  Yes, let’s continue insulting Islam in the name of this fictitious article

  Again the Christian Right Wing is once again in Panic Mode. This was a Resolution Banning the Defamation of all Religions, not just Islam. I hate organized religion.

  For fucks sake. Some of you are complete morons.
  ZOMG FUX0R THE UN! ..
  read the damned article, how about the nice text on the top that says, “Damian Thompson [the author] is editor-in-chief of the Catholic Herald. The Church Times once described him as a “blood-crazed ferret”.

  Now, what “resolution” was this exactly? I don’t know. He’s quick to mention that it was passed quietly but he won’t provide ANY proof of it’s contents or identification.
  So now you mindless drones bitching about liberals and democrats when neither have ANY relation to this issue can get off your fucking thrones.

  All religion (including Islam) is for suckers.
