In Denmark, there has been some controversy because of the muslim immigration. Some of these muslims have joined a political party here, The Radical Left, and this has stirred up some debate, because the Quran mentions capital punishment. The Danish minister of church, Johannes Lebech, has made some statements on the matter. It is noteworthy that the mentioned muslims have publicly claimed that they are not in support of death penalty.

In the Politiken (a big newspaper) of May 24, 2001, the following reader's letter (by Eigil Møller, a professor at the University of Copenhagen, I think) was printed (translated from Danish):

"Something has to be done. Johannes Lebech said to Politiken on May 21st about the muslims "problem with death penalty, because death penalty is mentioned in the Quran." That's a horrifying revelation! Do these viewpoints really florish in the midst of The Radical Left? Death Penalty? The Radical? Roused by the minister of church's zealous research, I decided to follow up on the case. And it can now sensationally be disclosed, that the minister of church, and even the minister of education themselves are active in a shady, religous organization with everything but humanistic goals.

I succeded in tracking a page on the Internet - yes, think, a homepage! - filled with the most repulsive attitudes, that are also held by this organization. One can read, among other things, the following: "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. And it should be punished with death." But not alone is death penalty propagandaized and homophobia promoted.
No, there is talk of the most shameful, medieval suppresion of women, hear now: "if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in church." The two quotes are but samplers. There are huge amounts of these horrible points of view on the homepage. Find more examples on www.thebible.com.

The chocking by these new discoveries is, that the two mentioned ministers are supposedly member of a cultic society (a so-called "People's Church"), that worship this text as the holiest. The truth must be know: Do you admit this membership?
And are such attitudes unitable with a membership of The Radical Left?
The public must demand an unambiguous distancing from the mentioned organization and the anti-human theories it builds on, by these two. And where is the media in this part of the case?"

(Features a drawing of the minister of church saying "No no, we don't need a fundamentalist like you in The Radical Left" to Moses with the ten commandments.)

Take that, you silly hypocrite christians =)
