LittleBigPlanet Delayed Due To Qur'an-Sampling Audio

Several readers have pointed out that Sony's much-awaited LittleBigPlanet has hit a snag and will be delayed worldwide. The delay came after it was discovered that a song licensed for use in the soundtrack contained audio samples from the Qur'an. All advanced copies sent to retailers for the target release of October 21 in North America, 22 in PAL territories, and 24 in the UK and Ireland, have been recalled. "The post, by user 'Solid08', indicates of the specific references in the composition: 'In the 18th second: "kollo nafsin tha'iqatol mawt", literally: "Every soul shall have the taste of death' ... almost immediately after, in the 27th second: "kollo man alaiha fan", literally: "All that is on earth will perish."'"

Ironic that I was labeled a Troll here. This is exactly what I am talking about.

Apparently I was baptized Catholic, and despite never having set foot in a Catholic church since I started remembering things (with the exception of a couple weddings and funerals), and being an avowed... er... pan-auto-atheo-agnostic-ist?*... an avowed definite-not-a-Christian for many years now, the Church still considers me Catholic anyway.

*(My beliefs about God are not easily categorized. I believe that "God" as a thing beyond the universe is a pure nonsense concept, not even intelligible, and that "gods" as powerful [meta]physical beings could, but probably do not in fact, exist, though we can't be absolutely sure, but we have no reason to think they do, and they wouldn't count as legitimate gods even if they did. However, "God" in a pantheistic sense would be a legitimate God, and could exist, but at this point in time apparently does not, and maybe never will, but truth and goodness can be properly defined in terms of what such a pantheistic deity would say if it were around, and as such people with epistemic and deontological virtue act as autotheistic deities in a sense, taking the role of God upon themselves).
