[...] He may find unwelcomed allies in a couple of Islamic clerics who recently condemned Mickey Mouse to death, here. [...]

Since the conversation has turned to the applicability of this fatwa as it applies to greater rodentia, where indeed does the line stop?

Rabbbit?
Gerbils?
Hamsters?
Squirrels?
Neocons?

No, no, wait. I was going to make a joke there, but contrasting Neocons and rats seems terribly unjust to the rats.

thats a load of … amazed a man of your intelligence would even blog something like that.

Mice are recognised as rodents the world over and hence we have mouse traps and rat poison. its as simple as that.

Whenever I ponder the exciting new century we live in and the progress that’s in store for us, I’m brought back to reality by a story such as this. Religious fanatics lack a sense of irony and are therefore dangerous to the rest of us. The problem isn’t religion per se, it is that religions are overseen by people and in my own pet theory at least 5% of all humanity(6 Billion people roughly) is stark raving mad. Unfortunately, at least 20% of that 5% are Religious Fundamentalists. I guess that out to be roughly 60,000,000 insane fanatics running around the world. If 1% of those are the religious leaders of the rest, than there are 600,000 insane people trying to enforce their beliefs on the rest of us. Goodbye Mick.

Maybe that’s the answer. Create a cadre of fictional animated characters onto which these religious loons can vent their spleen, and leave all us womens and gays alone.

Obama-sama:

“This is why, to quote Zappa, “you can’t run a country by a book of religion, not by a lump or a pinch or a smidgen.””

Amen!

Some people’s hot
Some people’s cold
Some people’s not very
Swift to behold
Some people do it
Some see right through it
Some wear pyjamas
If only they knew it

The pyjamas people are boring me to pieces
They make me feel like I am wasting my time
They all got flannel up ‘n down ‘em
A little trap-door back aroun’ ‘em
An’ some cozy little footies on their mind

Po-jama people!
Po-jama people, people!
Lawd, they make you sleepy
With the things they might say
Po-jama people!
Po-jama people, people!
Mother, Mary ‘n Jozuf, wish they’d all go away!

You may have something there Raff.

In fact, maybe these guys don’t realize Mickey isn’t real.

Maybe they think he’s a real life evil American walking talking… and quite colorfully dressed, mouse.

Which means right now somewhere in Orlando theres a Islamic cleric walking around with a silenced 9 millimeter and a picture from a comic book whose about to shoot a high school dropout wearing a mouse suit.

This is another amazing story of religion going bonkers. I do have one question. Are rats included in this contract of death? If so, then we could have this Muslim exterminator take care of the rats in out big cities. But leave Mickey alone, please!

I haven’t see this but it did put together crack, possibly obtained from the priest of these people’s choice, and a televised death of Mickey Mouse, so it sounds inherently religious to me…
“Me, Kobe and Zach acting out the killing of Mickey Mouse on Crack. It was kinda of a lol movie for us but it was my first vid, ever.”

Executing a cartoon?

They call that insanity in most circles.

So in May of 2002, while I was in Pakistan, I expounded on Jung’s theory that frogs were God’s first attempt at making humans. And while I was explaining this to various scholars and clerics, they seemed very amused at my theory that perhaps Munkar and Nakir, the messengers of Allah, were probably frogs.

Whatever.
