Not all opportunities are obvious. In fact, in may be correct to say they rarely are. Often they arrive under the guise of bad news. The trick is not to succumb to gloom when difficult events strike. It is imperative to stay motivated, passionate and determined. If you think now that no opportunity exists, think again. The trouble you are currently dealing with is your ticket to success.
The creators of South Park have, once again, sparked anger from Muslims after the show once again depicted the Prophet Muhammad. Depictions of the prophet and Allah are forbidden in Islam.
The website Revolutionmuslim.com, which CNN says spreads radical Muslim propaganda, slammed the show's creators after they depicted the Prophet in a bear costume on South Park's 200th episode.
On Sunday, Revolutionmuslim.com posted an entry that included a warning to South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone that they risk violent retribution – after the 200th episode last week included a satirical discussion about whether an image of the prophet could be shown. In the end, he is portrayed disguised in a bear suit.
The posting on Revolutionmuslim.com says: “We have to warn Matt and Trey that what they are doing is stupid and they will probably wind up like Theo Van Gogh for airing this show. This is not a threat, but a warning of the reality of what will likely happen to them.”
Van Gogh, was a Dutch politician a Dutch filmmaker who was assassinated for making an anti-Islamic film.
The author of the blog post said that he wasn't threatening Parker and Stone but merely saying that provoking Muslims could incite violence.
"It's not a threat, but it really is a likely outcome," al Amrikee said, referring to the possibility that Parker and Stone could be murdered for mocking Muhammad. "They're going to be basically on a list in the back of the minds of a large number of Muslims. It's just the reality."
This isn't the first time that South Park has depicted Muhammad, the Muslim Prophet has been featured on the show before. In the 2001 episode, "Super Best Friends," Muhammad appears alongside Buddha, Jesus, Krishna and other religious figures to magician David Blaine [ed. note: yeah, we can't top that]. Two 2006 South Park episodes, "Cartoon Wars Part One & Two" also touched on the controversial Danish cartoon which depicted Muhammad.
And now for something completely different...
For many years Jehovah's Witnesses recognized that it was the Creator's promise to bring a new world before the generation of 1914 passed away. Because of the firm grasp from the Watchtower Society, Jehovah's Witnesses cannot see that God Himself would never allow this to be the understanding then entirely change it to something else. This is not progressive understanding from God, it is a deliberate alteration of doctrine created by the Watchtower Society to keep members and their financial contributions. Although most Jehovah's Witnesses went along with this doctrinal change, thousands left knowing that the Watchtower Society (like all other religious cults) claim to be God's chosen organization when they are not. What urgent Armageddon doctrine will the Society come up with next to keep loyal followers and their financial contributions?
So, let's clear this up.
- Through Charles Taze Russell's doctrinal ping-pong, Armageddon was supposed to
occur in the year 1874, later changing the date to 1914. - When 1914 came and went, Russell referred to 1914 as the "beginning of the time
of trouble", and Christ's return was now considered invisible. - After Russell's death, the Watchtower Society ran with this date, using the major
historical events that had taken place in this year as proof that Russell was correct
in his calculations. - The Society referred to this "generation" (Matt.24:34) as those who were teenagers
living in 1914 and that they would not pass away before the end comes. - Then the Society added to this "generation" by incorporating all those who were
born in 1914; no longer limiting this generation to those who were old enough to
understand it. - Then, the Society changed it to all those who at least understand that Jesus came
invisibly in 1914. - Next, the Society will never refer to this generation ever again.
