Seriously, shouldn't it be the _children_ who get stoned?

A British primary school teacher has been arrested in Sudan, accused of insulting Islam's Prophet by letting her class of 7-year-olds name a teddy bear Mohammed, her school said on Monday.

This is hardly fair, it was the kids that did the blaspheming. :-P

Heh... That's how I feel about most political/social issues that people tend to make "omgod this is weird/intuitively wrong/EVIL!" arguments about. But, yeah, definetly you=rockage.

Thanks, you made the argument, though. By the way, I'd like to meet you over Christmas if that would be ok, I gotta vet the screaming hordes of ladies after Mike. I'm not sure that one sorry date 11 years ago gives me that privilege but I'll take it anyway, I've known him longer than anybody else in Madison and I tend to trust his opinion ;)

O...K...? Slight fear?

I've friended you for 2 reasons; a) if you're bored, you can now read my posts, thus gathering evidence for when you turn to Mike with a "oh. Oh dear gods. Why? Why would you do this to yourself?" b) more importantly, in the next few days I should be getting a new cell phone (yes, I'm joining the demonics). When I do I'll be posting the number on a friends-locked post, and thereafter said number will probably be the best way to reach me.
