There are many religions in the world, and some of them are every bit as whacked-out as Christianity. You have Hinduism, with its multitude of weird gods, goddesses, demons, and demi-deities, some with animal heads and/or extra arms. You have Judaism, with its angry, hateful, bad-tempered Yahweh who never seems happy with anything or anyone. (Of course, you can read all about him in the Christian Bible.) You have various nature-oriented religions, such as paganism, Wicca, and witchcraft, heavy on the magic spells, chants, crystals, and beads and as low on actual results as any nun praying to the Virgin Mary. You have Buddhism, which claims not to have any gods, yet certainly looks very religion-like from where I'm standing. Big on meditation and achieving oneness with the universe, it doesn't seem to do much other than make people feel good about themselves, so it's low on the Whack-o-Meter scale. If I had to pick a religion to follow, it would be Buddhism, because you can accomplish nothing by doing nothing and still feel good about life.
But for sheer batshit-craziness, you can't beat Islam. Islam is at the point of its development now that Christianity was a thousand years ago. In other words, they not only think they are number one on God's List of Good Boys and Girls, but they believe that everyone else should be on that list, too--forcibly, if necessary, and if people can't be encouraged, coerced, bullied, threatened, or terrorized into believing in the One, True God and His Only Prophet Muhammad (Penis Be Upon Him), then they must die. It is as simple as that. There is nothing else in life that drives the Muslim, nothing else that they live for, other than worshiping Allah and Muhammad and either scorning or terrorizing those who don't. The nicer Muslims merely scorn; the not-nice ones will gladly bomb your neighborhood if the voice in their heads--a.k.a. Allah--tells them to.
Anyway, the title of this blog comes from this article: Christian hoteliers charged with insulting a Muslim guest. In Great Britain, it is very, very, very, very wrong to make any Muslim feel angry, insulted, or hurt in any way whatsoever, so the Christian hotel owners are now facing a criminal record that will be with them for the rest of their lives, for no other reason than that some random shroud-wearer got her knickers in a twist over the allegation that Muhammad (Pizza Be Upon Him) was a "warlord." You may be wondering why I would support the Christians in this, but when it comes to a choice between Christians or Muslims, the Muslims lose by a mile.
Oh, and she was also offended because one of them said that Muslim dress codes are a form of bondage for female Muslims. Well, when you have to go about looking like one of Death's little helpers in a black sheet, while men are allowed to wear whatever they please, what else are we supposed to believe? You certainly aren't doing it because you're trying to be the next big thing in fashion. In some countries, Muslim women are lucky--they get to wear sheets in different colors, and some are even allowed to--GASP!--show their faces and hands!! Bit daring, isn't it? Next thing you know, the little hussies will be showing off their ankles, and THEN where will we be??
You know, if they must wear all black, maybe they should dress like Darth Vader. At least he got to wear a cool mask. If they all dressed like Darth Vader, that would be pretty awesome. Or ninjas! You would never know which of them is a REAL ninja because they would all look alike! There could be ninjas hiding ANYWHERE, right out in the open, and you would never know it! Of course, they're usually invisible, anyway, but sometimes they might not want to be invisible, you know?
Haha! I kid, I kid! I just can't help it! Islam is, frankly, a stupid religion, based on the teachings of an insane, schizophrenic, epileptic nutcase who today would be locked in a room with rubber wallpaper. Seriously, THAT is the kind of guy these Muslim weirdos adore and worship, and that makes them as crazy as him. Couldn't they have picked someone nicer and without any loose screws? What is it about religious people that makes them attracted to the worst sorts of nutters in history? The nuttier, the better, and the more wild and improbable the claims, the more likely religious-minded people are to believe them. They will literally believe anything, as long as the word "God" is attached to it. And they can be persuaded to do anything, as well, for the same reason. That is what makes them so dangerous.
"But there are decent Muslims, too!" I can hear some of you whining already. What decent person follows a religion whose holy book declares that the infidels must die, that wives should be beaten if they don't obey their husbands, and that women are to be covered head-to-foot in a freaking funeral shroud? So, yeah, kudos to them for not strapping dynamite to their kids and sending them into a church, but I still don't think kindly of their religion. They might be the nicest people ever, but inside I'll be thinking, "What the hell is WRONG with you??"
This Muslim woman who was mortally wounded by someone else's opinion needs to STFU already. The only people who care are her lawyers, who of course will make a killing if they win. And given the way Great Britain is going, they probably will, causing fanatical Muslims--the ones who DO strap dynamite to their kids--to count it as a victory for their idiotic god and his retarded prophet. See, the nice Muslims unwittingly support the fanatics by the simple fact that they are all part of the same religion. The fanatic doesn't care about the nice, decent Muslims who just want to get on with their sheet-wearing lives without killing people; he sees them as being on his side. If he starts thinking that maybe they aren't on his side--well, then, they are added to the ever-growing list of people whom Allalalalalalaalah says must die.
As you can see, I do not care if any Muslims are offended by anything I say about them. I don't care if their feelings are hurt, or they are insulted, or they break down crying like babies so that I have to call the waaaaaaahmbulance to come get them and administer a love enema so they won't be sad anymore. In fact, I am going straight over to the Muhammad Dress-Up Game to have some fun. I dressed him in a pig costume! HA! A pig! Come join me in insulting Islam!
Welcome to my blog! I decided to change the title of this blog from "The Happy-Fun Bible Study Page" to more accurately reflect the wider range of subject material that I will be posting. The more I learn about Christianity, the more it becomes blatantly obvious that, despite what its adherents claim, God simply is not there for them. God is not guiding the churches, God is not answering prayers, God is not protecting little children from harm, and God is not concerning himself with the mundane doings of humanity. If he were doing any of this, the world would not look exactly as if people were making all the decisions and running the show. As far as I am concerned, a god who takes no part in human activities looks the same as a god who does not exist.

I'm really happy you've updated this again! I've been reading your past posts whenever I get the chance and they're great! You're so witty, Lois, that crack about the Darth Vadar costume had me laughing.
ReplyDeleteIt's scary that there are women that are happy to wear those. That they think being smacked to the ground by their husbands is fit punishment for.. I don't know.. breathing too loud under their sheets. What a sad, sad world we live in.
All the best!
I feel sorry for people who are brainwashed into this dangerous and stupid religion--until they come to the United States, Britain, and Canada and complain about how poorly they're being treated and how nobody loves them. If our countries are so horrible, why the hell do they come here?? There must be a reason why they left their native land. They should just go back to whatever toilet of a country they came from and see how much better it is there. I guarantee you that the woman who bitched about being insulted would not have that freedom in Iraq. Her husband would have had her beaten for daring to talk to strangers!
