All I can say is...this is despicable.

Return of the Dark and Middle Ages anyone? This guy sounds like another dumbass religious nut out to rouse a population through outright stupidity. If we're lucky, he'll say the wrong thing to the wrong people in the wrong place. But, enough of my personal outrage . . . I may not be a religious individual, but apparently, this guy has no idea when it comes to historical ramifications. It's clear he'd rather go through with a witch hunt than seek the supposed enlightenment of his faith. I just hope the Government is watching him like a hawk . . . too many people have done similar things (with respect to religious communities/academies), and most of them are in jail, or dead due to, "Sex with minors," charges, or both. The whole, "Holier than thou art," tend to get people into trouble, yet still so many succumb to it . . . boggles the mind.

perhaps there is a poison snake handling fundamentalist church this fellow can join with to complete the church of fools roster. yes sir, let's make them hate us more......just one step closer to ww3....... yee haw.

Sick f*cks.

He should read it.

There is no God but God.

All things are the Will of God.

No one can understand the Will of God.

Only through acceptance and submission will you find the Peace of God.

This is the Will of God.

There are only two paths, one leads to paradise, the other to the lake of fire, each will chose their path.

Yeah, it increasingly feels a little Weimar republicish these days. These embedded social tensions are being stoked by the depression, right wing media pundits, and a lackluster democratic administration. It's funny because Arab hospitality is like the southern variety on steroids.

I'd burn the part about Lot, as i am pro gay rights. and it is hard to "interpret" some parts as anything other than offensive. yes i know other religions are also bad, i dislike their parts too.

One of the gifts of autism is the ability to think logically and be detached from emotion. Therefore, in a sense, we are spared the illogical and bigoted paroxysms of hate which would inspire such a grotesque event. Maybe one of the reasons there are autistic people in the world, is so that there are some of us with the logic and detachment to refute these fools.

This news has inspired me to keep up with my project of reading the Qu'rán, I am up to Surih 11.

I would also add that the American Muslim community has responded to this event with admirable decorum and restraint under difficult circumstances. Some are hosting 'Share the Qu'rán' dinners with neighbors in order to faciliate friendship and discussion about one of the greatest spiritual texts of humanity.

or non muslims treated badly by an islamic govt.

Kjartan, Mutate, thanks for the info.

Another event for me, not to take part in. I'll keep note of that.

I am thinking about telling all of them to "stop being Christians"--at gunpoint.
