Stumbled upon this from a novelty site...

Koran Toilet Paper!

I did some searching and found that some guy in Germany got arrested for trying to market something similar to mosques...

Man to face charges for printing Koran on toilet paper

Associated Press
Feb. 10, 2006 07:10 AM

BERLIN - A German businessman who printed the name of the Koran on toilet paper and offered the rolls for sale to mosques and media will face trial for disturbing the peace.

The man, identified only as Manfred van H., is scheduled to go on trial Feb. 23 at a court in Luedinghausen in western Germany, Jochen Dyhr, a spokesman for judicial authorities in nearby Muenster, said Thursday.

The businessman last summer printed sheets of toilet paper with the sentence "Koran, the Holy Qur'aen" and sent them to about 15 mosques, television stations and magazines. In an accompanying letter, authorities say, he asserted that Islam's holy book is a "cookbook for terrorists" that calls for acts of violence.

He proposed that a "memorial to all victims of Islamic terror" be set up, financed by sales of the toilet paper - an offer that prosecutors say he also posted on the Internet.

The businessman's offer led to criminal complaints and telephone death threats against him.

Prosecutors argue that the man's actions overstepped the legally guaranteed freedom to criticize other religions. They say he has cited his right to freedom of opinion and artistic expression, and said his aim was to provoke rather than actually sell the toilet paper.

ok, first off i bow down to the user who posted this above image.

second... as far as the Koran TP goes- screw it. maybe if they kill enough people rioting over cartoons and TP, ( since they kill alot of their own people for some reason ) maybe we can just write it off as population control.

i think its sad the guy is getting into trouble for doing so... i think its the humor the world needed.

The real question is, is the West going to cave in to radical muslims, apoligize for the cartoons and agree never to hurt their feelings again. Most of the Euroweenies have already caved, most of the US media has also caved and quite a bit of the US political machine has caved. Let's just do what the Euroweenies did, pass a law making it illegal to hurt someone's feelings. Sheesh!

I'm remembering a thread from a few years back that had the link to request a free Koran from CAIR (or some other Islamic proselytizers).

... quite surprised that it didn't result in ten dead elbonians and a burnt out McDonald's.

The judge assisted by lay assessors found him guilty under a part of the German penal code that makes it punishable to "insult confessions, religious communities or groups promoting a special world view." The maximum penalty available was three years in jail.

Those guys don't use toilet paper, they use their left hand.
They eat and shake hands with their right hand.
That is part of the reason hacking off a hand for stealing is so bad.
They would have to eat and wipe with the same hand.

Pics you'd love to see:

An aisle full of this TP at your local grocer's with a large sign in front: "30% SOFTER THAN THE REAL KORAN".

Koran TP in the Laxatives aisle , right between the Metamucil and the Ex-Lax.

The topic is acceptable, the photo is acceptable (as it pertains to the news account) but the comments turn into religion bashing. And yes, I'd be locking the same thread if some posted they'd wipe their ass with a christian bible or advocate 30% softer than Gideon's Bible, etc.
