Is this an example for 'muslim' humor?

What I have learned from being in Libya is that the people here are warmer and more open than any other I have encountered in the Arab/Muslim world, but they are still completely unshakeable in their faith, and it's obvious that Islam is part of life from the day they are born, almost as natural as breathing to them. The guy who sits in my office has just become a father, and he told me he is whispering words from the Koran into his child's ears.

I see it much the same as a comedian I heard talking about religion the other day: a child is as much a Muslim/Christian/Jew as he is a member of the Transport and General Workers' Union. But I wouldn't dare say that out loud!

It's not in this article, but apparently the 'diplomat' had told the air marshals that he'll set his shoes on fire......

My other half is muslim and he found this funny when I asked him what was appropriate and what was not he said that anything that would make a joke of Allah or any of the prophets would be classed as an insult. A joke that related to culture, clothing etc is perfectly normal

Now this Qatari chap had a sense of humour, but the Americans didn't find it funny...

Not funny at all , any sensible person knows not to joke about bombs on an airplane. Now add to this that the guy was in the bathroom for longer than normal and smoke was smelt coming from there. It is too bad he has diplomatic immunity, cuz I would love to see his cocky arse thrown in jail for awhile.

Well I had the cleaner in the other day, nice lass, until she was done and started yappng on about jesus and 'would you like me to help you hear the gospel of our lord and saviour jesus christ?'.

I was polite at first, but after 15 minutes opened the door and went 'aye you did a great job, cheers, bye!'.

****** hell.

There is a new british film called The Infidel which is quite timely considering this topic and looks completely hilarious...
