Passion of Christ pirated and seeling like hot cakes in ......... Jeddah!

Curiouser and curiouser, notwithstanding any comments yesterday on Muslim repsonses to the film this seems even more telling.Mostly the article focuses on copyright theft issues and enforcement in Saudi Arabia -where the article was written. However much more interesting to me is the unwritten story of why so many Muslims are interested in this story. Maybe it is just because it is a film from the west and it's being bought like any other, or maybe it's something of a sign of ... spiritual searching for more than Islam is offering?

No comments:

"Spend and tax" not "tax and spend"

 I got a response from my MP which got me kind of mad. You'll see why as I reproduce it here. Apologies for the strange changes in types...
