In banning Utusan Malaysia from a Menteri Besars functions, a Pas-led Kelantan government does small credit to itself, nor does it enhance a partys credentials as a leader of political as well as social reform.
The anathema was systematic for what a Menteri Besars press cabinet member described as an insult to Islam given of a animation in a paper resisting a syariah as well as physical law coercion response to an instance of rape.

That response, standard of most other identical responses worldwide, will usually leave most scratching their heads in wonder which there could be an insult to a religion merely given a remarkable minister or ulama has been criticised or viewed in reduction than adoring terms.
Utusans animation sets out in cold contrariety an increasingly important component of rapist proceedings, a use of modern recording equipment which can constraint a rapist action in progress.
Substitute a lady in a animation with a spoliation victim in a groundwork automobile park, for example. Would a security camera recording of a spoliation be acceptable if a pirate was caught as well as tried under syariah proceedings? Would which same recording be accepted as justification in a civil law court? Or how about a so-called CCTV recording of a male presumably resembling a heading politician carrying sex with a lady who is presumably a prostitute, presumably in a Kuala Lumpur apartment?
Questions such as these have been not counts of interest usually to clerics or lawyers, they have been impending to everyone.
Also impending to everybody in Malaysian society is how clerics as well as ulamas respond to criticism as well as irreverence.
Making fun of politicians, what they do, as well as what they say, is an typical past-time for most Malaysians. Are ulama as well as religious leaders beyond criticism? Are they so sa! intly wh ich they have risen above typical mortals to reside mid in between male as well as God, merely becaus! e they s tudy a word of God?
Religious ideology about a universe, a world, human society as well as human relations has been in conflict with physical views ever given science as well as mass renouned preparation opened humanitys eyes to a genuine wonder of Gods creations all around them.
The greeting by Kelantans politicians will usually harden a perspective which most who have been hold in tall courtesy for their godliness have been essentially no saints.
There have been most reasons to be taunting of Utusans most antics. This is not a single of them.
