British Muslims Encouraged To Attack Democracy

British Islamist Abu Mounis at the December 2010 “Islamic Awakening Conference” calling for Muslims to attack democracy and replace it with Islam.  It’s not enough, he says, to preach to the few and convert a few.  He says they must make all of society bow down and submit to Allah.

Hey, I got something to tell ya: Fuck your imaginary ‘allah’.  The Qu’ran is the incredibly poor writings of a paranoid schizophrenic sex abuser.  Judaism, Christianity — all made up, all proven false by science and archaeology; Jesus and most of those characters never existed.  Kinda fucks up any credibility for Islam, let alone it’s own failings.

Moderate Muslim Scholars Praise Murderer Of Pakistani Governor

Over 500, that’s five hundred, Muslim scholars, who are considered moderates, are praising the body guard who murdered Pakistan’s Punjab governor, Salman Taseer, over his opposition to the country’s severe blasphemy laws.  Cheering lawyers showered flowers on the killer, Mumtaz Qadri,as he was fescorted into court.

Taseer has been criticized, by moderate Muslims, for his support of Asia Bibi, the mother of small children who has been imprisoned for a year for allegedly blaspheming the “prophet” Muhammad, and a majority of Pakistanis want her executed.

This is moderate Islam.  From MSNBC:

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Lawyers showered the suspected assassin of a liberal Pakistani governor with rose petals as he entered court. Some 170 miles away, the prime minister joined thousands to mourn the loss of the politician, who dared to challenge the demands of Islamic extremists.

The cheers and tears across the country Wednesday underscored Pakistan’s journey over the past several decades from a nation defined by moderate Islam to one increasingly influenced by fundamentalists willing to use violence to impose their views.

Even so-called moderate Muslim scholars praised 26-year-old Mumtaz Qadri for allegedly killing Punjab province Gov. Salman Taseer on Tuesday in a hail of gunfire while he was supposed to be protecting him as a bodyguard. Qadri later told authorities he acted because of Taseer’s vocal opposition to blasphemy laws that order death for those who insult Islam.

As Qadri was escorted into court in Islamabad, a rowdy crowd patted his back and kissed his cheek as lawyers at the scene threw flowers. On the way out, some 200 sympathizers chanted slogans in his favor, and the suspect stood at the back door of an armored police van and repeatedly yelled “God is great.”

Many other Pakistanis were appalled.

The response from the United States Secretary of State Clinton has been very weak, no mention of the horrific acts being committed in the name of religion, no mention of blasphemy laws, only a generic ‘we-will-help-them-in-their-time-of-turmoil’ bullshit.  Here is a good WashTimes editorial on it.

Ex-Muslim Could Face Life Sentence For Blasphemy

Twenty-six year old Walid, or Waleed, Husayin (pseudonym), a barber in the West Bank of Palestine, was trucked down and arrested because of his satirical Facebook claims to be Allah.

From JihadWatch.org:

[…]

Their faith is under attack from the West because a Palestinian barber questions Islam? Lunacy.

He could face a life sentence if he’s found guilty, depending on how harshly the judge thinks he attacked Islam and how widely his views were broadcast, said Islamic scholar Tamimi.Even so, a small minority has questioned whether the government went too far.

Zainab Rashid, a liberal Palestinian commentator, wrote in an online opinion piece that Husayin has made an important point: “that criticizing religious texts for their (intellectual) weakness can only be combatted by … oppression, prison and execution.”

Good point, no? Lock her up too!

This man’s own family and townspeople want him imprisoned for life and/or dead.  But, why would they dare say anything different, lest they be locked up, too?

Meanwhile, a Pakistani doctor has been arrested and charged with “blasphemy” because he threw away a business card of a pharmaceutical rep whose name is Muhammad.  The rep turned him.  Why isn’t the rep guilty of blasphemy for comparing himself to Muhammad, as though tossing his business card equaled tossing the “prophet”?  And, why isn’t naming your kid after the “holy” “prophet” a form of blasphemy itself?  Using the fucked-up logic of religion, a living person named Muhammad seems to be more of a likeness than drawing a picture of someone who nobody knows what he actually looked like.

Nothing in religion makes sense.

“Peace-Loving” Pakistani Muslims Demand Christian Woman’s Death

Pakistanis want international blasphemy law

It makes my stomach turn when I hear apologists’ claims that Islam is a Religion of Peace™ and that, meh, it’s just a few extremists giving it a bad name.  Bullshit.

The few extremists in Pakistan, comprising most of the population of Pakistan, are threatening to explode the country into violence if the government pardons Asia Bibi, a Christian woman, accused of “blasphemy” by her peaceful, loving Muslim co-workers.

A CNN report the other day showed Asia Bibi’s children wondering if their mother would be executed; then reports came that the government was considering dropping the charges and setting her free (to be mobbed and killed by angry, peaceful muslims).  Her husband and children, one of whom is disabled, had to flee their village because of death threats from their neighbors, who are filled with Allah’s love and peace, of course.

The Pakistani government fears it’s own fucking people if they remove the controversial blasphemy law, as some are calling for; the fucking Quran (unlike the fucking Bible) doesn’t even call for death in the case of blasphemy — that was later added by “scholars”.

The town cleric stated (in the CNN video) that he had “tears of joy pouring from his eyes” — not for the possible release of this poor innocent woman, but for his beloved “prophet”; he said that Bibi’s death sentence was one of the “happiest moments of his life”.  That is just fucking sick.  And the sheep go with it, unanimously agreeing (or else) that she should be hanged.

Religions are cancers in this world.

Westboro Baptist Will Not Be Outdone

click to HEAR Megan Phelps

Westboro Baptist Church has tweeted that they are gonna burn Korans and American flags, motherfuckers, and teach those candy-ass christians at Dove World a thing or two about crazy.  Megan Phelps said she knew that pussy-Pastors Jones and Wayne Sapp would cave to the pressure.  The Lord told her that, I guess — it’s really cruel of (G)od to fuck with the mentally ill this way, pitting them against each other and endangering the rest of the world.  What an asshole.

Read the story and updates over at JMG: “BREAKING: Pastor Terry Jones Agrees To Cancel Burning Of Korans” and “Westboro: We’ll Burn Korans Anyway“.

Despite Urgings, Pastor Jones Will Still Burn Books

[this story has updated since this post — Jones has agreed to cancel the book burning]

Religion really fucks up this world.  Whack-job Pastor Jones ain’t “backing down” and whack-job Islamists promise that Americans will be killed.  From a Comcast news story today:

[…]

Petraeus spoke Wednesday with Afghan President Karzai about the matter, according to a military spokesman Col. Erik Gunhus. “They both agreed that burning of a Quran would undermine our effort in Afghanistan, jeopardize the safety of coalition troopers and civilians,” Gunhus said, and would “create problems for our Afghan partners … as it likely would be Afghan police and soldiers who would have to deal with any large demonstrations.”

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said that the pastor’s plans were outrageous, and along with Defense Secretary Robert Gates, urged Jones to cancel the event.

“It is regrettable that a pastor in Gainesville, Florida, with a church of no more than 50 people can make this outrageous and distrustful, disgraceful plan and get the world’s attention, but that’s the world we live in right now,” Clinton said in remarks to the Council on Foreign Relations.

U.S. Muslim Extremists Threaten ‘South Park’ Creators

“It’s wrong! It’s wrooooong!” … and it is absurd … and sickening.  This is why free people must never back down from criticizing, questioning, challenging and, yes, ridiculing religious dogma.  (Christians, too, are guilty of demanding their religion be bowed to by non-believers and non-christians.)

Revolution Muslim (dot-com) posted a threat warning on their website next to a picture of the body of the slain Dutch cartoonist who drew a cartoon of the prophet Mohammed (PBUH) (Peanut Butter Upon Him).

But that’s not a threat!  Just because they lay out exactly what could, maybe, possibly, might happen in a sorta real kinda way but not, is no reason to think they are making a threat!  How dare anyone misconstrue “this might happen to you” coupled with “photo of murdered man who did what you did” and make it out to be a threat!  “We will Someone might kill you!  It’s just a word of caution, that’s all!”

WTF?  Muslims expect to garner respect for their beliefs and their actions and their threats?  And how the fuck does someone expect people to follow in-house religious rules when they are not part of that religion?  How does believing in all of the fabricated myths that Muslims, Christians, Jews, etc. believe in, give them the idea that non-religious (or other-religous) people are obligated to follow their religious, superstitious bullshit?

Blasphemy.  Aren’t all religions blasphemous to all other religions?  Aren’t the Sunnis blasphemous in the eyes of the Shia and vice versa?  The Catholics, blasphemous in the eyes of the Baptists et v. v.?

Since when do the religious command non-believers to obey something that is imaginary?  (well, all the damn time, really)

Should Religious People Be Treated For Mental Illness And Cured?

“Should Christians (and all religious people) be treated for and cured of their mental illness? That is a much better question than the one Kyra Phillips of CNN posed on a segment “Homosexuality —is it a problem in need of a cure?” The segment came about from Bonnie Lowenthal (D) Long Beach, CA who authored AB2199 to repeal an archaic law from the 1950’s that is still on the books.  The law mandates state research into the “causes and cures of homosexuality” which is no longer an issue today (with intelligent people, that is).

MRI of religious brain

Back in the day, when persons were outed, they were ostracized from family and society and even put away in institutions to be experimented on with shock therapy, physical mutilation, chemical castration and other heinous abrogations of human rights.  But science, and the ability for gay people to live openly have put those days in the past and we now know that sexual orientation is a natural part of the human mind.  The American Psychiatric Association released a study (August 2009) concluding that attempts at “curing the gay” are unsuccessful and psychologically damaging.

Message to Kyra Phillips and CNN: “Go fuck yourselves!” Sorry if that offends her (she responded to the “vicious” emails she received) but why the fuck is this even up for a debate in 2010?  Why does it surprise her or anyone that people would react angrily to bullshit like this?

Again, what if the question had been “Should Christians be treated and cured of their mental illness?” There would be fire, brimstone and death threats raining down from loving Christians everywhere!
