It may seem surreal, but several Muslim bloggers have written letters to Jesus Christ in their blogs complaining about Western insults against Muslims, and particularly Dutch MP Geert Wilders' anti-Islamic film, Fitna. ....
Goldokhtar, a female religious student, starts her letter to Jesus by writing “Hello Mr. Jesus Christ”. She continues :
Do you know what I am thinking? When and where did all these these Fitnas start? A few years ago these anti-Islamic films began to be produced. Before the Islamic Revolution, nobody paid attention to Islam and its saintsÂ… After the Islamic Revolution other revolutions took offÂ… Then they did not know what to do, and they started doing childish things to hurt Islam's image in the world.
The blogger adds that several films such as Not without My Daughter and 300 should be countered with films by Muslims.
Mehdi writes:
Christ, I am a Muslim who likes you. Don't be sad about insults to your brother Muhammad, the Prophet. We all know these people are not your followers. They are not the ones who carry the cross, but launch crusades and kill people.
The blogger questions whether the growing number of cinematic attacks on Muslims are coordinated.
Pangare writes to Jesus:
Help us to resist these insultsÂ… I know you support us and you can read my heart. |
