I was in Indonesia (Bali) last November. It struck me as a very tolerant Muslim country, where Christians, Buddhists, Hindus and Muslims practice their religion openly without fear.

Banda Aceh is Unfortunately, a different province altogether and has its own laws.

In Việt Nam, at least, a public show of affection is illegal. It is not a Moslem country.

Notes to self:

1. Never cuddle in public in a Muslim country.
2. Never travel to a Muslim country.
3. Never expect a discussion about what's "tolerant and humane" to make sense in a Muslim country.
4. Don't go to Muslim countries.
5. Don't go to Muslim countries.
6. Don't get intimate in a grocery store in a Muslim country.
7. Find out what "intimate" means to Muslims before going to a Muslim country.
8. Don't go to Muslim countries.

They need a big tsunami. Maybe that’ll get their attention.

What you saw in Bali was not like most of Indonesia. Bali has their own form of Hinduism, and they are very peaceful, tolerant and friendly people. Mainland Indonesia is majority Muslim, and while certainly NOT tolerant, they are still pretty friendly compared to many Islamic countries. But Bali, that is a very special place.

In Austin, TX, they don’t lift a finger against sicko passengers who get jollied in the seats of Southwest Airlines. Bet the seat didn’t get cleaned for the next flight, either.

And never forget that these canings showed the world how “tolerant and humane” Sharia is.

Hmmm, till they are intolerant. I avoid any Islamic country as a destination.

As the English used to say, “Bloody hell!”

“People outside of Aceh who think Islamic sharia (law) is cruel can now see that it is actually very tolerant and humane,” said Banda Aceh deputy mayor Zainal Arifin.

Yeah, we can really, really see that, Mayor..................

I went to Morocco last year thinking it was a “moderate” Muslim country.

Almost all of the women were covered up with Burkas.

We had nuns like this.

They HAD a big Tsunami near Christmas in 2004 remember? And yes, Banda Aceh was THE Indonesian city that was hit hard. Tens of thousands died that day.
