Leave your guns at home, Bill
Taken straight from The Star:
SHAH ALAM: Female students in higher-learning institutes here are being persuaded not to wear panties on Valentine’s Day as an expression of true love for their boyfriends.
Looks like going bareback (barebottom?) is the way to go this Valentines. But hold on to your panties, no one’s going to pull a Britney if JAIS (State Islamic Affairs Department) has a say in things,
Datuk Mohammed Khusrin Munawi said: “We will not allow Muslim students to be taken in by such celebrations that deviate from the teachings of Islam.”
How are they gonna check, though? I’d suggest this:
The folks are flaming
While Friday is traditionally a day for Muslims to pray in the mosques, some poor sods got confused and went to church instead.
Oh yeah, they also set the church on fire. Of course, the trailblazers started yesterday.
All signs point towards this being part of the ongoing “Silly Christians, Allah is for Muslims” saga.
Your text that would incite a light
Imagine this: Malaysian Muslims are getting butthurt because a Christian publication is referring to God as “Allah”. That’s like a Windows Vista user getting angry at a Windows XP user for using the name of The Lord, Bill Gates.
I assume the newspapers are blowing this out of proportion, as even old man PAS @ Nik Aziz feels the issue is meh, more MLIA than FML. But when a person has the mindset that “my God can beat up your God”, being reminded that you may be praying to the very same god may seem frightening.
My take on the situation? Put your money on Ganesha, this mofo has the head of an elephant and four hands. Count ‘em: four hands. Hell, even with four hands tied behind his back, I bet the G-man could beat down Buddha with his trunk alone.
I’d say more, but apparently, the Malaysian Gov is keeping an eye out for loose lipped blogs that try to stir things up with their inflammatory writ. Spoil sports!
