ExACTly: Mercury must be rolling in his grave right now. MSM news coverage of this typically led with “Muslims *offended* by planned concert” etc.
When Muslims say they’re “offended,” it’s almost always a giveaway that they’re on the offensive.

I didnít know that Freddy Mercury was Persian. I knew he was gay. Not that it really mattered to me. As an amateur guitar player and aspiring song writer, I admired Mercury for his talent. He was one hell of a song writer. My two favorite Mercury songs were ìA crazy little thing called loveî and ìAnother one bites the dust.î It would be interesting to write a couple of parody songs regarding Islam based on these two. I donít have the talent to write parody, anyone else out there interested in trying?

The following lyrics should be sung to the tune of “Welcome to the Jungle”, by Guns N’ Roses.
Welcome to the 7th Century
We got bomb belts and knives
We got nothing that ya want
Honey but we do have the hives
We are the people that can steal
Whatever you may need
If ya got the money honey
We got your disease
Chorus:
In the 7th century
Welcome to the 7th century
Watch it bring you to your shun n,n,n,n,,n,n,,n,n,n,,n,n,,n knees, knees
I wanna watch you bleed
Welcome to the 7th Century
It gets worse here every day
If you want it you’re gonna bleed
But it’s the price you pay
And you’re a very sexy mule
That’s very hard ta please
You can taste my hairy thighs
But you won’t get me for free
In the 7th Century
Welcome to the 7th Century
Feel my, my my carbine
I, I wanna hear you scream
Welcome to the 7th Century
It gets worse here every day
Ya learn ta live like an animal
In the jungle where we play
If you got a hunger for what you see
You’ll take it eventually
You can have anything you want
But you better not take it from me
Chorus
And when you butcher and kill you never
Ever want to come down, so down, so down, so down YEAH!
You know where you are
You’re in the 7th Century, burqa baby
You’re gonna die
In the 7th Century
Welcome to the 7th Century
Watch it bring ya to your shu n,n,n,,n,n,,n,n,n,,n,n,,n,n,,n barn, barn

On a serious note: Gee, for a religion of peace, these numbnuts always get bent out of shape if anyone does what he pleases in a free and open society like the U.S. – even if that person isn’t even a Muzlum. These BARBARIANS are really too much.
As imam Mohammad al-shakuri El khalid Akhmed bin Sultan Khan Ashrawi Azan Khalid Khalid Mohammad said: “Islam is the religion of peace, love, and tolerance. And, if you don’t stop offending our sensibilities, the streets will run with blood!”
Secondly, where ARE the gay rights groups? Where is Hollywood?
Answer: The same closet they are hiding in as the feminists were when Clinton was raping everything in sight for eight years. In other words, it’s all political. LIBERALS don’t give a rat’s ass about America – as long as the means justify the ends in order to accomplish the downfall of America.

Debbie, Freddie knew all too well about Muslim intolerance. Queen had a bit of a spoof song called “Mustapha”:
Abrahim
Abrahim
Abrahim
Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah,
Will pray for you.
Hey!!

shleppy on September 6, 2006 at 7:54 pm

“Mustapha” doesn’t sound too satirical to me.

Thee_Bruno on September 6, 2006 at 8:02 pm

Don’t believe in killing someone for what I personally disagree with, but you kinda lost me after that. ALL religions that I am aware of, including Judaism, condemns the practice.

Phoenix on September 6, 2006 at 11:50 pm

I see just as much intolerance on the right towards gays. See: http://www.godhatesfags.com for proof.

Descent on September 7, 2006 at 9:25 am

Why are you targetting one religion.
All the religion bans homosexual and the treatment is no different from the right as the hatred muslims.
Out of the curiousity,
In Iasrael do we have marriage priviledges for gay or same sex partner? Can they live in open world
PAMAZON:
I AM NOT TARGETING ONE RELIGION. THE OTHER RELIGIONS DO NOT WISH DEATH ON GAYS. IN ISLAMIC COUNTRIES, LIKE EGYPT AND SAUDI ARABIA, GAYS ARE SENTENCED TO DEATH. I AM NOT A SUPPORTER OF GAY RIGHTS, WHICH IS DIFFERENT THAN SUPPORTING GAYS’ RIGHTS TO LIVE IN PEACE AND FREEDOM (WHICH I DO SUPPORT)–GAY RIGHTS CONFERS EXTRA BENEFITS ON GAYS, WHICH I OPPOSE. THAT SAID, ISRAEL, WHICH YOU ASKED ABOUT, IS IN FACT ON THE FOREFRONT OF GAY RIGHTS AND GAVE GAY PARTNER HEALTH AND OTHER BENEFITS BEFORE ANY EMPLOYER IN THE U.S. DID.

Nigerian man sentenced to stoning for gay sex
http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200507/s1410598.htm
Homosexuality in Islam is punishable by death but pederasty is permissible.
http://www.faithfreedom.org/Gallery/16.htm
Legal Sanctions
The punishment that the Islamic jurists generally prescribe for adultery, and therefore also for homosexual behaviour, is stoning to death for married people, and 100 lashes for unmarried people…

Thee_Bruno on September 7, 2006 at 10:37 am

Not sure I would call “godhatesfags” part of the right. I would call them a cult. My question is though: where does tolerance end? Where should it end? Or should it end? You decide. Once you get into the trap of tolerance, which is always a small step from acceptance, you may just find a bottomless pit.
All nations must decide where lines must be drawn, what behaviors are accepted as helpful to the society as a whole and will help it, and those behaviors which will harm it. But even by doing that, and it’s done by our courts daily, you will invariably be labeled a bigot by someone.
I’ve heard people say “you can’t legislate morality.” Bullsh**, we do it every day in this country e.g. though shall not murder, thou shall not steal, etc.
Anyway, I await your answer on where the line of tolerance is to be drawn and the “as long as no one is hurt” answer leads to traps as well. As I’ll show if that is your answer.

Phoenix on September 7, 2006 at 10:42 am

By the way, my own personal position is that what Freddie Mercury did in his own private life on this issue is his own business. I’m talking above about PUBLIC policy.

Phoenix on September 7, 2006 at 10:51 am

Why blame the Muzlumz? Because, AS USUAL, they are attacking someone for behavior they hypocritically deem un-Islamic. It’s the MUzlumz who can’t live and let live, AS USUAL! These pious, morally-superior, 7th century barbarians are AGAIN, on the move.
They don’t seem to grasp the idea that THIS IS AMERICA! This is not some totalitarianistic, barbaric, Islamic SHITHOLE from whence they came.
They CANNOT IMPOSE THEIR WILL on us.

Thee_Bruno on September 7, 2006 at 11:04 am

If you’re going to talk about intolerance towards homosexual behavior why focus on islam? Like another poster said, all religions condemn it. Even in America it’s not widely accepted. The Mathew Shepard murder is a perfect example. While it’s, for the most part, an isolated incident, the mindset that the killers were in, echoes the sentiments that millions of Americans feel. The fact that gay marriage was banned here in Ohio goes to show that many people aren’t going to the polls to vote based on clear and rational thought, but rather on what the Bible, the quaran, and almost any other religous text will tell you: “man shall not layeth with another man”.

Descent on September 7, 2006 at 11:34 am

The Judeo-Christian approach to homosexuality is worlds apart from that of Islam’s. The Bible does not advocate murdering homosexuals – the Qur’ an does. In fact, it demands it.
Matthew Shepard was murdered by a bunch of lunatics. They did not kill him as advocates of Christianity.
Americans don’t want gay marriage. They go to the polls to re-affirm that. Gay marriage will do irreparable harm to this country’s institutions and to our society. It will also bring about the downfall of the Catholic Church, or at the least, cause major problems for it. The same can be said of Jewsish Orthodoxy.
We’re focusing on Islam on this thread because Jews and Christians are not on the ATTACK regarding Freddie Mercury. Again, it’s the Muzlumz who are on yet another jihad.

Thee_Bruno on September 7, 2006 at 11:54 am

“if a line should be drawn then why blanme the muslims?”
PAMAZON:
Most of the problems I myself have with the Muslims is the extremes many of their sects go to. For instance, one may have his hand cut off for stealing a loaf of bread etc. etc.
Also, as a Westerner, I resent a covert-to-Islam-or-die teaching, you will either have to kill me or I will kill you if that is your intention. In other words, that ain’t happening.
There are however things taught in the Muslim religion that we can agree on. Various teachings on morality — wrong to steal, wrong to commit adultry, etc.
I can also tell you that most Western women are not the kinds of whores many Muslims think they are. But I know where many Muslims get that idea from — Western media and the filth that is vomited out of Holywood. I am ashamed of them. I can assure you that sexual chastity has been a part of Western religious and cultural teaching for thousands of years. It has only been since the 1960s that the trash we see now began to appear. I resent the way many Muslims treat Western women and I have seen this myself personally.
Also, because Western women have more freedoms than Muslim women is not necessarily a bad thing. And it does not make the Western man weak for allowing this. It just means that we view women differently. The bad part is though, that even as Tammy Bruce (a lesbian feminist) noted, with that freedom comes more responsibility. And sadly many Western women don’t take that responsibility seriuously enough.

Phoenix on September 7, 2006 at 11:55 am

PAMAZON and Descent,
While you are correct that most religions condemn homosexuality, the majority of Christians and Jews, I presume, do not kill gay people. I am only speaking on my experiences as a Catholic and by no means a moral authority. Catholics believe homsexuality is wrong and unnatural but it is up to God to judge them, not us. We will not promote homosexuality, i.e. voting for gay marriage, but we will not torture or stone homosexuals. Their private bedroom acts are their choice, provided it’s consentual. This is the difference between modern Judeo/Christian beliefs and Islam. The Christian religious groups that are forcefully against homosexuality, for example the crazy sect of pseudo-Baptists that protest at military funerals saying that is God’s punishment on the US for allowing homosexuality, is a very small, small minority and does not represent normal Baptists. As far as I know. Bottom line, if a Catholic beats up or kills a homosexual, for being gay, that Catholic is just as wrong if not more condemned for their hatred acts. As opposed to Sharia law where homosexuals are routinely executed and tortured for their sexual preferences.

Minnie Mouse on September 7, 2006 at 11:58 am

Continuing with PAMAZON, that many Muslims are in fact raping Western women around the globe is a fact. While at the same time they resent a Western man even looking at a Muslim woman.
As a traditional Western man, I must tell you that there is very little worse that you could do to me than to rape my daughter. And as a traditional Western man I would then have the obligation to break every bone in your god damned body for doing so.

Phoenix on September 7, 2006 at 12:07 pm

Thee_Bruno, just as I side note, I do appreciate the civility in your response to me. Hopefully, we’ll be able to co-exist on this board for as adults from now on.

Descent on September 7, 2006 at 12:10 pm

Descent,
It’s a two-way street. Let’s not forget that.

Thee_Bruno on September 7, 2006 at 12:12 pm

And that’s the thing PAMAZON, in some Muslims country I would be praised for defending my daughters honor by killing you. Whereas here in the U.S. I would go to jail for doing so. Which by the way, I would probably be willing to for a crime like that.

Phoenix on September 7, 2006 at 12:15 pm

“Descent,
It’s a two-way street. Let’s not forget that.”
And forget it I wont. As long as you’re civil towards me, regardless of what you say or think, I promise I’ll return the favor 🙂

Descent on September 7, 2006 at 12:20 pm

No Phoenix, if your daughter was raped in an Islamic country, you would be required to kill HER for dishonoring your family. Unless she could provide 4 male witnesses that she was in fact raped. There is no protection for women in Islam.

Minnie Mouse on September 7, 2006 at 12:21 pm

Descent,
you said;
“As long as you’re civil towards me, regardless of what you say or think, I promise I’ll return the favor…”
Ditto. Let’s not try to say that I was always first with the hostility, OK?
BTW, Minnie Mouse – you are CORRECT!

Thee_Bruno on September 7, 2006 at 12:28 pm

This is off topic-ish, but Minnie Mouse’s last post reminded me of it. Have guys seen the Law & Order SVU where the muslim daughter is slaughtered because her father found out that she had sex before marriage, and then the mother testifies against him, and he kills her then flee’s the country. It’s scary stuff.

Descent on September 7, 2006 at 12:29 pm

Yes I saw it. Unfortunately though it’s rare for the wife to testify against the husband either out of fear for her life or because she believes in the same archaic traditions.

Minnie Mouse on September 7, 2006 at 12:35 pm

“Ditto. Let’s not try to say that I was always first with the hostility, OK?”
If it sounded like that, sorry, didn’t mean for it to. I know that I initiated more than my fair share of crap with you, and that it wasn’t always you at all.

Descent on September 7, 2006 at 12:39 pm

Why dont you ask muslim?it is true if a girl have been rape she need 4 men as witness..who says that…??? i like to quote minnie mouse statement..the father have to kill their daughter for been rape and therefore dishonoring their family…that happen in certain muslim country not because islam said so…its because they dont know islam…actually there is no such thing like killing your daughter if they been rape…that happen because of their culture..not because islam tell them to do so…there is no such thing…i.ve been living in muslim country..there is no such thing….by the way egypt is not a muslim country..they practising secularisme so with malaysia, indonesia…if that country is a muslim country they will used shariah law in their court..not sivil law…

To Ohio,

Who said that thinking/voting with your religion or moral opinions in mind isn’t rational? Only people that don’t want to hear anything negative about their actions say that. Moral teachings have kept us alive for thousands of years. The common person knew nothing about hygiene and disease. The only ‘scholars’, for thousands of years, that gave a damn about mankind were religous teachers. The only other educated people back then were Royalty and they could’ve cared less about mankind. God and religion said you and I are equals long before any human ever did. I can assure you there would be no ‘Civil Rights’ without God and religion and PLEASE don’t insult my intelligence with some ‘canned’ left-winged answer about the democrat party or some other ‘man-made’ organization. I want to respect you, really! Don’t be so quick to ‘trash’ religion. Millions of people on this planet would act differently if they thought no one was watching and with their believing in God, somebody is watching and they think twice and do the right thing. It is those who respect nothing that I am worried about. They keep changing laws to suit their fancy which means their is no law. Adults need to act like adults and realize that their actions are never acted in a vacuum. Actions have consequences. People with no concern for others can and have unleashed disease on a populace and we all know this is true whether in is PC or not. How come a small segment of society is so concerned with the funding of a disease that effects so few? We both know the answer to that and that answer is ‘behavior’ and the lack of desire to change it. As a matter of fact this group raised it’s middle finger and DEMANDED we cure this disease while they took no actions to curb a practice that they, more than anyone, knew to be harmful to their health and the health of others. To receive compassion it is best to show some. Mr. Ohio, rational thinking deals in facts, not emotions. Gay marriage, as a law, is an emotion. It makes no common sense at all. In my opinion it is an attack on the institute of marriage to demean it. After all this time we suddenly need Gay Marriages? This is a political ploy to get benefits and to take defenseless children into a gay home and indoctrinate them. That is digusting, you are now attacking children and I no longer care about your feelings. You have no right to inflict this upon innocent children and the fact that you would try speaks volumes about your direction and true beliefs. Again, to receive compassion you must show it,first. I’m not seeing that. Leave the institute of marriage and children, alone. Live with the choice you made.
