Protesters chant slogans against President Pervez Musharraf's administration, demanding the arrest of thieves who stole a pair of shoes believed to have belonged to Islam's prophet, Mohammed, from a mosque, Saturday, Oct. 19, 2002 in Lahore, Pakistan. The sacred shoes were stolen in July from a 400-year-old mosque in the central city of Lahore, but no arrests have been made. (AP Photo/K.M. Chaudary)

"...Just wait - that islamic braintrust is gonna have a cow when they find out the sacred feather boa's also been pinched!..."

It's essential that the mooselim community pull together and guard Mo's body, 24/7

It cannot be discovered by infidels that he was buried wearing pink silk panties!

Most Jewish people prefer not to touch unclean objects such as this.

If THEY took 'em they used tongs...

I wonder if they had many protests of Pakistanis trying to get the goverment to be more active in seeking out Pearl's kidnappers/murderers. I guess they have to pick their battles.

Can anyone explain to me why Mohommed is worshipped so? The Jews don't praise Moses every day and say his name with parenthetical "sorry for saying your name but...".

The muslims reduced Jesus Christ to being just another prophet. So if Mohommed was just another man, why do they worship him? Seems to me that God was quite clear that this kind of thing was against His law.

And holding up his shoes? Was this at the Mecca Hard Rocks Mosque, filled with daily garments from celebrities?
