Pakistan's 'blasphemy' disgrace

E-mail Print PDF

It is simply disgraceful that in this day and age barbaric and savage "blasphemy" laws are on the books in any country on this small planet with its umpteen religious faiths, sects and cults, which frequently contradict each other. Technically speaking, it seems that we could "blaspheme" any number of sick man-made cults every time we wake up - or even while we're asleep.

As far as I am concerned, fundamentalist religious tyranny and fanaticism blaspheme MY religion and MY god in a huge way. Therefore, according to this abject barbarism calling for the deaths of blasphemers, many "radically" devout Muslims, Christians and Jews in particular could be deemed blasphemous and sentenced to death.

Pakistan's blasphemy law - which recently caught up a Christian mother who was sentenced to death for alleged remarks about Mohammed - is a disgrace and embarrassment, as well as yet another black stain on Islam.

It is obvious from this wretched law and many other aspects of Islamic/sharia law that Islam is not interested at all in humanity but only in harshness, cruelty and brutality.

Family files appeal against death sentence to Pak woman

The family of a Pakistani Christian woman, who was sentenced to death for blasphemy, has filed an appeal in the Lahore High Court against the judgement.

A lower court in Pakistan on Nov 7 sentenced 45-year-old Asia Bibi to death, accepting the prosecution version that she had passed derogatory remarks about Prophet Mohammed....

B-b-but, according to its supporters, Islam is sooo good for non-Muslims and women! Look, it's for her own good that she's killed, because otherwise she's a filthy, blasphemous infidel whore. Better dead than non-Muslim! Remember, long-dead prophets, inanimate books and intangible ideologies are FAR more important than living, breathing human beings and their children who need their mothers!

    Hmmm. I just farted in the direction of Mecca--have I blasphemed?

    The blasphemy law in Pakaistan is indeed disgraceful, but Pakistan is a sovereign country, and as long as Pakistan does not try to force its rule over other countries, what happens in Pakistan is the Pakistani's business. Of course we should protest the barbaric Pakistani laws, but we should not contemplate the wholesale slaughter of Pakistanis like the USA and its allies have perpetrated in Afghanistan and Iraq.

    In the video, the people holding the signs were all wearing masks. We do not know who those sign-holders are; they could be Jews, or Christians, or Atheists pretending to be Moslems, for all we know.
    We do live in an age of false-flag attacks, such as the Lavon Affair.

    According to Wikipedia:

    "The Lavon Affair refers to a failed Israeli covert operation, code named Operation Susannah, which took place in Egypt in the summer of 1954. During this operation, a group of Egyptian Jews, working for Israeli military intelligence, planted bombs inside Egyptian, American and British-owned targets within Egypt in the hopes that "the Muslim Brotherhood, the Communists, 'unspecified malcontents' or 'local nationalists'" would be blamed."

    Would any of the noble souls adhering to the Religion of Peace care to chime in & defend this sick garbage? The "men" who would have anything to do with this are the scum of the earth & have no place in a civilized, decent world... And my government maintains Pakistan as an ally. I wonder if they'd bother themselves to put pressure on these savages to put a stop to this crap?

    Islam has centuries of exactly this sort of routine savagery behind it, all justified in it's holy scriptures. No false flag necessary. This is what Islam does when it has the power.

    Every Muslim that was there and not wearing a mask saw those signs and continued to be a part of it, they were not told to remove the signs because they said something the people around them were not already saying.

    With regards to The Lavon Affair, you forgot to include that not one single person was killed or even injured. Yes it was very underhanded but why don't you compare any false flag attack to the thousand of genuine attacks by Muslims against Muslims and non Muslims alike.

    Let Pakistan do what they want to people because they are a sovereign nation? Two children are going to loose their mother because of "words", not a crime against humanity, didn't steal anything, didn't rape nor kill anyone, just spoke the truth about a man who may well have had love for Muslims, but treated anyone else like they were animals under his control.

    Bottom line, every person needs liberating from the detrimental mental sickness that is known as Islam. If you are a man then you are ok, if you are a woman then you are oppressed in every single Islamic nation on the planet. Muslims even oppress their own women within western nations and claim its under freedom of religion. Well to hell with any Muslim who's feelings get hurt, if they don't provide human rights for their citizens, then someone else should do it for them.

    these website can giv u much more facts on blasphemy n islam....also if u hav an acces to quran u check the chapter called kafiroon....n islamic outlook towards the matters....also the mere action of some stupid judge will not make quran n its outlook towards women savage n barbaric. if u have time enough to go thru books than the websites as the website credibility is at stake as any1 can make a website in any domain.....if u can get hold of islamic law books from some muslim scholars n compare it n read it with the prophets hadidth u will come to knw tht these accusations are false...moreover these judge n clerics have little knowledge.... n u knw tht little knowledge is a dangerous thing...
  • Jeff Hansen
    I don't need any website or Islamic "scholar" to tell me what the Koran & Hadiths say. They're not that complicated or deep. If you think so you haven't read much.

    It isn't any judge's anything that makes Islam's attitude toward women savage & barbaric.

    It's the savage & barbaric words of the Koran & Hadiths & the savage & barbaric actions of Islam toward women that makes Islam savage & barbaric. Well, there's much more but that'll do to clear up that little misunderstanding of yours.
  • Jeff Hansen
    Woke up today to read that yet another adherent of the Religion of Peace just tried to murder masses of American strangers at a Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Oregon. After immigrating to this country from his majority muslim home. Must be another false flag operation, huh? No connection to his ideology, right?

What people are saying about Acharya S/D.M. Murdock

Feder, Professor of Archaeology, Central Connecticut State University, Frauds, Myths, and Mysteries: Science and Pseudoscience In Archaeology

"I can recommend your work whole-heartedly!" —Dr. Robert Eisenman, James the Brother of Jesus and The New Testament Code, RobertEisenman.com

"Well-referenced, with numerous quotations from renowned Egyptologists and classical scholars, Acharya's penetrating research clearly lays out the very ancient pre-Christian basis of modern Christianity. Those who espouse Christianity beware! After digesting the evidence, you will never again view your religion in the same light." —Dr. Robert M. Schoch, Professor of Natural Science College of General Studies at Boston University; Author, Pyramid Quest, Voyages of the Pyramid Builders and Voices of the Rocks

"Acharya S deserves to be recognized as a leading researcher and an expert in the field of comparative mythology, on a par with James Frazer or Robert Graves—indeed, superior to those forerunners in the frankness of her conclusions and the volume of her evidence." —Barbara Walker, The Women's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets and Man Made God

"I've known people with triple Ph.D's who haven't come close to the scholarship in Who Was Jesus?" —Pastor David Bruce, M.Div, North Park Seminary, Chicago, HollywoodJesus.com

Murdock's Who Was Jesus? had been available to me." —Bob Semes, Retired university professor of History and Religion, Founder and Executive Director of The Jefferson Center

"In addition to presenting in Suns of God the troubling history of religious wars in an easily followed narrative, Acharya goes a step further, explaining as only she can how a once-simplistic idea has been carried into our modern world with terrible and nearly unimaginable results." —Rev. Dr. W. Sumner Davis, Fellow, Royal Astronomical Society; Member, American Geophysical Union; Affiliate, New York Academy of Science

"Ms. Murdock is one of only a tiny number of scholars with the richly diverse academic background (and the necessary courage) to adequately address the question of whether Jesus Christ truly existed as a walking-talking figure in first-century Palestine." —David Mills, Atheist Universe

"Thank you, Acharya, for the important work you are doing. Who Was Jesus? Fingerprints of the Christ just might be the best short introduction to Biblical scholarship yet." —David Bergland, 1984 Libertarian Party Presidential Candidate, Libertarianism In One Lesson
