Pakistani Lawyer Wants Mark Zuckerberg Executed

Earthquake Retrofit sends along a piece from The Register reporting on a nightmare scenario of legal jurisdiction on the Internet: a Pakistani lawyer has filed blasphemy charges, carrying the death penalty, against Mark Zuckerberg and other Facebook executives (and the pseudonomous user who initiated the "Draw Muhammad" contest last month). Pakistani police have apparently opened an investigation, according to this Google translation of a BBC Urdu report."

    If Israel doesn't acknowledge the right for Palestine to exist, why should Palestinians acknowledge the right for Israel to exist?

    Christianity isn't really that hard:

    • Believes that Christ was the Son of God
    • Believes in Christ's message from the New Testament, supplanting Old Testament beliefs where appropriate
    • Believes in Christ's resurrection from the dead

    Anything else is politics. But you'd be hard pressed to find a Christian that didn't claim to believe all of the above. Of course, the difference between practice and belief is a problem in all religions.
