The Islamic Conference "believes that the attack on sacredly held beliefs and the defamation of religions, religious symbols, personalities and dogmas impinge on the enjoyment of human rights of followers of those religions," the letter said. It was sent last month to members of the Ad Hoc Committee on Complementary Standards, a temporary committee created to consider a previous anti-racism treaty.

Hilary and Obama say it will have bad implications on freedom of speech and I agree. If I want to call the baptists here monsters, I am protected.

...Islamic nations are mounting a campaign for an international treaty to protect religious symbols and beliefs from mockery

If ratified in countries that enshrine freedom of expression as a fundamental right, such a treaty would require them to limit free speech if it risks seriously offending religious believers.

Who would agree to this bullshit? How insecure are you about you're beliefs that you need an international law passed that stops people from making fun of it? I can't wait for the bible-whackers who can't forget about some douche putting a crucifix in a jar of piss to sign on for this.

Do those people have fun blasphemes like we do? How do you say 'goddammit' in the middle earth?

Gorram it!

I'm going to start a religion where if you don't mock religion, it is considered mockery of my religion. That'll fix 'em.

I think it is a character flaw to agree with these people. I am apparently flawed as well if they in fact said what they said.:drunk:

This is what you get when you don't separate church and state.

It took the US 40 years or so to recognize genocide as an international crime, so I would not be concerned with any infringement on free speech.

They are a special interest doing what a special interest does to justify its existence.

Rev. Al doesn't get involved in racial issues because of a "higher calling", he does so because it pays his bills. I am sure the same goes for the Islamic Conference.

Are you an apologist for everything that's come from white mainstream America?

Exactly what am I apologizing for?

Your posts seem to have this underpinning of guilt for all things mainstream.

What mainstream things are you referring to?

[JohnGacysCrawlSpace]

Funny how the people who want to ban any mockery of religion are the same who want to wipe Israel off the map because of their respective religion...hmm

The only time I would burn a city because of a cartoon would be if I was forced to read Family Circus.

everything you bitch and moan about

Introducing Burka Barbie, They didnt go into detail if she would be Sunni or Shi'ite. Accessories like suicide vest, mini Koran should be included. Fuck, they should come out with the talking Muslim Barbie who states "Death to Israel"
