Muslim boys urinated on Bible

BlaznFattyz · 12-10-2006, 05:14 AM

Two Muslim students have been expelled from an Islamic school in Melbourne for urinating and spitting on a Bible and setting it on fire.

The explosive incident has forced the East Preston Islamic College to call in a senior imam to tell its 650 Muslim students that the Bible and Christianity must be respected...

Well, I think they should be killed...or at least have a hand chopped off or something. Kinda dumb to urinate on something and then set it on fire. Now, if it was one of those Bibles with the onion skin pages they could've use it for rolling papers. That way they could've still burned it.

The religion of Christianity and Islam produces different actions in their adherers because of their leaders. Islam is founded on Muhammad's glory. Therefore, when disrespected in anyway, the Muslims will fight to uphold their honor. Christianity is based about the Shame and Humility of Christ. Therefore, when faced with opposition, disrespect, persecution, etc., we bless those who hate us and prayer that God will save them. Far be it from us to seek to wear crows of glory when our precious Lord and King wore a crown of thorns. We will continue to preach the truth in love, despite opposition. In the most extreme of cases, God is known for turning haters of Him, into preachers who die for their beliefs (without ever fighting).

Silas! That was written beautifully! I knew you could do it!

I think that in this case where there was inappropriate action and the powers that be immediately responded this is quite admirable. Muslims refer to Christians and Jews respectfully as 'people of the book' the book that is the source of their scriptures.

If we look back on similar happenings at Gitmo, not by kids/students, but by the authority figures...desecrating the Koran, seems we all have something to learn about proper behaviour.

With that I heartily agree! I have several Qur'ans that I read occasionally, and would never think of desecrating one no matter how bad the Muslims act. Sacred Scripture is in every religion, whether we agree with it or not, and it deserves humane respect. As a previous Air Force member, I can't imagine our men doing what they did at Gitmo. But then, Mr. Bush has instituted something I thought I would never see in America---torture!

Don't blame Islam. Their mothers and fathers just didn't raise them right.

Since Jesus is considered alive by most Christians, and He hasn't come down to kick some serious butt, I suppose we shouldn't either.

Not over a few pages of written word anyway...

It did not happen Wil. It was a bull crap story. The Qu'ran destroyed was done so by the Arab prisoners and then sent out that the US military did it. But video recordings show actual events. The authority figures never touched the Qu'ran in any way that was disrespectful. Infact my friend, it was the US military that provides copies of the Qu'ran for those at Guantonimo Bay, Cuba, to begin with.

Perpetuating a negative myth is not exactly proper either...

Namaste Q,

Sorry for leading folks to the implication that I was refering to the false accusation regarding the flushing..the accusations which lead to the investigation to which the Pentagon replied that there were some mishandling incidents of the Quran in early days at Guantanamo, then procedures were put in place. I will not/did not perpetuate myths about things I know not of. As their only exists rumors as to what these mishandlings were (secondary investigations not declassified as of yet), I'll stand by my statement..

seems we all have something to learn about proper behaviour.

Yeah, they didn't wash their hands and feet first. And they are infidels, so touching the Qu'ran in anyway is mishandling.

Maybe, just maybe a soldier might have tossed a Qu'ran into a cell, after having excrement thrown at him (I'd have done alot worse)...

You know, this thread is inflammatory to begin with.

At the request of the originator of this thread, it is open again. However, this is a very touchy subject, and as such I implore all posting here to consider that, when posting thoughts.

it is good to see that although there are differences among religions and the media throws lots of those negative differences in our faces, articles such as these teach great lessons of respect that need to be taught to the children, instead of our observance of no comment or looking the other way on bad behaviour.

"My lesson to them was to respect their neighbours and respect all religions," Mr Haouli said yesterday."
