Malaysian newspaper insults our Lord Jesus Christ

A Malaysian newspaper is facing calls to shut down after it published an image of Jesus holding a cigarette and what appeared to be a can of beer.

Malaysia's Muslim-led government closed two publications last year for carrying controversial cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.

Now some members of Malaysia's minority religions say they want the same treatment over this latest incident.

Religion is a famously sensitive subject in Malaysia.

So when Tamil-language newspaper, Makkal Osai, published a picture on its front page apparently showing Jesus smoking and drinking it was bound to cause offence.

Christian groups said that although the Jesus of the Bible was a compassionate figure - who turned water into wine, shared a flagon with his disciples at the Last Supper and mixed with tax collectors and prostitutes - action should still be taken.

The paper has since issued an apology, explaining that a graphics editor had mistakenly taken the image from the internet. Most of Malaysia's churches appear to have been appeased.

Not so though the Malaysian Indian Congress, an ethnic Tamil political party in the governing coalition, most of whose members are Hindu.

A senior party official has demanded that Makkal Osai's editor be sacked and the paper closed.

Interestingly, Makkal Osai has been very critical of the Malaysian Indian Congress, which owns a rival Tamil-language newspaper.

Non-Muslims are also waiting to see how the government responds, given that it took tough action over the publication of the Prophet Muhammad cartoons.

Similar was also happened here in Europe this year, but it was Alah was insulted as sketched from a  Danish cartoonist. The man was totally in trouble after that issuance of his arts in the newspapers.  The media reported it for almost a week, the Muslims folks want to have his head.

 You know what? - debates about religion is present in every media, this is one of the outsource results since the Nov.11 tragedy in New York, Madrid train bombings, and in the subway in London and some more other terrorist activities where innocent people lost their lives.

Normally that's true :"RESPECT" is really what the whole mankind and the World is needed.  But human are inborn egoist.

I am not  reading the Holy Bible but as what heard from narration or prophecy that the last or 3rd World War is that so-callled Holy War - (Religion)
