They are saying 'undetermined'. How is that blowing it?

This site has been a great tool in proving most of the rats following the Pied Piper's tune wrong - so I tend to give it a break.

Liberal? I haven't noticed a big lean, but who knows...

Eh, for whatever reason, in terms of forwarded e-mail political urban legend stuff (and this one is LIKE a lot of that even though it's a web page; I'm sure it will BECOME an e-mail one) it seems there has been slightly more stuff that from the right of center than left of center that has turned out to be false or unconfirmable.

And that really upsets people. Snopes shot down the infinite number of "guy beats up celebrating Arab" ULs right after 9/11 which I think POed people.

Anyway, I fully expect Allah vs. Jesus to be posted on Free Republic about 200 times over the next few months.

Good to see Snopes on the ball.

Snopes, 1) Bothered to try to check with the author

2) Sought out other people who may have been at the alleged incident

That's more than any of the people stroking themselves with glee over the Allah vs. Jesus story who simply assumed it was true can say.

And the idea that the incident would play out in the story is just laughable. If anything it would end in some sort of heated exchange instead of an Imam "hanging his head in shame." What a crock.
