I mostly read things online, but I tend to go with the Guardian and Times... mostly the broadsheets. I can't stand tabloids... Originally Posted by Pensive Patrick

Seriously though, answer this question.......Why do islamic faith people take things so seriously?
If my religion said robes on peoples heads were unclean, does that give me any right to make them take their robes off their heads? NO
I have my religion, you have yours (well im atheist really but its an ex.)
We should respect each others beliefs, and NOT try to change each others cultures if we disagree.
Also, what the fuck does a puppy on a piece of paper do to harm muslims?
What if a muslim in england ran into a man walking his puppy, would the muslim man kill the puppy just because its unclean?
Also, who the heck thinks its an abomination to consider any living thing unclean? its not theirs or our right to determine wether a living thing is clean or unclean.
All the creatures of this earth are wonderful, from piranahs to crocs, to lizzards, to donkeys, to rabbits...no animal is 'unclean' in my opinion, and anybody who thinks some animals are, are taking their religion wayyyyyy to seriously.Last edited by guerilla; 07-01-2008 at 11:06 PM.

Yeah, it must be realised that British people love dogs (honestly) so there is a conflict there.
To be honest I don't think that most Muslims would have a problem with this. It would have been nice to see some sort of survey to back up Muslims' supposed disaproval of the advert.
The problem here is exaggeration by the "Daily Mail", as Bluefinger rightly pointed out is basically "toilet paper".Last edited by psychology student; 07-01-2008 at 11:12 PM.

Ahh I see, but is there really an 'outrage' over this ad? Or did the media just blow it out of proportion to make us mad at islamic people furthering the hatred they have for us?
