Hate met Hate and both were consumed

God Haters Met Moslem Reaction.

.... the core values of the magazine, which seem to me to
be bigoted, intolerant and often puerile.The new cover, which depicts the Prophet Mohammed, deliberately sets out to stir things up further.Not many among the millions of people who have identified with Charlie Hebdo can be aware that its raison d'etre is a hatred of all religion. Stephane Charbonnier, the magazine's editor who was murdered last week, once asserted that his magazine was 'above all secular and atheist'.That was a very revealing thing to have said. His atheism, and that of his colleagues, was not the easy-going sort of non-belief so widespread in the modern West, which can happily co-exist with religious faith. No, it
was a militant, campaigning credo which wished to mock, attack, defile and excoriate religion in all its forms.


Whether the shooters or the victims, they all are before God's throne now, waiting for their sentences to be passed on them. Imagine the surprise of being there for the atheist, and the shock of them all, victims and perps, when they both discover they are bound to be cast into the same place together.
