Standards? What Standards?

So - an elementary school teacher in the Sudan is looking at 40 lashes - and possibly a death sentence - because the students in her class decided to name a teddy bear "Mohammad". I have to wonder what they have planned for the students? They were the ones who named the damned thing!



Working off that logic, parents from Morocco to Indonesia should be beheaded for naming their children Mohammad (there's about half a dozen ways of spelling it). When I was in Pakistan, over half of our house staff was named Mohammad. Blasphemy!!


Which reminds me - do you remember when Pineapple Face, Manuel Noriega, was put in a Florida prison, he claimed to have found Jesus. Big deal - about half the inmates there were named Jesus. Makes it hard not to find him, doesn't it?
