This guy went out of his way to break this statue. The residents of the area that liked the statue being there replaced it with a new one, which this guy came back to destroy again.

He seems a little upset and confused about religions that aren't Christianity.

I shouldn't be laughing at all at any of this, but the juxtaposition of these two stories are amusing:

The Taliban blowing up the largest Buddha statues in the world.

It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

Its amusing because its ironic. Islamophobes really aren't that much different from Islamists. I'm just glad this guy hasn't killed people (that we know of) tbh.

Wait until they discover Rastafarianism.
