author Mustafa Akyol |
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 6 ― Turkish author Mustafa Akyol’s book was banned by the Home Ministry as it was against so-called societal norms here, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said today.
The Home minister explained that after reviewing the book titled Islam Without Extremes: A Muslim Case for Liberty, it was prohibited as the facts in it were allegedly not suitable for Malaysians.
“The book we have banned from an international author as there were many facts in the book which were not suitable to the societal norms here,” Ahmad Zahid told reporters in a press conference after an event here.
The Umno MP also stressed that allowing the book to be sold here may lead to security concerns. He did not elaborate how and why.
Ahmad Zahid has a notoriety for tok-kok and shooting his mouth off before he engages his brain.
He has the silly nerve to say: “The book we have banned from an international author as there were many facts in the book which were not suitable to the societal norms here.”
It has been f**king silly of him to impute that Malaysia does NOT welcome religious FACTS in a book about Islam just because those FACTS would not be suitable for the Malay-Muslim minds.
The norm by most would be to welcome religious FACTS, except of course by church authorities - I mean 'church' in the generic sense, wakakaka.
I have to admit I am quite curious about what religious FACTS have been deemed by Zahid and his ulamak-wallahs to be not suitable.
However, I do know what he meant by 'the societal norms here'. He was obviously referring only to Malay-Muslims.
Drawing a logical conclusion from Zahid's stupid statement, we have to assume the government and its ulamak cronies do not like religious FACTS, which may collapse the religious house of cards.
Thus Muslim-led authorities could be said to be scared of losing believers and thus control of them.
an example of societal norms; alcohol is haram.
ReplyDeletesaid this before; the syllabus which is the root cause to all the problems must be changed.
Ahmad Zahid would have been better off if he had left the camel's dick in his mouth.What he meant to say is that Malays,whether educated or not,needs the politicians to do their thinking for them.Does it also meant that his children who are educated overseas are morons who cannot think for themselves too?
ReplyDeleteJamal Yunos and Zahid Hamidi are two birds of the same feather.These pair do not use their brains and instead used their heels to do the thinking.Stupid fools.
ReplyDeletefacts speak for itself, religion is a open ended question that allow for various response options.. they allow the individual providing the response to answer however he chooses
ReplyDeletein other words, you're saying religious beliefs are what we choose to believe in, regardless of facts?
Deleteis that not y u r a atheist?
DeleteSamax2 macam yr sifu's take of faith needs no logic.
DeleteWhen a description glaringly defying logic & been accepted openly, like religion, then it's indeed in the state of allow the individual providing the response to answer however he chooses!
To change the indoctrinated syllabus, disguised as societal norms & imbedded deep within the melayu psychic needs time & a charismatic leader.
ReplyDelete1) hard to find a charismatic leader amongst them at this juncture as most of the flock r too deeply addicted to tongkat & wahabis-lised zombism.
2) time for most of the lost Melayu is marching backward to the old feudalistic caliphate instead of the forward liberal future.
Thus, leadership ke, time ke, Iman Mahadi wouldn't be appealing to them anytime soon!
Sad indeed!!!
