Who said this:

Garton-Ash: "Our seventh principle is that we respect the believer but not necessarily the content of the belief. Would you agree with that?"

.....  says that "almost all people who have religious belief are realist about their belief", which he explains means that people of faith see it as objective and that blasphemy is therefore seen as an objective harm which does more than just hurt feelings. He then gives the example of a demeaning depiction of the Prophet Mohammed, "The point is that for a Muslim, a depiction, particularly a comic or demeaning depiction, of the Prophet Mohammed might have the emotional force of a piece of grotesque child pornography.

"One of the mistakes secularists make is not to understand the character of what blasphemy feels like to someone who is a realist in their religious belief."

Hint, this person may or may not have been the most significant director general of the BBC during the last 10-15 years.

Given that it's some BBC high-up, probably some pedophile.

One or two bbc journalists* aren't covering themselves in glory on this, "The Prophet Mohammed". 

Am I the only one who can't parse this sentence?

He's complaining about the use of the title "prophet" for Mohammed.

Mohammed the donkey fucker, child rapist, murderer and lying bastard who pretended to be a prophet and created an imperialist ideology called Islam the religion of peace?

Ahh, ok.

Well I hope ISIL's cyber division won't find that post. :p

[Siege]

What's the difference between a prophet and a professor?

One of them have an slight chance of not thinking he is the center of the world.

Well I hope ISIL's cyber division won't find that post. :p

I am pretty sure that Siege's answer to IS would be "Molon Labe".

Is fear of Islam spreading to Languish?
I had enough with Brazen's not-so-brazen post surrendering freedom of speech to the donkey-fuckers.

Are these guys still at large?

They flew away in a CIA plane piloted by Dubya himself.

Are these guys still at large?

I've seen it implied there might be ongoing operations, but that the French media and others might not be reporting it, so as to not give the terrorists assistance.


I don't know if that's true or if the French have a system of censoring such coverage?

Two males aged 32 and 34 respectively suspected, living in Pantin in Paris. Also some stuff about Reims.
The two perpetrators allegedly had returned from Syria. Now that is hardly surprising.

Our media have been talking about three assailants for the last couple of hours. 

Yes, no surprise about the Syria connection, I guess that's where they got so skilled in massacring civilians.

Two males aged 32 and 34 respectively suspected, living in Pantin, outside Paris but not that far. Also some stuff about Reims.

Fixed! The Pantin banlieue has seen some limited gentrification, things were improving but slowly. One of the first huge housing projects (Courtillières) with high rises in Île-de-France.

Twitter is mobilising:

Obviously a fake. That pencil sharpener is much too big for the pencils.

Looks more like an M-16, or at least a chopped down M-4.
