Booty just isn’t holy enough for some godheads. Sad day.

“Two more churches and a Catholic convent school in Malaysia have been targeted by arsonists, amid a row over the use of the word “Allah” by non-Muslims.” – reports Al Jazeera.
Yet another example of the extremes people will embrace to protect their magic men and silly books.
“Four churches in the Kuala Lumpur area have been hit by firebombs since Friday, leaving one badly damaged with its ground floor gutted, and prompting Najib Razak, the prime minister, to promise to crack down on race crime.”
All this for the horrible crime of using the word ‘Allah’. Like it has some sort of special meaning. Well, I guess it does if you are religiously deluded.
People wonder why I take such a strident anti-religious position. A good deal of my animosity springs from incidents such as this. When simply using word can get your church firebombed. This is not rational behaviour.
Human beings have trouble thinking rationally at the best of times. Religion adds fuel to ignorance and rigidity of thinking making incidents like what happened in Malaysia possible.
