If you skim through following it will help you to understand what I am ganning aboot.
Salman Rushdie. I have not read anything he has written, and I doubt that many of the upset Islamists have.
But if we assume that the Islamists are right and that Rushdie is blasphemeous it only shows how stupid a religion can be. We have a few questions to ask the people who justifies suicide bombings and murder of people who disagrees with their "right opinion".
The Islam countries who claim that the western world is disrespectul should think about their own legislation concerning religious freedom.
" The Satanic Verses’ treatment of the life of Muhammad was seen as blasphemous by many Muslims. Parts that caused particular offence include a suggestion that Islam was founded by the Prophet after experiencing hallucinations caused by smoking hashish."
In Sweden Jesus' has been pictured AS an homosexual in an exhibition. And that exhibition took place in a church among other places. We also have MP:s who put an equal sign between Christians and neo nazis due to the stance on same-sex marriage.
As a born-again Christian you could probably picture that it makes me sad and upset when people want to do above things to the person I see as my saviour. But that does not want me to kill people.

Just listening to your excellent perfomance at SR. I have to admit I was a bit nervous before I pushed play... Concerning your other thoughts on religious understanding and so forth I can't say nothing but -You go girl!- Sleep tight an I'll see you in the morning.
