Obviously, they’re not as respectful of others’ religions as we are here…
Bibles found in the possession of visitors to Saudi Arabia are routinely confiscated by customs officials, and in some cases copies allegedly have been put through a paper shredder, according to religious rights campaigners.
Well, that hardly seems fair. However, as they say on infomercials, “But wait! There’s More!”
“If you have more than one Bible you will be taken into custody, and if you have a quantity of Bibles you will be given 70 lashes for sure – you could even be executed.”
Executed for possessing books. Guess their Bureau of Tourism office is not a very busy place.
I’m guessing that upon hearing of this news, Christians in this country will begin rioting. There be blood flowing in the streets of the red states.
Hang on, I’ll check…
Hmmm, Google news search for “Christian riot” only turns up one hit, and it’s about anti-Christian riots in Israel.
Maybe they’re just updating, I’ll check again…
Still nothing. But I’m sure it will happen…
Any moment now…
UPDATE: Still nothing yet, but while I’m waiting, let me add the following: Newsweek lied, people died.
Don’t forget about when the palastinian’s took over the temple of the Nativity in Jerusalem. They deficated all over the place, tore the crosses off of the walls, and used the Bibles for toilet paper.
Did we riot then? Nope.
Christianity. The laziest, half arsed religion on the planet. If it troubles you, go out and start the riot yourself.
Okay, I think you missed the point. The point is: Christians don’t start riots, just because holy places and items are damaged.
Hey you stole that from the bumper sticker "Bush Lied, Troops Died".
Haven’t you learned that Muslims are the most ethnocentric religion on the planet? Trust me, this is not news, I wish that it was.
Maybe, but as anyone who knows the facts will tell you, Bush didn’t lie.
