"I can confirm Gillian Gibbons has been charged under article 125 of the Sudanese Criminal Code. The charges are insulting religion and inciting hatred," said a spokesman for the Foreign Office.
It was reported earlier Wednesday that a boy in Gibbon's class defended the teacher, saying the proposal to give the teddy the name Mohammed came from him. |
in the article you will see the boy who named the bear named it after himself and not the ...'prophet"...mo-ham... |

While I would hardly call it insane, it is not unlike many of the Islamic cultures to do something like this, ignore the facts and hold the westerner responsible.

The Truth About Muhammad - Founder of the World's Most Intolerant Religion by Robert Spencer.
A real eye opener. I highly recommend this to read.

It wasn't even the teachers fault, it was the kids who named the teddy bear so should all the kids be executed?

good question...  ...
people really need to grow past wanting to kill folks for insulting their religion...even if it is an intentional insult...
if GOD/god wants someone dead...HE is very capable of accomplishing the goal...and if he can't...then he is not HIM... |

Praise the Lord! But the fact that she was even charged with wrongdoing and her life was threatened over the name of a teddy bear shows what an evil religion Islam is. And yes, I'm generalizing, and I won't apologize for it. There was no element if Islam that came the teacher's defense, which comes as no surprise.

That's the problem, the god of Islam is not the God of Jews and Christians. Jesus warned that he didn't come to bring peace to the world. He warned that we would have enemies, and that the heavens suffer violent and the violent take it by force. God is not at peace with the devil that the Muslims worship, which is why Muslims have always sought to kill Jews and Muslims and have succeeded by the millions. Their very thirst for Jewish and Christian blood is a sure indicator of the demonic "Allah" moon god that they worship. No other conclusion can be drawn in a credible manner.

I have never met a Christian who worships the cross, and I have never met a Muslim who worships the moon.
God is a god of peace. El, elyon, eloah, allah -- pax, eirene, salam. It does not matter which language you use.
