It never occurred to me that islamic dating could be so fraught with indecision…

When the robotic revolution jihad comes, it’s probably going to be islamic, if this video is anything to go by.

Since the news that a muslim that had applied to be interviewed for a job as a hair stylist cum model didn’t get the job (because she was unable to do it and lived too far away) and then took the prospective employer to a tribunal for “religious discimination” and was awarded £4,000, I’ve been [...]

The controversy over Fitna, like all such controversies, renders one fact about our world especially salient: Muslims appear to be far more concerned about perceived slights to their religion than about the atrocities committed daily in its name. Our accommodation of this psychopathic skewing of priorities has, more and more, taken the form of craven [...]

I don’t live in the USA, so I’ve never actually seen Fox News properly. However, I have seen enough clips on YouTube and via the likes of Bill Maher and The Daily Show to realise how they treat reality. 1 Sky News, as hilarious as it is, isn’t a patch on Fox.
However, though [...]

In a stunning case of political correctness gone horribly mad and special treatment for (obviously “moral”) god botherers, it seems that there is a “case” whereby imprisoned sex offenders who adhere to a certain flavour of magical thinking may be allowed to opt out of treatment for their crimes.
The treatment programme seemingly entails a period [...]

Last week I bought a teddy bear for a tenner, and named it Mohammed.
At the weekend, I sold it for £20. I think this means I made a prophet.

The British “guerilla” graffiti artist that goes under the nom de guerre Banksy has recently been to the Middle East to offer the locals his particular brand of controversial graffiti.
This example is to be found in Bethlehem in the Palestinian West Bank:

As a statement, this image of a dove (presumably a “dove of peace” from [...]

The BBC has just reported that the British teacher at the centre of the Mohammed-named-teddy stupidity, Gillian Gibbons, has been pardoned by the Sudanese president al-Bashir after a meeting with two British muslim peers.
While I’m sure this will be seen in some circles (e.g. those of an islamic and/or political bent) as the Sudanese government [...]

Thrawn has a challenge for us infidels: create a horribly drawn image of Islam’s prophet Mohammad, and display it in a public area. Yes, the Internet counts.
Here’s my entry:

It makes more sense than demon-haunted pigs…

Do you remember the challenge that Christopher Hitchens apparently mentions in his new book Portable Atheist (which I haven’t yet read) and put to theists everywhere while touring with God Is Not Great? I’ll remind you:
Name me an ethical statement made or an action performed by a believer that could not have been made [...]

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 [...]

Yeah, you read that right…
I really have no comment to make on this story, apart from a great big
What The Fuck?
A British teacher has been arrested in Sudan for letting her children name a teddy bear Mohammed, the British Embassy said.
Gillian Gibbons, 54, from Liverpool, was detained on Sunday on suspicion of insulting Islam’s prophet.

As reported by Reuters in this Yahoo! News article, the hearing for the privately brought blasphemy case against the BBC for its screening of Jerry Springer: The Opera has wound-up, with a ruling expected at a later date.
The Yahoo! article writes about the arguments used to bring the case:
[Jon] Thoday is the producer of musical [...]

Apparently it does, according to this magazine article over on the BBC.
Let’s see if this is true:

I’d like to see some muslim opinion on whether this doctored image could be considered amusing.
