Ok, these people are stupid. But, how will you guys feel when others ridicule the excitement you get from a petrified piece of a bone? We are all bigots somehow…

If it had been an image of Mohammed, what would be the correct thing to do?1)kill yourself;
2)kill the cook;
3)kill everyone;
or
4)kill the pig — oops, already dead.

@Codswallop: “Tonight on the Food Channel–The Archbishop of Canterbury battles The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem for culinary glory and religious supremacy. Alton brown and the Dalai Lama will provide the gustatory genuflections!”

You mean Toasted Cheese Jesus vs Moldy Meat Allah

That is clearly an image of a fish! Perhaps it’s a sign to eat fish instead of meat? Maybe it’s a reference to a Darwin fish! Perhaps it’s a sign that evolution is the only true explanation for the origin of species!

I just found this reference to myths in an article from the washington post about myths and the Federal Reserve. I think it’s really appropriate to this post, even though it’s about money,,,

Why am I bothering you with this stuff in midsummer, a time when I’d rather be off drinking something cold than trying to deal with the Fed?

Because myths get in the way of understanding.
And if there were ever a time when understanding the Fed’s powers — and limitations — matters, that time is now.

How about if the Christians and Muslims fight it out in a reality show?

“Tonight on the Food Channel–The Archbishop of Canterbury battles The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem for culinary glory and religious supremacy. Alton brown and the Dalai Lama will provide the gustatory genuflections!”

I’d watch it.

Gee, I wonder how many times they threw away a PICTURE of Mohammed, because as we’ve been told(by Muslims) pictures of a living(or dead) being are blasphemous.

Maybe Muslims are more left hemisphere oriented than Christians???

Its Venus rising fromthe sea on a clam shell–but since the Greek Gods were never silly enough to communicate with humanity in this way, I wouldn’t worry about it.

Mammoth molar was the first thing that came to my mind too. The second was George Carlin’s “Fussy Eater” piece…
“Did you make this?
Was there a picture in the cook book?
I bet it didn’t look like this?”
We miss you George.

So it is ok to have a piece of gristle with Allah written on it but name a teddy bear Mohammed and you get 40 lashes.

Meat your maker

And with that, Phil removes any possibility of claiming this blog is “family friendly”.

Don’t do that. I laughed so hard my food almost came out of my mouth, and I wasn’t eating anything at the time.

Looks more like a mastodon molar to me.

That was the first thing I thought too (okay, I thought “mammoth molar” but I’m not picky).

Oh man, that’s a piece of meat? Before I read the article I thought it was suppose to be a fossil or a rock.

It seems that any vague four-pointed squiggle looks like "Allah" in Arabic. It's been seen on Nike tennis shoes, Burger King ice cream cones, waves of the 2006 tsunami, and FSM knows where else.

I was eating spaghetti last night, and as I paused to take a sip of water, I noticed a shocking resemblance:

It’s a sign showing that Pastafarianism is the only true relgion for humanity.

My favourite detail is the conclusion that it validates one religion, when the name “Allah” is used (in arabic-speaking and -writing countries) for the deities of at least two.

I like my religious visions to come in the form of grilled cheese only.
