Freedom To Blaspheme

Islam, the sweaty armpit of religion.

Created by a desert rambler who excelled in fantasy and paedophilia. Whether he was a "man of his times" as many are wont to declare, or he was just just a thirsty child molester, Aisha was too damn young to be anyone's wife. Such was the character of this charlatan.

Moving on: Islam has an estimated 1.8 billion adherents; some good, some bad. One thing they do seem to have in common is that blasphemy merits death. True, one can poke fun at the implied divinity of one Jesus fellow, but can't so much as draw this bloody twit of a prophet. Seriously!

Adultery - stone the woman.

Rape (also adultery) - stone that whore!

Homosexuality - nah, don't even mention it.

Ipso facto, Islam is a bloodthirsty religion toned down to some extent by moderates and amplified by extremists.

Every religion throughout history seems to bear a semblance of Islamic bloodlust, not least the extremist Buddhist regime in Myanmar, which, ironically, is cracking down on Rohingya Muslims!

Now, everyone is free to believe and practice what they wish, even if their object of worship is a giant Madagascar hissing cockroach. However, the farcically vengeful nature of Islamic edicts is just plain stupid. Islamic countries aren't particularly well known for their favourable treatment of women, perhaps with the lone exception of Turkey. 

Why Turkey? Kemal Pasha Atatürk promoted equal rights for women before it was fashionable, and mainly because he wanted parity with western Europe. He went as far as converting Hagia Sofia, which once was an orthodox church, from its status as a mosque, into a museum. Now, the current Turkish president has reverted the site back to a masjid, and the less said about that tripe, the better.

Nigeria is divided equally between christian and muslim adherents. It's a country which has known serious grief in the past due to religious sectarianism and corruption. As an aside, it's quite remarkable how the most religious of nations are usually the most corrupt. That includes north Korea where the fat Kim is practically defied. 

If you "commit blasphemy" in parts of Nigeria, you'll incur a death sentence.¹ No prizes for correctly guessing which part of the country. Islam seeks control, as does every other religion. However, punishing thought and conscience seems to be exclusive to Islam at this point in world history. 

We should have more illustrations of this charlatan's mug, paintings even. Expression and art is invaluable to humanity and the suppression of it is a crime of conscience. Blasphemy is, and always has been, a victimless crime.²

The "prophet" was a charlatan; a snake oil salesman with paedophilic predilection. He convinced an entire portion of humanity that he ascended to "heaven" on a flying horse (that was quite the blunt hit.) He was nothing special, and he's probably just a collection of desolate bone fragments at this point.

Call it what it is, Islam is as oppressive as the medieval catholic church.
