not discussed religion nor did she mention the Prophet.

"We studied maths and English and spelling," he said, rubbing his mop of short, curly hair.

Well, Christianity ain't the Republican party, either.

It's what the Republican party did with Christianity that's the difference.

Enter: "The Psalm Sunday Resolution".
