BBC News - South Park creators warned over Muhammad depiction
Can i just categorically state that every single muslim offended by this that lives in a free society (europe and america) should go back to the middle east where 16th century virtues are still in place
pathetic
This is just pathetic man it really is. Its no wonder muslims get such a bad rep when theres nutter like this around:shakehead:
Islam.......the Kanye West of religions :shakehead:
don't get me started.......:rolleyes:

Intelligence levels, this says it all.
What a misleading trouble-making headline.
It quotes a posting on a forum for the source of fury. A fucking post on a fucking forum! No wonder there is so much hate in the world when you have bullshit media creating problems like this. In all religions, you will find nutcases and i'm pretty sure if i wanted to be a tit i could quite easily find something written on a Jewish forum or a Christian forum and make a big deal out of it.
No doubt countless people on here will post something along the lines of 'Fucking Muslims...' without even taking a second to think about it...

ono, it's not our fault that the "fuckin muslims" have such delicate constitutions.....every other group of people on God's green Earth seem to roll with the punches.....well not the Scientologists, they are like Islam's dorky less violent twin.
Seriously is a drawing and fucking DRAWING of their religious prophet covered in a bear suit so offensive that death threats are needed???
PRIORITIES PEOPLE!!!! There's heavier shit going on in the world outside of a South Park episode or a Dutch film or a cartoon of Muhammad with a bomb in his turban......get a fucking life irrational muslims!
Ahahaha , I dare you to get some T shirts printed up....Quote:

I don't think you can comment on a whole group of people who follow the same religion, as everybody is different and everybody follows the religion to a varied extent. Of course some aspects of the religion will be seen as 'dated' but unless people on here have studied Islam i don't see how anybody can comment too much on it given you're likely to be relying on conjectural sources of information, such as articles in tabloids that have been sensationalised and written by people who also haven't studied Islam.Quote:

To be honest, i can't get my head round anybody believing in any form of God or afterlife, given all the evidence we have for evolution, but people obviously do and people give their life to their religion so Matt Stone and Trey Parker should be open to criticism for this episode, just like they should be open for acclaim by anybody who finds it amusing. But we shouldn't judge people if they get offended by it just like we shouldn't judge people who find it funny.
As for the article, it's quoting a posting on a message board. I could link you to several youtube pages where the comment sections are very discriminatory against Muslims. After all it would be just It's just as pathetic as this total non-story. :)
Lyle, i'm sure if i could be arsed looking i could link you to a Christian forum where somebody is upset at a TV joke made about Jesus.Quote:

Good postings Ono.
Exactly mate. Especially the shit-stirring media. Islam is the hot topic and scare-mongering sells papers and attracts hits on websites. Unfortunate.Quote:

I agree whole-heartedly with this post and every subsequent post you have made in this thread. There are lunatics from all walks of life, painting Muslim's with the same brush because of one idiot is ridiculous and any based upon that kind of logic is too stupid to bother hearing, as if the person making the argument.Quote:

You cannot just blame this shit on "Oh their culture is different" because the type of people that do this shit have killed people and will do it again and I for one am fucking tired of it.
South Park showed Jesus crapping on the American flag in the episode they were prevented from showing Muhammad in and guess what.....no death threats from Christians
Muslims need to get a fucking grip on reality
Would it be fair if the BBC painted all of us who use Saddos as homophobic, BNP voting alcoholics on the basis of HTH??
It's actually not HTH's fault because of the way the article is portrayed I can see why he thinks it's ridiculous as do I, but anyone who's now going to rant at all Muslims because of one person's post on a forum really needs to examine their own issues and prejudices.
I agree too.Quote:

I don't really think a cartoon needs to satirise religion in such a way, it's far too low brow a show for them to be able to say they are doing it to explore any serious issues.
And if anything does happen to them it's not like they didn't bring it on themselves.
How do you know? Did you check every Christian Internet forum? I mean this beauty of a quote was found on one.Quote:

It isn't a death threat. It's somebody saying they wouldn't be surprised if something happened to them. The author didn't state his intention to kill the creators of South Park. Even if he did, it's one person and it's no different to an idiot commenting on a Youtube video.
If you don't think you hear of other religions going on 'Jihads or the equivalent' then i suggest you further your learning by looking into the history of religious terrorism. The KKK would be a good start.
This is stupid, and the south park guys are stupid for going there. Obviously muslims are going to get a little bit upset when you portray their prophet who's not supposed to be portrayed as a bear. It's insensitive just like making fun of Sarah Palin's mentally challenged toddler. It's just low. Lyle, you're full of shit btw. My grandpa was a brimstone preaching southern baptist and he was just as crazy as a lot of these radical muslims. You don't know anything about the religion you're better off not commenting.

As Ono said it was just a forum post, which actually has as much chance of being written by a non muslim as a muslim. It's a non story except for the fact that the creator's of South Park are jack asses.
I'm half surprised Lyle hasn't been on with his 'Not all Muslims are terrorists but all terrorists are Muslims' belter...:p
I don't hate all muslims, I know quite a few that are very nice and are rational reasonable people but the people threatening guys like Trey Parker and Matt Stone or anyone else that is doing something frivilous have to be stopped.
No I don't check all the Christian websites but I can tell you I am 100% certain that ANY violence threatened or committed by any rogue Christian group will be denounced by the overwhelming majority of Christians, Churches, and leaders of the Churches. I can't say that I see the same self policing from Islam. The KKK and religion?!?!...WTF that is quite a stretch there.
amat, so it's ok for South Park to show Jesus crapping all over the American flag and Buddah snorting coke just so long as they don't show the Prophet Muhammad? That is fucking idiotic!!!! And notice, those guys can make fun of those religions without the threat of violence....do you not see a double standard here??? It's nothing like targeting Sarah Palin's mentally handicapped daughter, that is totally different and an erroneous comparison.
I have nothing against muslims in general, I just have a slight problem with them wanting to kill people over the littlest insignificant bullcrap....I mean there are 2 wars going on in majority muslim countries and they find the time and a "reason" to send threats to the creators of South Park.....I mean really? Really? Is it THAT important? Is it THAT offensive? NO it's not and they need to get off their high horse and get a fucking sense of humor ASAP and you guys need to stop enabling them and their line of thinking. "Well it is a stupid cartoon and well I guess they should be mad and send death threats to those guys"....I mean where does the maddness stop? Girls get acid sprayed on them for going to school, they get stoned to death for being rape victims, and a teacher got thrown in jail for naming a Teddy bear Muhammad not too long ago.....is that rational to any of you????
I don't care what religion the zealots are spouting off about, it really doesn't matter to me, I'm just tired of the bullshit. I'm tired of people being so fucking outraged over the smallest shit.....people who overreact like that make people want to make more fun of them.
Hmm.. didn't you claim comments on youtube prove Amir Khan's popularity has suffered due to racism?Quote:

I'm opinionated, some people dislike that and I understand. But because of my opinions and politics many people don't simply ask me "Lyle what do you think of Islam in general?" They just assume the worst from me. I'm not accusing anyone specifically of doing that right now, I'm merely commenting that its easier to just assume that rather than get the whole picture.

I thought the episode, and the notion was absolutely hilarious.. It's all tongue in cheek. For someone to threaten peoples lives, and YES, it was a death threat, is ridiculous..
He gave the addresses to their homes to the media, why would he do that if he wasn't hoping some radical would act upon it? He also said that he was proud of what Bin Laden has done for their religion.. Why are Bin Laden supporters, you know, the #1 wanted man on the FBI list, IN NEW YORK?!
Muslim or Islamic people or whatever, that are not fundamentalists/radicals/extremists need to speak up on this.. If we think that these guys are giving the religion a bad rap, then they should do something about it and speak up.. Or are they also afraid that they will be targets of religious war?
What a stupid thing to say. Just because Gary Glitter is paedophile, it doesn't mean every white man needs to speak out against it, just like every Christian doesn't need to speak out about the acts of terrorism that have been carried out by Christians.Quote:

It's not as crystal clear as saying we're the good guys and they're the bad guys unfortunately.
EDIT: Can i just say, that anybody who is proud of what any terrorist did is a fuckwit, just like anybody who is proud of us invading another country where thousands of innocent people have died. I also feel i need to point out to certain adults on here that you shouldn't tar everyone with the same brush. Every religion has it's nutcases so please be aware that since we are in a war with a predominantly Muslim country, we are not going to see positive reports on Islam as a religion.
Well... Oklahoma City government blow up building with Timothy McVeight.... they do stuff like that, they are just less numerous an not as trendy as the evil muslim terrorists but they are as extremist and crazy.Quote:

That's a first thing. The second is that many aspects of Islam got incredibly radicalized in some environment because of the Palestinian-Israelite conflict and because of what's going on in the Middle East. This radicalization comes from poverty and repeated offense against a people. In these circumstances, peoples tend to radicalize and to get angered, using something as a wagon. This time, the religion has been the wagon as it is always perfectly designed for such consequences. It could easily have been something else but the cards were perfectly played. Does it means it represents the real islam? Not at all. There is a lot of problems in every religion, including Islam, however, it is wrong to think they are all mad fanatics, we hear about the crazy dumb heads because they help to sell newspaper and magazines. Peoples aren't making discernment, which school od islam are they from, do they come from poverty, have they been brainwashed and by who, what about the more moderate school of islam? These questions aren't searched a lot and it gives place to the worst understanding of islam possible.

No i may have used it as an example, but it's very different, as Khan's videos seem to attract pages upon pages of racial slurs, posted by supposedly normal people, who supposedly have a passing interest in Boxing. Wheras, the report in the OP's article was referencing a quote made by one member of a very specifc Islamic movement forum in retaliation to a sensitive sketch that was to be aired in a South Park episode.Quote:

IIRC what i said about Khan was that from viewing youtube comment sections, various Boxing and other sporting forums, and my experiences of watching Khan in public venues show me that there is an element of racial dislike. I never at any point implied that everybody who dislikes Khan is a racist.
The point i was trying to make was that not every Muslim will have found it offensive and not every Muslim will want to decapitate the creators of South Park, which by the way is something that shouldn't need saying, but apparently it did. :rolleyes:
Abul Ala Maududi is supposed to be a "radical Muslim", but just how radical is he?
I mean, has anybody seen him on a skateboard?
