Sorry Grahamy.My humour is sometimes a little foul.But for those who missed the ending.Ah Soh was overcome with the gravity of his own importance,turned into a black hole and disappeared up his own fundamentals,which will be probably be an appropiate ending for all who pervert the concept of their God to attain personal power.

Some groups need to develop a sense of humour before anyone will take them seriously in this country.We all need to develop the insight and have the courage to laugh at our own foibles.The Irish have been laughing at themselves for decades.When humour dis-arms aggression, then perhaps violence and war will be less likely.

Arjay - I fully appreciate your apologies - which really is to all of us not just Graham.

As for your final explanation of Ah Soh - I think if you'd written that in the first place not only was it a lot funnier than your original, but you wouldn't have been deleted at all.

Now, humour - I agree 100% that there are groups that really need to lighten up. Apart from our earnest and dogmatic fundie christian contingent what IS going on in Denmark?

Religion by its nature is ripe for ribald and a target for satire. And Islam is no exception.

For those who want to know what the fuss is about the link below is to the controversial cartoons. They really are very tame. But be warned Denmark is under sanction by Muslim extremists displaying the same level of humour as our afore mentioned christians.

Personally I found the virgins joke funny, but then I am probably marked for hell anyway - the Nordic Hell I hope.

A Saudi couple, Ahmed and Layla, preparing for their wedding, meet with their Mullah for counselling.
The Mullah asks if they have any last question before they leave.
Ahmed asks, "We realize it's tradition in Islam for men to dance with men, and women to dance with women. But, at our wedding reception, we'd like your permission to dance together."
"Absolutely not," says the Mullah. "It's immoral. Men and women always dance separately."
"So after the ceremony I can't even dance with my own wife?"
"No," answered the Mullah, "It's forbidden in Islam."
"Well, okay," says Ahmed, "What about sex? Can we finally have sex?"
"Of course!" replies the Mullah, "Allah Akbar! Sex is OK within marriage, to have children!"
"What about different positions?" asks the man.
"Allah Akbar! Mafi Mushkila (no problem)," says the Mullah.
"Woman on top?" Ahmed asks.
"Sure," says the Mullah. "Allah Akbar. Go for it!"
"Doggy style?"
"Sure! Allah Akbar!"
"On the kitchen table?"
"Yes, yes! Allah Akbar!"
"Can I do it with all my four wives together on rubber sheets with a bottle of hot oil, a couple of vibrators, leather harnesses, a bucket of honey and a porno video?"
"You may indeed. Allah Akbar!"
"Can we do it standing up?"
"No, absolutely not!" says the Mullah."
"Why not?" asks the man.
"Because that could lead to dancing!"

LittleAgreeableBuddy,

Thanks.

Islam is a wicked vicious faith. It has no place in respectable society. The bulk of it's followers would seem to have iqs of roughly 75. Marrying your first cousin is a recipe for mental retardation. If the practice has been going on for hundreds of years the offspring will be knuckle heads, which they certainly are. Islam is about treating women like they are sub-human, making them wear outrageous dress that must be unbearable on hot days. Islam is about raping women and then hosing them down. Is 55 years enough? Islam is about the importation of heroin to make an evil buck. Islam is about growing poppy. Islam is about being faithful to Islam and sponging off the country you migrate to. Islam is about having babies so that governments give you money so that your lazy husband can stay at home and smoke his water pipe.

There are a growing number of non-muslims who are prepared to stand up tp this evil. They don't need 72 virgins in Heaven to fight the good fight. They won't come out at night like the filthy cowards do.

Islam is a vicious wicked faith.

I was concerned when I made my previous post that I would be encouraging the anti-any-kind-of-muslim-mob. I know from Meredith's consistently vitriolic rant against muslims that she fits that description.

That's not to say I didn't find her joke above funny - I did. What I have problems with is that she always indulges in vitriol against fundie muslims - yet never against fundie christians. This is unequivocally biased.

In a (probably) vain attempt to keep it equal I submit the following website for your entertainment:

To to all with a sense of humour.

Scout,

"What I have problems with is that she always indulges in vitriol against fundie muslims - yet never against fundie christians. This is unequivocally biased."

Exactly!

To extend on this comment: A cousin of mine, who is a very strict Christian, once broke-up with one of the most beautiful girls I'd ever seen simply because she was a ballroom dancer. When I asked him why, he said it was because dancing is evil. When I asked him why dancing was evil, he said it was because it leads to sex.

The neocons, Christian or not, fail to see that Christianity has just as much blood on it's hands as Islam does. Perhaps even more when you look at the last 2 millenniums.

It's this understanding of The Left that has The Right accusing them of somehow being traitors or sympathising with terrorists. Things aren't as black and white as they'd like to think.
