Why is it so sensitive to speak about prophet Mohammad? This person will die because maybe he said some negative things? Why is the Muslim Religion so Delicate as to kill a person for speaking badly?

will the killing of this person Avenge the good name of Mohammad? What is so bad about speaking your mind? THE God gave you free will and so why do you kill a person for speaking out of a free will mindset?

I have still yet to find a rationally thinking Muslim to answer my Questions.

Probably the sensitivity is necessary because of the many flaws Mohammad obviously had.  But "rational" and "religion" go together only from a study of power, gaining it and keeping it.  The old saw about religion is that it forces you to "believe ten impossible things before breakfast every day". 

There are intrinsic reasons for that.  But I'd still like to hear someone that knows the Muslim culture intimately try to answer your questions.

I don't hate them.  I just wouldn't say anything to the police or otherwise if I woke up and they had "mysteriously disappeared" one day, at least not until the next day when I was done doing nothing the previous day; there's a lot of work involved in napping and proselytizing liberty, and finding time in my busy schedule for the feminists and environmentalists has always been both a challenge and a chore.  Upon being asked "Where have all the feminists and environmentalists gone?", I would probably say, "Sorry, what's that?  I can't hear you over my making toast, but if you come back in fifteen minutes I think I will have some free time and a clearer head," but of course by the time fifteen minutes had passed I'd have escaped the house through a back window to hide in my end-of-the-world happy room several feet beneath the Earth, in the hopes the officials would inevitably get bored and give up on trying to ask; I have enough provisions down there to last me up to a month so I think I can outlast them.

But that's not to say I hate the people.
I think you can count on them giving up.  The list of suspects is up in the billions.

A blogger in ‘poor psychological condition’ has been sentenced to death after being found guilty of insulting the Prophet Mohammad on Facebook.

According to an ‘informed source’, speaking to the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran, Soheil Arabi, 30, had kept eight Facebook pages under different names and admitted to posting material insulting to the Prophet on these pages.

Mr Arabi, who was arrested along with his wife in November last year by agents from the Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), is said to have written the “material without thinking and in poor psychological condition”.

Branch 75 of Tehran’s Criminal Court, under Judge Khorasani, found Mr Arabi guilty of insulting the Prophet, or “sabb al-nabi”, on 30 August.

Article 262 of the Islamic Penal Code states insulting the Prophet carries a punishment of death, however, article 264 of the Penal Code says if a suspect claims to have said the insulting words in anger, in quoting someone, or by mistake, his death sentence will be converted to 74 lashes.

The anonymous source claims: “Unfortunately, despite this Article and the explanations provided, the judges issued the death sentence.

Four Terrorists Captured on US Border on September 10 – Day Before 9-11 (Video)


Congressman Jason Chaffetz broke this shocking news Wednesday that four known terrorists were apprehended at the US border in Texas on September 10 – the day before the 13th anniversary of the 9-11 attacks.

Chaffetz questioned Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson on whether he is “aware of any apprehensions of suspected or known terrorists.”
Johnson dodged the question.

Tonight, Rep. Chaffetz told Megyn Kelly there were four terrorists arrested crossing the US border in Texas on September 10.

“There were actually four individuals trying to cross through the Texas border, who were apprehended at two different stations, that do have ties to known terrorist organizations in the Middle East.”

Just my opinion, but I don't think there are any people down here who would be sympathetic to Islamic / Muslim looking dudes trying to cross the border.  And that includes Mexicans, US hispanics, cartels and their members, on and on, and that's in a dominantly Democratic area.

You'd have to import a bunch of those fools from the US Northeast or Northwest, or maybe a crop of them from Oakland, before those bad guys would find people looking the other way.

That is logical. The reality is four terrorists were captured on US border on September 10. Now what?



Next the Obamanoids will move a crop of 'nice guys' from somewhere to 'help' who will look the other way.

The Hadeeth are also Islamic books, not only the Quran. They set the example of the prophet. But you can find calls to violence at all of them.
About the Old Testament, no doubt, it's full of violence. But you have the New prevailing over that. And still the OT is common to Islam, Judaism and Christianity. None obviously talks about the Crusades, but Islam already talks about the Mujahedeen. It's the only one of the religions of the God of the desert with a set of holy warrioirs built-in.

Beat me to it.  The New Testament is widely understood by Christians to take precedence over the Old Testament.

As BECemporium notes, Christianity is a renouncing of the methods of violence of the Old Testament, while Islam is an aggrandizement of that violence.

ISLAM:  How much do you know?

I know they need to get their act together and control their own crazies, instead of looking the other way while those crazies kill, torture, behead, bomb, hijack and blow up airplanes, and rant like mad dogs on social media.

That's really all I need to know.
You perfectly described a part of them,but the other part are people like me and you ,who don't want to kill everything it moves or the persons that don't want to convert to our religion.
Yes I understand because i have friends that grew up in the Muslim religion and mind set.  But what I am saying is what I know about Islam is that guys like you - who don't want to kill everything that moves - need to "take care of your own" instead of looking the other way while they go half way across the world and attack the Great Satan, or whatever other imaginary creature they fantasize at the moment. 

You leave your crazies for non Muslims to take care of (and yes we will), expect no more than it to disgrace Islam as a whole.  Which it already has done as most of Islam stays silent about these atrocities.

And yes I know the difference between your news media in English and the same media in the native tongue addressed to Pakistan, Egypt, Saudi, where ever.

He should be sentenced to some community service and home confinement for fair amount of time at most a relatively short stay in jail if you ask me.  This is pretty disturbing to think a judge would even consider allowing such a long jail sentence and that DA should be worried about losing his job for having such horrible judgment on the matter.

I'm ashamed to admit how hard I laughed at the pics because that is a gross act in so many ways.  But there is no way a person should go to jail for that long over something like this, that is the real crime..
I don't understand why you think he should be punished at all for this. It has been reported that he did this in protest against the church as he does not agree with the people of the christian religion.

I'm not saying he should be punished I'm saying he should atleast face a reasonable punishment if any at all.  If that act is considered illegal that is what I'm talking about, regardless of what I feel is fair or right, it doesn't matter in the least.  I'm not the DA I'm just stating what I think is plausible for someone to do in that position.  If people are angry about this including then it's likely some kind of punishment is to come.  My point is that the punishment if any at all should fit the crime simple as that.
I would argue that no crime has been committed. I would not be surprised if this case made it to the supreme court. It is clear that the DA is going to move forward with this case, and who knows how the courts will rule, but IMO his actions were clearly protected by the constitution.

Though I don't like what he did I don't think he should have any significant punishment.  It's disrespectful and in bad taste to be done in broad daylight in public but the is the long and short of it IMO.  I'd be interested to see how the supreme court would rule and I'd be surprised it the case made it that far honestly.
Why would it not make it to the supreme court? To my knowledge there has not been a supreme court case that involves the defacing of a religious statue in the way that it was "defaced" therefore there is not precedent for the lower courts to find him not guilty because of constitutional protections (especially the trial court). If the boy wants to stick up for his rights then he should escalate the case this high if he is tried for this crime, even if found guilty  

Because the statute was not in any way damaged.    

Consider as an alternative if he'd stood there and put a stream of urine on it.  He could be considered to have damaged it.  But he didn't.

So the "Defacing" is completely in the mind and not in the physical world.  

There is no reason for this to go to the Supreme Court.  There is simply no legal argument against the kid except the ability and desire of the DA and/or the property owners to harass him.

Side note:  Of the people I know who consider themselves religious/deeply religious/fundamentalist I can't think of ANY who would condone prosecuting this kid.  Zero.
This is exactly why this case would be accepted by the supreme court. I think this kid did actually break the law and should be found guilty for doing so. However I also think the application of the law is unconstitutional. It is very rare for a trial court to not enforce a law on constitutional grounds unless there is president from a higher court (either an appellate court or the supreme court), therefore the trial court would find him guilty but a higher court should reverse the decision.

http://law.onecle.com/pennsylvania/crimes-and-offenses/00.055.009.000.html

It's a real stretch, but I can see that charges could be brought under this statute.  It seems though that the issue is more the flagrant promoting of the activity on facebook than the activity itself.

What is bothersome about this event is that Yahoo maintained the secrecy and thus became culpable in the deceit of their user base.

Any number of times, information has somehow managed to "get leaked."

They didn't do that, therefore they stand with the bad guys.

REVISION:  Maybe not, because at that time, NSA was compartmentalizing it's attacks.  Yahoo may not have known of the other, simultaneous attacks against other companies.

Can you really be much more of a bigot?

2 billion Muslims on Earth and you define them by a select minority.

No I don't think I did.  I just said they need to control their own crazies.  That's all I need to know because every time I pick up some news paper, magazine or read a current events blog its about some Muslim crazies killing people that are totally somewhere else who don't care about Muslim issues one bit as likely as not.

Just like I don't care  about Sunni and Shiite and Sushi.  Couldn't care less.  That doesn't make me a bigot at all, it just means I have things I do care about and those I really don't.

Look, other people think I'm bad because I don't care about abortion.  (for an example).  Sorry, I'm just being honest.  I just don't care about it one way or the other.  And I really don't care about Sunni or Shiite or Sushi, again, just being honest.

DON'T CARE ONE BIT is way, way different than DISLIKE or HATE or BIGOT, dude.

Spendulus correctly pointed out the minority, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen and should be ignored. It shouldn't be happening at all!
What I'm trying to explain (perhaps poorly) is that it seems to me that there is one rule for the church (as in every church/religion) and one rule for everyone else that isn't in the system.

What about the annoying churchgoer that, uninvited, knocks on your front door and spews out a flood of religious bile in your face. "You should be doing this" and "You should believe in that" and then threaten you with fear "You need to embrace god or you won't go to heaven. You'll burn in the eternal fire." Funny how society accept this, yet if a door salesman did the same thing, told you to buy a product and threaten you with fear if you didn't, he would be in big trouble.
One rule for church, another rule for everyone else.

Funny how when this guy sticks his cock in church property they are all up in arms, "SEND HIM TO PRISION".
Yet the church has been sticking it's cock in society for years and years, and everyone just turns a blind eye.

So lets all just ignore the big elephant in the room (the church) and focus on the tiny fly (the guy in the photo).
No, I just think you are not seeing this matter clearly. 

A.  Bolded above.  He didn't stick his cock in church property.  That's the very point why this is unfair.
B.  It's not the question of "a small minority", but simply that a certain fraction of people in any group...a church group... an anti-church group...whatever....ARE COMPLETE ASSHOLES AND JERKS.  So to assign this behavior to "a group" is just wrong if it is just a fundamental part of a small minority of human behavior.

So if you want to slam on "religion" be my guest, there are many accurate things to say in the negative.  I see it in a different way, like most people in "a religion" are just in it for the daycare facility, maybe elementary school, maybe the marriage/birth/death ceremonies, and they shrug off the crazy belief systems.  But yes some fair fraction believe them.  Just remember that religions have survived for thousands of years, it's not because they were irrelevant quite the reverse.

Isn't that interesting. Cheesy
