Your "translation" is inaccurate.

This has nothing to do with skin colour.

Islam is not a race (or a skin colour): it's a religion. There are many white Muslims in the world.

Your ignorance on this matter is quite alarming.

Whoooa I nevah new dat.

I guesss if you' really are new, you should know that's well known by everyone. In fact, over 5000 of my posts have been saying 'yes I know that islam is a religion and nota raaaace.....'

They are a protected minority though. Other protected minorities include homosexuals and non-whites. I guess that about covers it.

What p1sses me off is if you make a statement you stick by it. You don't become all sorry and wimpish because some people complain or are offended by it.

What I resent is the Hogg putting it down to Aussie humour.....This has nothing to do with being an Aussie!!!

It's a long way across the Nullabor to WA. Aussie humour will reach there 2098.

FYI Aussie humour is taking the p1ss.

Which is really only funny if both sides are in on the joke.

No.
It mightn't be "nice" but it's still just as funny either way. besides, whos' he gonna ask? hello allah, do you mind if i tweet a joke about you? Pffft.

The fact this gets a reaction at all shows the lack of testicular fortitude amongst certain segements of the community.

For crying out loud, he tweeted a joke and now we're talking about "national sense of humour" and disavowing ourselves of it. I don't find a lot of comedians funny at all...tim minchin immediate;ly springs to mind. he's a dick, he s not funny, he talks poo about jesus is the same way this hoggy did about allah. But some people apparrently find him funny, so who cares what I think? Who am I to dictate what thou shalt and shant laugh about?

It is a Muslim's job to behead those who insult Islam. Ask Yadda for the picture.

"Just put out my aussie flag for Australia Day but I wasn't sure if it would offend Muslims...So I wrote "Allah is a sh!t" on it to make sure," Hogg tweeted at midday today.

I fail to see the humour to be honest!!!

One can't see what doesn't exist.

It's bogan bigotry designed to offend; nothing more.

Oh FFS. What about Irish jokes, Polish jokes, blonde jokes, short people jokes, fat people jokes, dingo jokes, catholic jokes............................................

They don't blow up buildings or assasinate cartoonists. That tends to take the humour out of the situation. Which makes it imperative to reinsert it.

I thought it was funny.

I thought it was insulting to Muslims and was better not said at all.....It says more about the people who see no problem with this insult than the people it was meant to offend!!!

If there were no God, there would be no Atheists.
G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936)

What is your intention with that quote? To insult the intelligence of atheists? It's not even funny.

Oh the irony......It is not funny to insult the intelligence of atheists!!!

An atheist is a man who has no invisible means of support.

Do you have something against minority groups?

That's a very broad statement isn't it? Sort of like saying "do you have something against atoms?"

It's just an observation on the social etiquette of today. Some groups you can talk about, some you can't. Make of it what you will.

The answer is simple it was humans who created the concept of God!

God is not Created He is eternal.

Do you believe in physics the study of the laws of the universe? If you believe in physics, I would ask you how such laws can exist without a lawmaker?

Albert Einstein:

"every one who is seriously engaged in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that the laws of nature manifest the existence of a spirit vastly superior to that of men, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble. The pursuit of science leads therefore to a religious feeling of a special kind, which differs essentially from the religiosity of more naive people."

"I want to know how God created this world. I'm not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts, the rest are details."

Quoting Jews now???

Why? Is that againt the rules?

Well, since you want to kill 'em all, it might be.

You know, no peace until the tree gives up the jew hiding behind it and all that Koranic baloney.

I must admit I dint see it funny..but I wouldnt have seen it anyway had it not been published on here..great way to advertise a moron.
