Pope orders all mosques destroyed!

Hrm...ok, maybe not...
On March 12, Sheik Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah, the grand mufti of Saudi Arabia, declared that it is “necessary to destroy all the churches of the region.” The ruling came in response to a query from a Kuwaiti delegation over proposed legislation to prevent construction of churches in the emirate. The mufti based his decision on a story that on his deathbed, Muhammad declared, “There are not to be two religions in the [Arabian] Peninsula.” This passage has long been used to justify intolerance in the kingdom. Churches have always been banned in Saudi Arabia, and until recently Jews were not even allowed in the country. Those wishing to worship in the manner of their choosing must do so hidden away in private, and even then the morality police have been known to show up unexpectedly and halt proceedings.
The following is probably all too true...
If the pope called for the destruction of all the mosques in Europe, the uproar would be cataclysmic. Pundits would lambaste the church, the White House would rush out a statement of deep concern, and rioters in the Middle East would kill each other in their grief. But when the most influential leader in the Muslim world issues a fatwa to destroy Christian churches, the silence is deafening.

The difference: Most Christians live in secular countries (although I'm sure some would like to get rid of that inconvenience). The Christians who live in Islamic theocracies should have no illusion that they have any religious rights like we in the West do. Sad, but true. Then again, Christians like to feel persecuted almost as much as the Jews, IMO, so whatever. They win anyway I guess.

Indeed. There are preachers that want to turn every society on earth into a theocracy.
They just happen to be imams.

Umm Ferny, aren't you wasting your time by opening and replying to TB's posts? TB is not forcing you to read them.

Eulogy that posting Catholic puns are worse than TB's posts.
edit: "Eulogy". "You'll agree". Get it? Funny? Yes? Funny? Get it?
