Once again, peacemaker, I do not know what you are talking about!

Are these the questions you are referring to?

"And how many such writers have been awarded such a prestigious award at public and official level? Can you name one to me? "

If so, please be informed that I have not raised the issue of the writers you are talking about.  Which writers were those?

Also I did not say this:-

Doo-bop: "What about all slanderous books and writings and documentaries about Jesus and Christianity ?"

which you are clearly implying that I said....

I don't know what your game is here.  But it is not nice.....

Actually, if you care to reread page three of this thread, you will discover you should be raising this issue with Delta, not with me....the bit about the "slanderous books and writings" came from him, not me.  Now stop wasting my time....

Oh yes, it was from Delta, I am sorry for that�even a slight misrepresentation may upset one�nevertheless, let me assure you that I did that inadvertently.

And don�t you agree with what Delta says in this thread?

As I see from your posts, you support the official recognition awarded to Salman Rushdie; my question is now directed to both of you. And if you don�t like to answer the post related to Delta, I refer to one I asked in my post on page 3 before Delta's post.

"Can they insult, for example, any other community at such a public and official level? Will they honour Salman, or another author of similar talents, in the same manner if the insult was directed to a community and faith other than Muslims and Islam? I don�t wish that any community is insulted and humiliated in such a manner, but the point is to show the blatant hypocrisy that prevails here. . . ."

Peace

Hey Doo bop. Thanks for letting me know. I know they have some in Canada as well.

Let me ask,  does that have anything to do with the greater society? It is like in the US, the Amish have their own system of justice. Also, they are exempt from the draft (if there is one).

It is also like Orthodox Jewish folks have their own system of justice. Native Americans in the US as well. How is Shirah court any different if people willingly choose to go to that court? Most of Shirah is sort of like divorce court, property, etc. Deals with many type of matters. Are there are lot of whippings or stonings there? I would think if there were it would be all over the news.
