1984 iPod ad

Has Mr. Jobs had this idea for, like, 20 years!?
Just look at this picture from the famous 1984 ad and tell me that thing is something else.

Edit: It IS an iPod. But the pic is from the (in 2004) remastered 1984 ad, in which Apple thought it be fun to add it. Here is the original, non-remastered version:

What does "peace" mean?

Religion of peace

You've all heard it. The mantra. "Islam is a religion of peace". I am not going to tell you that is untrue. But I invite you to consider this little line of thought:

Chrristianity is generally also considered a "religion of peace". Christianity has roughly 2 billion followers. Islam has roughly 1 billion followers.

Now.
1) How many people are killed per year by the peace of Christ?
2) How many are killed by the sword of Islam every year?
3) If you are one of those interesting people who somehow managed to answer question 1 with an even remotely close figure to that of question 2, I invite you to consider how many of the "Christian" murderers shouted "Allahu Akbar" or some christianized variation thereof.
4) How many Christian suicide bombers have you ever heard of?
5) How many Muslim suicide bombers have you heard of?
6) How much do religious murderers of different creeds generally care about civilian casualties (regardless of wether you count western modern warfare of sucular states as "Christian" or not)? Compare Islam to the other "peaceful religions".
7) Do an google image search for "anti-islam cartoons", "anti-islamic cartoons", "anti-islamist cartoons" and "anti-muslim cartoons", and compare the results with the result when you search for "anti-semitic cartoons", then tell me what countries should be boycotted.
8) Take a look at the "face of muhammed" pictures from Jyllands-posten (posted below in my latest blog entry) then explain by what reasoning they justify the burning of several danish embassies.


Now tell me: what does "peace" in the phrase "Islam is a religion of peace" mean?

My answer: Islam is not a peaceful religion - just look at its very bloody history, starting already in the Qu'ran - it has always spread by the sword - or, to borrow the words of Jesus - *lived* by the sword...

I have nothing to add

Fact about Islam: "There is no Islamic Patrick, no Islamic Boniface, no Islamic Cyril and Methodius, no Islamic Damien of Molokai, no Islamic Jean de Brebeuf, no Islamic Matteo Ricci, no Islamic Teresa of Calcutta"

Denmark

Islamists around the world are encouraging the world to boycott Denmark. Why? Because a newspaper has depicted their 'prophet' Muhammed (which itself is a crime... in Islamic countries) as beeing a violent and destructive moron (which... is true). Regardless of what one thinks of claiming (the truth that) that religious figure is wrong and a danger to modern society - there still is something called "free speech". It is obviously ok in Islamist countries to portray Jews (unlike Muhammed, Jews are an entire people and a race, not a person) as the source of all evil and the offspring of pigs, So freedom of speech obviously applies only to Muslims or friends of Islam. And yet, they dare accuse the West of double standards...

Centurion: Now write it down a hundred times. Brian: Yes sir, thank you sir, hail Caesar, sir. Centurion: (salutes) Hail Caesar. If it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off. Brian: (very reliefed) Oh thank you sir, thank you sir, hail Caesar and everything, sir!
