Please try to understand that the British humour is generally dark and sick, we are used to it and grow up with it, Pee Wee means no offence and Woof neither, you can tell that by their posts but given a chance to laugh at things we do and we will carry on (scuse the pun) doing that and I hope it never changes.

If we were on a Muslim site or country then its a different matter but this is the norm in Britain and it aint a Muslim thing (though that is happening at the moment) its just a take the mick out of anything and anybody thing.

Have you ever seen Life of brian

Taff, us Lebanese have worst humors! we often offend people because we like it and that is because to stir up trouble. In my many days I have heard so many offensive jokes thats even worst than the ones i'm reading, for example about blacks, hispanics, Americans, Europeans and Muslims, so I tend to defend my culture and my religion from serious offensive remarks. I don't know much about British humor, but infact i was just offended with one certain aspect that I felt it was a bit over the line.

Monty Python's Life Of Brian is a 1979 comedy by Monty Python, which deals with the life of Brian Cohen (played by Graham Chapman), a young man born on the same night and the same street as Jesus Christ.

In 2000, readers of Total Film magazine voted it the greatest comedy film of all time. In 2004 the same magazine named it the 5th greatest British film of all time. Also, in 2006 it was voted the best comedy movie of all time on two separate polls conducted by the British TV channels Channel 4 and Five. On the Internet Movie Database, the film is consistently ranked among the top 100 films of all time.

Brian (Graham Chapman) is born in the stable a few doors down from the one in which Jesus was born (a fact which initially confuses the three wise men come to praise Him, as they must put up with Brian's boorish mother Mandy until they realize their mistake). He grows up to be an idealistic young man who resents the continuing Roman occupation of Judea. While attending the Sermon on the Mount, he becomes infatuated with an attractive young rebel, who persuades him to join one of the many fractious and bickering separatist movements plotting to strike at the Roman occupiers. His first assignment as a rebel is an attempt at scrawling some graffiti ("Romanes eunt domus") on the wall of the governor's palace. This succeeds beyond his wildest dreams when he is caught by a passing Roman guard who, in disgust at Brian's improper Latin grammar, forces him to write out the 'corrected' message ("Romani ite domum") one hundred times – also on the governor's palace wall.

Unfortunately, a series of coincidences resulting from a failed raid on the palace, and culminating with some meaningless babble Brian recites as an attempt to avoid the Roman guards, leads a small army of people to come to regard Brian as the Messiah. Despite his best efforts to convince people that this isn't the case, and his attempts to use his influence to get people to embrace their individuality and not rely on authority figures (advice which is merely parrotted back at him, unthinkingly), he is arrested, sentenced to death, crucified, and abandoned by anyone who could possibly help him. Still, by the closing credits, he is persuaded to "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life".

If you get the chance to see it Metalhead you will see what Taff is meaning.

well the cleric who kicked up the storm about "meat on show" in australia has collapsed complaining of chest pains and has been relieved of his duties

so is that karma or mere convenience?

i wonder if he'll now change his tune due to what's happened to him and become a karma chameleon?

He hasn't be relieved of his duties, nor has been asked to step down, as far as i know.

I have listened to one of his sermons, many years ago. I had to walk out. In truth a lot mufti's in Oz go over the top. Hell and damnation, that sort of thing. Its not necessary IMO.

When i was a lot younger on a visit to Oz, my dad took me to a mosque in Brisbane and the sermon was quite scary. My dad stood up in the middle of it and told the mufti to shut up, becuase he was scaring the youngesters, i was very proud of him.

according to the bbc he was suspended and he has now asked to be relieved of his duties because of his heart scare.

probably brought on by the stress of someone standing up to him after years of hiding behind his religion to explain why he has such outlandish beliefs

Manhattan has seen a lot of "meat on show" that would be enough to turn a person into a vegetarian.

i would imagine he visited the mosque to pray as most muslims do and then decided to not to that mosque again because it was radical, he does say he only saw him once so its not as though he went to this mosque and enjoyed it.

thats how i read it anyway mate

I sent you a PM. Hope it answers your question.

Peewee, i only go to a mosque once a year (if that) and could hardly be considered a good muslim. That's why i've kept out of this debate. But i know for sure that these types of sermons send the wrong message, islam is about love not hate & sins.

I think i'll get out of this thread now... :blush:
