The UK ambassador suggests that the convicted teacher my have been guilty of insensitivity to the local customs when she allowed the class to name the "Teddy bear" Muhammad. It is my contention that she only guilty of showing her sensitivity to that culture. A Teddy bear is not an animal at all but rather a FRIEND. It is your friend, it is your confidant. It is someone who listens to everything you say and does not judge you. It misses you when you are gone and is glad when you return.
It is the actions like those of this court that fuel the hatred of Islam and its judges.
Just two days ago, I heard a man call to his pet dog, Muhammad, it was a surprise in this part of the world, Kansas. I did not realize that it was intended to be an insult. I not would be suprised, IF, in this nation of pork eating people, that someone or ten someones named all of the swine on their ranch "Muhammad."
I would name my dog if I had one "Muhammad", not in honor of the prophet, but rather for you.
