The Threats Against the creatures of South Park
All I know about South Park is that it's a comedy cartoon show from Comedy Central.
And lately their creatures was threatened to be killed because they portrayed Prophet Muhammad in one of their latest episodes wearing a bear custom .
A group called itself "revolution Muslim" said "We have to warn Matt and Trey that what they are doing is stupid and they will probably wind up like Theo Van Gogh for airing this show".
Muslims in general are against portraying God or Prophets . So you will never see a picture for Allah or any of the prophets specially not prophet Muhammad.
While other religions are OK with that and we can see millions of pictures of Jesus. And movies are filled with actors playing the roles of God.
And while we still -in the Islamic and Arabic worlds- have problems discussing religious issues or even question them, the west are way ahead in their freedom of discussion and they can criticize whomever they want, any way they wanted.
This so-called Islamic group are based in America-New York exactly- and they are well aware of their right to protest, to complain, to discuss , to explain. But they have decided to go with their not right to threat with death.
Why is death the answer ?
Is it going to end the problem you are facing ? .
Is this all the problems the Muslims are facing today - the portraying of the prophet- ?
What would prophet Muhammad would say about the killing permits they issue day and night if he was here today ?
why do you force people to see things you believe in the way you see it ?
how do you want them to respect your religion and your believes if you have no respect for their lives ?
Is our religion this weak to be threatened by a cartoon?
Is this the way to show our respect and love for our prophet ?
Remember that when a poet said an all hate poem against the prophet at his time, the prophet didn't issue a fatwa to kill him.
I am against killing and threats of killing whatsoever. There are MILLIONS of ways to show our protest and killing ain't one of them.

Naked Women Against Iranian Muslim Scholars
A group of women in America decided to strip naked against the belief that women nudeness and clothes are the reason for earthquakes in the world.
An Iranian scholar said that the clothes women wearing in Iran are the reason for any possible earth quakes. That came after news that the capital of Iran, Tehran might be hit with an earth quake.
The leader of the group asked women to wear nothing or less clothes to prove that women's clothes got nothing to do with natural disasters.
Well, it's common believe amongst Muslims that there are no such things as natural disasters and that all that happens are the results of God's anger. And I have seen and heard of so many Christians priests who claimed the same thing. I don't know if this is common with all religions.
While I think that they are natural disasters, I don't think nudeness is going to show anything , but at least it's their way of protesting peacefully and not protesting by killings.

Protest and use your head to come up with genuine ideas to stand up for your own religion but killing is not a way to protest.
Good post! Yes, protesting by nudity is much better than protesting by murder. :)
BalasHapusY the murder thingy indeed! dies it have to be the 1st and last solution :), it IS off.
BalasHapusRegarding protesting, I stand undecided on that one, :D.
H.
Susanne,
BalasHapusi agree, too. It's time to end the nonsense of killing and threats and death.
Haitham,
the problem is that they are doing it in the name of Islam. Islam order us to do this and that and then we wonder why it's labled as an evil religion !!! . WE need to stand to this stupidity.
