Geeze! Quote the Quaran and go to jail? It’s “blasphemy”

 blasphemy-laws Blasphemy. Ah, what’s that?  Quote the Quaran and go to jail?   It may be 5 years  jail time for   Christian politician Ahok in  Indonesia,  which is 90% Muslim.

 If sharia law becomes acceptable in the USA — could USA citizens be charged with blasphemy?     Geeze!

What did Ahok  do?  Ahok, a Christian,  quoted the Quaran in public.  That’d  be OK if  he was Muslim — but he is a Christian. All non-believers are “kafirs”  includiig Ahok. Everyone except Muslims are un-believers.

Recently,  Ahok was on the cover of Forbes in Indonesia.  He could be in for trouble big time.   ahok-on-forbes

So what’s “blasphemy’? For Islamics in Indonesia,   “blasphemy”  is   profane talk.  Irreverence.   Which includes  the actions of a  nonbeliever or “kafir”   quoting the Quaran.

In Indonesia, the maximum punishment for ‘blasphemy’ is five years imprisonment.
