Objecting to Blasphemy is now relegated to “far-right Catholics”....
As if any Christian would approve?

I doubt seriously if this same website has ever described the mohammedan protests — much less their actual abundant crimes such as full our riots lit up by burning cars, rapes, and “honor” killings — with such breathless anxiety. Oh, the horror of Christians offended by the disgusting display of blasphemy.

Is this alleged playwright yet working on a play that ridicules mohamhead?

The work in question, Italian Romeo Castellucci’s “On the Concept of the Face, Regarding the Son of God”, is about an incontinent man being cared for by his son, and has been showing at the Theatre de la Ville (near the Notre Dame Cathedral).

That's entertainment? Sheesh.

“....protest against a play featuring the face of Christ allegedly covered with fake excrement.”

“Far right” = the shred of sanity left in downwardly spiraling Western Civilization.

Demarcation is in play the seperation of the wheat from the tares.

Just look at Occupy Wall street, flash mobs, home invasion,
and more to come....

but we all need to watch out for those churches /sar
