News Analysis--Man Charged for Blasphemy

It's amazing to me that an American man is charged with blasphemy for going into a mosque during prayers and unplugging the speakers.  It is absolutely true.  In Jakarta, Indonesia a man was charged with blasphemy and sentenced to five months in jail for his crime.  Plus, the mob attacked this man (who himself was a Muslim) ransacked his house causing about $20,000 in damages.  See the article at the link below:

I just have to wonder, what if someone were to run into our church while we were praying and disabled our sound system.  Would they be held to the same accountability and punishment that this man was held to for going into a mosque.  I highly doubt it!  It seems that you can say or do anything you want about our God and our Faith, but the moment you offend a Muslim or their faith it is tantamount to "HIGH TREASON". 

It is ludicrous to me that they can blow up Americans and call for the annihilation of Israel on one hand, and feel justified in doing so.  But on the other hand say: DON'T INTERRUPT US WHILE WE PRAY!  In other words we can terrorize anyone we see fit even to the killing of thousands and expect no repercussions.  However, if you offend us in the slightest way we will hold you accountable to the fullest extend of the law.  The sad part is that our laws are designed to protect those who are ready and willing to harm us.
