So some unknown blogger in Singapore decides to post cartoons mocking Christ and what happens?
The moronic twits in government there arrest him under the Sedition Act.
Ultimately, he got off with a “stern warning.”
Somebody ought to teach the dictators there what “Freedom of Speech” is. Not to mention this little fact: Christ doesn’t need your “help.” Oh, and note that there have been no crowds of enraged Christians screaming “Death to those who insult Christianity”, nor have there been any reports of embassies burned down.
Finally, in case anybody’s itching to call the arrest “Islamophobia” or “Christofascism” (you know who you are. You tend to have “Dean 2004″ bumper stickers on your cars), you should read the rest of the story as well. Two other bloggers in Singapore mocking Islam didn’t get off with a “stern warning”, they got jail time.
At least the censoring shitheads in Singapore are equal opportunity morons.

Right with ya on this one, Misha.
Jesus doesn’t need Singapore’s help. Singapore needs Jesus’ help.
I have no problem with someone mocking Jesus or YHWH. Really, I don’t. If you do it to my face, I’ll try to take the time to explain how you’re wrong.
If you expect me to pay for it with my tax-dollars, you’ve got a fight on your hands.
Besides, *I* don’t need to punish anyone for mocking Jesus. Jesus Himself is the wronged party, and, trust me, Jesus Himself promises He’ll get his retribution for it. Don’t believe me? Read it for yourself.
July 20th, 2006 at 3:39 pmI think it’s stupid to mock a religion. If you don’t believe in it then leave those who do alone. the state should stay the hell out of it though!
July 20th, 2006 at 4:00 pmIslam on the other hand, being a deathcult, is fair game in my book.
Let’s see, where do I start? Murder, pedophilia, mysogeny, extortion, or just blind stupidity. Behold the choices of Islam!
maxx,
Just using the Koran and the Haddith, I can prove that it isn’t even possible for Islam to be correct.
So, mock away. Falsehood deserves to be mocked.
Actually…now that I think about it…since all other religions other than Judeo-Christianity can be proven to be false…you should mock Islam just because they deserve it.
Besides, it’s so much fun to watch the dueling emotions of righteous indignation and helpless rage (when they realize they can’t really do anything about it) flit across their faces.
Some people just deserve to be offended.
