That wouldn't bother me much. the problem is that his antics have already caused the death of others. And that despite having been told of the possible consequences of his actions before his first planned attempt.
It's even more disgusting as he's certainly the kind of person to have "support our troops" stickied all over his windshield while deliberately fuelling antagonism. Now I'm all for him doing the same thing, but only if he does it alone in the middle of Kandahar next time. |

Then I might think he was serious about what he believes rather than an attention-monger.

... is pretty much what this amounts to, despite them essentially being the same juvenile, sociopathic, megalomaniacal deity starring in a violent, bloody, disgusting Bronze Age fairy tale. Pot. Kettle. BLACK. I actually sort of approve in a way, even though I highly disagree with his intentions. It really does show the world just how fucked up some crazy zealots can be. Death threats for burning a book? A $2.4 million dollar bounty on his head? Murders? For a burned book? Really? For burning some paper and ink? People get worked up over the stupidest shit. Plus, they appear to be breaking their own dogma. They appear to be revering a book as their deity. Didn't Allah and Yahweh both say something about not worshipping idols? Hypocrisy at its finest! Edit: I'm pretty sick of the Western world jumping at shadows and freaking out every time anyone whines about Islam being persecuted. Those assholes need to grow thicker skin for serious.

With the current flood of hell money every Qingming, I think the currency is hugely deflated like the Zimbabwe's, only much much worse.
Burning them clothes and shoes, and a car, is a much better one. Though I wonder in hell, do they receive it as paper, or do they receive it as real, OR do they have to exchange them with Hades as a coupon?

I wonder if that will ever happen while stories like this are what get people's attention and thus more views and ratings. |
