RELIGIOUS LEADER CALLING FOR PROTESTS OF ANTI-MUSLIM FILM



Why am I not surprised that there is a picture of a religious leader calling for renewed protests about the ridiculous trailer denigrating Muhammad that some Christian, claiming to be Jewish, circulated.

The leader of the Shia Muslim militant group, Hezbollah, has called for fresh protests in Lebanon on Monday over a film deemed offensive to Muslims.In an article written  A BBC article explains much of the thinking behind this action.
"In a speech broadcast on Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV station, Sheikh Nasrallah called for demonstrations on several days over the coming week."  To really understand a bit more,. read the whole article.  It may, among other points it tries to make, show just how far people on any job will go to retain their employment.I wonder, with people leaving institutions of religion in so many countries with increasing numbers whether the heads of these 'religious' businesses aren't' feeling as though they were bought out bu Bain Capital.

For too long, these people who think they speak for 'God', try to keep the rest of us as sheep in their flock. Shepherds are quickly finding themselves in a job for which there are neither takers nor patrons.  Isn't it enough that their buildings  (and homes) are tax free to them but not to the rest of us in lost tax income which we must make up, they want to scold and punish us for not being good enough to have blind faith in their lies.  None of them can convince me they know God's wishes (whichever God that might be) than they can tell us what Jesus would say in answer to any question.
