Article:

A young blind boy has died after a teacher at his Islamic school in Pakistan hung him upside down and beat him for not learning the Koran, Agence France-Presse reported Friday.

Teacher Qari Ziauddin allegedly hung Muhammad Atif, 7, from a ceiling fan at Qari Latif Islamic school near Lahore, Pakistan, on Thursday.

Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has ordered an investigation into the boy’s death, AFP reported.

"The Prime Minister has expressed his deep sorrow and concern over the tragic death of Muhammad Atif, who reportedly died as a result of corporal punishment by his teacher,'' an official government statement said.

Pakistani police said Ziauddin has been arrested and charged in Atif’s murder. The police also report Ziauddin did not take the boy to the hospital after his condition deteriorated following the beating.

Local police official Akram Niazi told AFP an autopsy report confirmed that physical torture caused Atif’s death.

"Qari Ziauddin hanged Atif upside down with a ceiling fan in the school after beating him with sticks, which caused his death,'' Niazi told AFP

My take:

Islam is a mental disorder.

My take:

Islam is a mental disorder to those who take it so.


It's not like all Muslims would be like that. And Christians only have to look back a few centuries to dig up worse stuff. It is really not about the religion, it is about the people, and how they take the religion.

Damn tragic example this is

You state it is about the people and not the religion, but then state Christians only have to look back a few centuries to dig up worse stuff? 

If it was the people it would be happening to Christians far more often because there are more Christians in the parts of the world where this shit would make headlines.  Yet for some reason I haven't seen the stories about Christians stoning people to death and shit.

Are you suggesting that bad people only become Muslim and this is why Christians don't tend to do this stupid shit?

No I am not. I am just fed up with the attitude that all Muslims are evil. It is the fundamentalists, which are a minority.

I'm not saying it didn't happen, I'm not saying it doesn't happen.

I just find it funny how Fox News always tends to highlight stuff like this. I'm not saying it's a big deal, but you have to wonder why? It's even highlighted in blue on foxnews.com so it stands out.

It highlights stories that get the most hits and bumps them up on the page.

If this story is so uninteresting and un news worthy, then why are you here commenting on it?

Monty Python and his search for the Holy Grail had the best symbolism for this ever.



If you look past the amusement, it has a decent message.  Religion causes ALOT of pain, suffering, and war.  All symbolized by the holy hand grenade.  I happen to be catholic, but I still think its fucked up what people do to others because of their beliefs.

This isn't a case of the religion being fubar, but more of the mental state of that teacher.

Really? You seriously think that?

I'm here commenting on it because I find it hilarious how it's always Fox News who's reporting this shit and blowing it up to be a gigantic deal? Is it a tragedy? Of course it is. Fundamentalist religion blows. But they specifically make these stories stand out for...well, I'll let you figure out the rest.

They also insinuated Al Qaeda started the California wildfires too, so then again I didn't expect much less.



Don't mind Olbermann's mindless ranting.

Yeah, I have never seen CNN, ABC, or NBC report news either.  I fail to see your point, news is news and they all report the same shit.

If you seriously can't see how or why Fox News would highlight this story, there's no hope for you.

I think it is because we are at war in the Middle East with Islamic terrorists and give much money to Pakistan who is a shitty allie that harbors Muslim extremists and this kinda shows what kind of fuck nuttery goes on at the Islamo Extremist Schools located in Pakistan that have turned out some of the finest Durka Durka Jihadists.

I am pretty sure that other news groups will run it because people like to hear about the religion that has fucked up the world.

Really, Islam's fucked up the world? Oh, I can think of another religion that's ruined the world since it's inception.

Reading is GOOOOOD!

I couldn't find a video of the actual news feed of when Fox had that up, so that was the closest I could find.

I don't know about you, but I am alive right now and Islam is by far the leading cause of fuckedupedness in the world.

Don't mind it but here, listen to this. Ok.

Maybe not the best way to make a point about biased media, all I'm saying.

This story is getting wide coverage btw, so I don't really think it's a conspiracy by Fox.

You don't need to have been alive for more than 20 years to realize that Christianity's pretty fucked up.

The bottom line is that any religion that was created in ancient times, if practiced literally, will be violent.
