The Life of Muhammad Film is an Extremely Offensive Idea

After the Danish cartoons and the news paper story, now we are about something different, the media will never stop and those people will never end this war against Islam and Muslims, there is a movie about Prophet Mohamed and his wives, “The Life of Muhammad” will be released on the 20th of April –I hope not- says the Former Dutch Labour Party politician Ehsan Jami, the founder of the Committee of ex-Muslimbut who has been been forced into hiding himself after a series of death threats. Who can stop it this man?

The film will show a sexually aroused Prophet Muhammad with his nine years old wife Aisha, for sure it will describe prophet Mohammed as a horrible man which is not true, I want to ask what is the true value of producing such  a film? I can not find anything useful but being totally unacceptable and extremely offensive.

Why people can not understand that this shouldn’t be a material to play with, it’s not a game, this is something to respect.

   Human beings are a playful and curious species. We should be able to play with everything. Nothing should be that holy that we cannot joke about it. Sometimes I’m also offended when people joke about aspects of my religion, or when they mock it or treat it as something unimportant… but that’s their problem, not mine. They cannot truly offend me, for their mockery only shows their own ignorance and barbarianism.

   Anyway, why should Ehsan Jami be stopped? There are tons of Middle Eastern propaganda films which are offensive to me, that’s why I don’t watch them.

   As for Ehsan Jami… I’m not sure if the above is still correct. I believe originally the above was his idea, but he decided that it was a bit ‘too much’ and he decided to make a video in which he interviews Muhammad. It’s already online and it’s in English. It’s quite provocative, but I hope it will not be too offending (besides the fact that it’s depicting Muhammad).

   He’s basically arguing that Islam needs to be modernized, just like Christianity was modernized in the last few centuries. I believe the film can increase compassion for Muslims within non-Muslims.

   Anyway, if you’re interested, just try to Google for the film and you can find it.
