Road Sassy

A school teacher in the Sudan by the name of Gibbons might have to endure forty lashes for the mere sin of naming a Teddy bear Mohammad. As usual, Muslims claim to be insulted, but, unlike Christians, they demand that a price be paid. This is one headline that you will never read in America.

Rosie O’Donnell… was also charged with inciting hatred and showing contempt for religious beliefs… If convicted, she could face 40 lashes, a fine, or one year in jail.

You could substitute any one of hundreds of names for O’Donnell’s. There are countless "stars" and "artists" who manage to  find reserves of courage when it comes to maligning Christians.  They are all too aware that they will suffer nothing as consequence for their irreverence.

But , Christianity’s critics are contemptuous for all the wrong reasons. If Christians were even  one third as dogmatic as Miss O’Donnell and her peers assert, there might be hope that they’d muster up some type of defense against their enemies. If, indeed, Christians exercised the same religious zeal as do Muslims, Miss O’Donnell would be back in the closet and buried under a burqua somewhere.

Alas, today’s dreaded Christians seem to be unable to even locate an enemy, let alone possess the foresight and strength to engage in battle. The fulminating  fundamentalists  that  Miss O’Donnell imagines to be such malignant threats are far  too busy spreading turning their "other" cheeks to Muslims in their  latest display of dhimmitude dementia; the nauseous letter of apology by abject Christians that rivals even Bush’s Muslim pandering. But I digress. …

It just boggles my mind that the left is so willingly blind to the dangers of Islam when evidence can be found daily in news reports across the globe. This teddy bear brouhaha is just one of thousands of similar incidents that occur anywhere that Muslims are in sufficient number to combine their collective umbrage and wail.

Gibbons was arrested after some parents complained about the bear being named after the Prophet Mohammad.

Shopkeeper Sabir Abdel Karim said that if Gibbons had not intended to insult Islam, an apology to Muslims would be enough to end the problem.

"If the teacher apologised to the Sudanese people and to all Muslims because she insulted the Prophet Mohammad then this is enough to end the matter," he said.

I can’t imagine what would happen if a urine soaked koran were put on display.   But nations  will continue to allow this damn caterwauling from offended Muslims to hold sway over media and governments, and Christians will continue to remain the temperature that qualifies them to be spit out of their Savior’s mouth and the Rosie O’Donnells of the world will keep shadow boxing with imaginary enemies, too lost in denial to see  the descending  whip.
