The UN is just trying to protect him. Speaking against Islam is basically hiring someone to kill you.

Actually, Christianity and Judaism are defended from blasphemy-related crime there as well but the fact that most of the population is Muslim does gather more aggression. Doubt that the UN will bring much relief.

[Mr. MR]

The UN is a big joke

[RockerJ]

In case you all don't know, this guy is trying to get nukes launched at Israel. I see no reason at why we should be mad that he was arrested.

[DBloke]

Well its like I say,.
Religion is just used as an excuse for people to be really crappy to people.
As an none arsehole about it atheist I can say that I am better than these people

[RockerJ]

I follow Christianity because I believe the world was created by a divine being and because there are several accounts of Jesus outside of the Bible.

[DBloke]

^But you are not an arsehole about your beliefs are you? You are not the type to go about preaching about how your god should be followed by all.

[RockerJ]

No, but He should be. I just feel like I would do more harm than good trying to get in internet debates about it.

Correct in many cases but in technical terms everyone is religious. There is no one with a complete lack of beliefs, so to speak.

In case you all don't know, this guy is trying to get nukes launched at Israel. I see no reason at why we should be mad that he was arrested.

I haven't heard of the nuke plot. Link? Never saw you as the spiritual type either.

[RockerJ]

I stand corrected. Apparently the UN has been busy with arresting people. It was a completely different story.

"Religious leaders and conservative Islamist politicians in Egypt have called on the United Nations to find a way to criminalize contempt for religion. But liberal activists here say the blasphemy laws are so vague, and applied almost exclusively when people allegedly defame Islam, that they are nothing more than a political tool."

Apparently Egypt is the cause for all of this.

This is what I read. Some other dude doesn't seem happy with Israel. Time to go shove my foot in my mouth.
