Another Christian Faces Death in Pakistan over Blasphemy.

'Until when he reached the place where the sun set, he found it going down into a black sea, & found by it a people. We said: "O Zulqarnain! (Alexander the Great.) Either give them a chastisement or do them a benefit."' So says Allah the pagan moon good, in verse 18:86 of his repulsive & risible Koran.

We can see from this verse that Islam is a pathetic & transparent raft of drivel, written by uneducated savages in the middle of the desert. Because Islam fails to stand up to scrutiny so atrociously, Muslims who have nothing else to cling to & those in power in Muslim countries, who rely on this drivel to cling to authority, need to protect this diabolical creed from any criticism or ridicule with draconian measures.

This is why Muslims are constantly up in arms over cartoons in the West. It is also why, aside from the usual visceral hatred from the unbeliever that Islam inspires, Christians are routinely arrested in Pakistan & menaced with the prospect of the death penalty for blasphemy. The latest is a 16-year-old boy who put a picture of the Kaaba on his FaceBook page, as reported by the Daily Express today:

Christian boy, 16, facing DEATH PENALTY for offending Muslims in Facebook post A 16-YEAR-OLD Christian boy faces the death penalty after he was accused of insulting Islam in a Facebook post. The boy has been arrested and charged with blasphemy after a photo of the Kaaba in Mecca, one of the holiest sites in Islam, appeared on his profile. A Muslim man told police the image, which was part of an alleged derogatory post against Islam on the boy's profile, was insulting and sacrilegious. The black cube-shape is built around an ancient stone at the centre of Islam's most sacred mosque Al-Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Locals reportedly claimed the image showed the Kaaba with a pig's head on top. Shahbaz Ahmed, a police official, said the informant contacted officers over a post "hurting religious sentiments of Muslims and desecrating the religious place". He said the boy "had done a great injustice to us by badly hurting our religious feelings". Police did not release details of the contents of the post, other than it included a photo of the Kaaba. It is unclear if the boy posted the image, was tagged in the post or liked the post.

But under Pakistan's strict blasphemy laws, the teenage boy faces the death penalty or a life sentence. The Facebook post has since been deleted. His family have been forced to flee their home in Bhai Pheru for fear of violence as their sons awaits trial in prison. Wilson Chowdhry, chairman of the British Pakistani Christian Association, said: "This incident again underlines the worthlessness of Christians in Pakistan. A 16-year-old boy who has been accused of a blasphemy, has been placed in a prison without any proper investigation. "Social media can be a force for good or for bad, and we are all too aware of trolling in the west. However few understand the blasphemy entrapment Christians can face in Pakistan and often on flimsiest evidence, for which I can see social media becoming an ever more prolific weapon. "Pakistani Christians try to be active parts of society and will have friends from the local Muslim community. It is hard to be part of the local community when you exclude the largest diversity, however perhaps in future Christians in Pakistan should observe a more stand-offish approach when adding Muslims to their social media. "Clearly, even long term friends will bay for your blood if they feel that you have slighted their faith. perhaps it would be wise to prevent such hatred by more aloofness in future." Human rights organisations say Pakistan's blasphemy laws often target religious minorities. Religious offences include "wounding religious feelings", "derogatory remarks" and "defiling the Koran". The country is the sixth most dangerous place in the world for Christians with the blasphemy laws often abused to settle personal scores.

Meanwhile a 17-year-old boy in Singapore was jailed for six weeks for "wounding religious feelings". Blogger Amos Yee pleaded guilty to six charges of deliberately posting comments on the internet in videos, blog posts and a picture that were critical of Christianity and Islam. Judge Ong Hian Sun told the district court that Yee's actions could "generate social unrest" and should not be condoned. Phil Robertson, deputy director of Human Right Watch's Asia division, said: "By prosecuting Amos Yee for his comments, no matter how outrageous they may have been, Singapore has unfortunately doubled down on a strategy that clearly violates freedom of expression. "For a country that prides itself on efficiency, Singapore should re-examine its approach, because every time the authorities go after him, it just adds to his online audience who are interested to find out the latest thing."
