1. Well, the "mob" is maybe a hundred-- pretty easy to...

find that many assholes to whip up. It's the Sudan, after all, so it's almost a vacation day compared to what else is going on over there.

But, it's still scary that you can find a hundred assholes taking more than an hour or so to scream for blood over this.

(And people think we got it bad here...)

2. this is bullshit, half of muslim men are named Muhammad, that is a physical manifestation..

i lived in north Africa.. seems every man was named in some manner of Muhammad, mohamedu, Mohammad

8. Naming a boy child after the Prophet is an honor.

But equating the Prophet to an animal is an insult - you'll never find anyone naming their pet Mohammed.

Now, we may recognise that to a child a teddy bear is a friend, a person, not a pet or an animal, so no insult was intended. The judges recognised that, as reflected by the relatively light sentence. But fundies are fundies - these are the Islamic equivalent to the Phelps crowd.

11. As I stated before - reminds me of the sick joke about Moses the parrot.

"Jesus is watching you - Jesus is watching you!"

And the burglar said to the parrot "What kind of people name a parrot Moses?"

And the parrot replied, "The same kind of people who name a rotweiller Jesus."

If you want to stand against extremism, this would be a good time to show that the world isn't going to tolerate this kind of crap.
