[QUOTE="wurd2, post: 7927207, member: 15196"] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n53-3QnhxZk]YouTube - Crucial Step Towards Sharia Law? U.N. Anti Blasphemy Resolution - Christopher Hitchens @ CNN[/ame] This resolution—which would criminalize "offensive" criticism of religion, Islam in particular—must be opposed at all costs. Aside from being a large step in the wrong direction, it is a direct threat to our constitutional freedom of expression which is arguably the most important freedom we have. In this CNN interview, Christopher Hitchens' commentary is spot on. He says that the extraordinary claim of Islam, in that it is the final revelation of God and the Koran is the ultimate book, combined with a law that prohibits the expression of doubt towards this claim is totalitarianism defined. That a large number of countries support this resolution, which is apparently moving forward, makes me absolutely sick. No belief or idea should be protected from criticism. I am most interested in the thoughts of those members that [i]do[/i] support this resolution. What you have to say is almost as important as our need to challenge and change your mind.
