Teacher found guilty in Sudan

29 November 2007  

BBC News 24 has just reported that Gillian Gibbons, the teacher at the centre of the Sudanese Mohammed Teddy stupidity, has been found guilty of “insulting religion”, and sentenced to 15 days in prison and is then to be deported, hopefully, for her sake, to a country not run by those who cling to their backwards bronze age mythologies.

The bishop of Liverpool, James Jones, calls it a “deep disappointment”, which sounds like a rather weak sentiment, but one needs to consider that he’s of the same bent, just of a different flavour.

He also calls the crime “a mistake” although, oddly enough, he has exactly the same law on the UK’s statute “protecting” his god-belief.

Fucking morons, the lot of them.

    The whole thing is insane. It is made even more insane by the way UK (for example) Islamic groups pussy-foot around calling the Sudanese cleric madmen.

    Bloody desert religions, eh? Dont you just hate them. Give me proper Nordic gods any day of the week – no need to worry about wimpish things like blasphemy there!

    I think that those that have accused the teacher might have been some extremists. I visited The Emma Academy Project and they will be building a school there in Leer, Sudan.

There's probably no god.  Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.
