So Katy Perry is being accused of blasphemy and people want her music video taken down because a man is burned who has the word Allah on a necklace he's wearing.

WTF, do people still have to listen to these Religi-knobs? What year is it again?

She seems like an Egyptian person and surely at that time there were jews, muslamists and some other pagan people. They must have had wars with egyptians so could the burning of one of them be historically inaccurate?

Science H Newton give me strength!!

Rolling Eyes Off-topic, sort of, but...
Offence can be taken at all these images of torture that abound. Open displays of a man nailed to two pieces of wood. Outrageous, setting a bad example, should be banned!

For the hard of understanding the above is irony with a hint of sarcasm.

In all seriousness, I reckon given that Islam is about 600 years younger than Christianity, it is at a similar stage of "evolution" as Christianity was around 600 years ago i.e. schisms, fundamentalism and a sort of mass hysteria.

And lets not forget the Spanish Inquisition.

I've got no time for any religioso same as anybody who believes their ideology is unquestionable. That goes for feminists, environmentalists, BNP etc It's just laziness, letting other people do your thinking for you.

Funny really, isn't it.

Blasphemy became, in the 19th and 20th centuries, a word we/our culture associated with outdated tyrannical government and church, and we considered ourselves enlightened when we stopped punishing people for it. Now we openly mock Christianity and consider ourselves progressive, enlightened, free and open minded.

But wait! Here's a religious minority! Since we're so open minded, let's bend over backwards for them! Blasphemy is now a thing again, and we should take it seriously if we're to consider ourselves enlightened and progressive!

Nope, I don't see any hypocrisy here. Please put the detonator away now Ahmed.

I think that's a fallacious comparison. All religions are different ages and all have followed unique paths. The age of a religion has little to do with its nature. Yes, perhaps in time it will change, but it is only one of a number of factors that depends on the other factors that will influence the way in which it changes.

Damn straight. Too many people get their own beliefs tangled up in ideologies and willingly and unwittingly lose their individuality.

If you are offended don't watch it. - Problem solved.

If I trolled the internet looking for things that upset me I'd probably be pretty miserable too.

Some people are fucking idiots.

Ahahahahah what

Crossing the road involves danger. Walking down the stairs puts your life at risk.

Heck, while we're at it, emigrating illegally to Europe is very dangerous. You might drown or be trafficked on the way. Maybe they should issue a fatwa against Muslims coming to Europe...food for thought, muzzies?

Annoyingly they will get what they want, it boils my piss... if they don't they'll hand out the death threats and blow up a school or something. There are millions of Christian Arabs whose main language is Arabic, why do Muslims think Arabic is their language only?

Since its inception in 2008, the GAIAE has released nearly 2 million fatwas. The fatwa on the Mars mission is now among them.

Just wow.

Go for it, and I'll justify it with reasoned argument rather than fucking pointless memorised rhetoric. Laughing

Please don't call my bluff... I couldn't reason my way out of a paper bag.

The reason people bend over backwards for these clowns basically boils down to them not wanting to be blown up or beheaded.

Islam as a religion didn't develop until the 7th century (we could argue it's still stuck there), long after the fall of the Egyptian Pharaohs or even the Ptolemy dynasty is she's supposed to be Cleopatra.
