NEWS ASIA-PACIFIC: Malaysia issues fatwa on ghosts
Genies are also a target of the decree [AP]
A Malaysian museum has closed an exhibition on supernatural beings after Islamic religious authorities issued a fatwa, or decree, against it, state media have reported.
The National Fatwa Council had ruled on Thursday that exhibitions on ghosts, ghouls and supernatural beings were forbidden, as they could undermine the faith of Muslims.Abdul Shukor Husin, the council's chair, was quoted as saying that "supernatural beings are beyond the comprehension of the human mind." "We don't want to expose Muslims to supernatural and superstitious beliefs," the Berita Harian newspaper quoted him as saying.

Mythical attractions

Thousands of visitors had attended musuem in the western state of Negri Sembilan since it launched the ghost and genie exhibition on March 10, due to run until May 31.

Its curator had previously resisted calls from Malaysia's arts minister and a religious leader for it to be shut down amid criticism that encouraging a belief in ghosts was un-Islamic.

But Kamaruddin Siaraf, Negeri Sembilan's state secretary and chair of the state museum board, said the exhibition was terminated after the National Fatwa Council ruled against such events.

What really bothers me is the coincedence of words and phrases used on this forum and on televison. As in:
"UnIslamic"--UnChristian

"We don't want to expose Muslims to supernatural and superstitious beliefs,"-- We don't want to expose our children to supernatural and superstitious beliefs,"

"They could undermine the faith of Muslims."--Atheists or Pagans could undermine the faith of Christians.

It's what you might call a theocracy script

Answer 1

Wait - is your question should Christians in the US (or elsewhere) have the same authority as Islam does in Malaysia?

That's an easy one: HECK NO!!!!!!!!!

I would not choose to live in a society where ones code of law was dictated by any religion.

In the US 'freedom of religion' means just that - I'm not hurting anyone with my beliefs and it doesn't make me less of a human being because I don't agree with the theology of the majority. The US is not, as right wing fundamentalists like to believe, Christian-ruled, Christian-run, or Christian-founded.
