"Egypt's leading comic actor Adel Imam has received a three-month jail sentence for insulting Islam in films and plays, court documents have shown.
He was accused of frequently mocking authorities and politicians in his films, and of offending Islam and its symbols, including beards."(my italics)

This one just breaks me up:
"When I was in the desert," said Nasruddin one day, "I caused an entire tribe of horrible and bloodthirsty bedouins to run."
"However did you do it?" asked a person.
"Easy. I just ran, and they ran after me."

I swear I'm an atheist not because I don't believe in God but because I don't believe the people who do.

"Islam and humour" one of the shortest books ever written....like "Great English Lovers" or "What to do in Torquay"
A process which led from the amoeba to man appeared to the philosophers to be obviously a progress though whether the amoeba would agree with this opinion is not known.
