British Muslim woman convicted of penning poems about beheadings

I didn't read anything in there excusing that woman's behaviour. But that's just me.

Why do we seem so much more shocked when a girl from what ever background behaves or believes in such a barbaric way? Are such heinous thoughts only capable of being played out in the minds of men? It seems when a man thinks such thoughts he is an animal....when a female thinks it she is an enigma or bizarre or just something we cant figure out or recognize. God says we are all created equal right....this mean we can harbour thoughts of murder and mayhem equally well I would guess.

My opinion....they should check out who she's been hanging out with as you are the company you keep....she sure didnt get that way all by her lonesome. Also her beheading poem sounds like someone who knows what they are talking about if you know what I mean .

i would also like to ask why do nonmuslims always assume that making a muslim eat, touch, be covered in etc pig/pig blood/pig ###### is the ultimate in demeaning and insulting behavoir against the muslim...ever heard the adage...###### wipes off? We are forbidden to eat a pig....doesnt mean our skin will react as if acid was poured on it if we touched a pig etc....doesnt mean we are "marked" in anyway by the pig...geez u guys watch too many religous horror movies I guess. Just a thought.

I live imagining brother. I do.

"Imagine there's no Heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one"

J. Lennon
