If this is the case, can someone enlighten me as to how writings of two
ordinary mortals can hurt / blaspheme Islam or the prophet in any
manner? I am specifically referring to the incident in which two
university students have been sentenced to death in Tehran for writing
some play that is perceived to be an insult to Islam.
If Islam is so great a religion, my understanding is writings of
ordinary mortals must not hurt it. A lot of garbage is written about
Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, Sikhism, etc. However, I am yet to
find some priest, rabbi, panda or guru pass a fatwa demanding the death
of anyone who said/wrote anything against their respective faiths.
Perhaps, Islam is not that great as it is made out. For if it was so
great, how can mortals such as Rushidie, Tasleema or two wayward Iranian
university students ever cause it any harm.

Dear Shaik,
The first step in improving yourself is realizing that words are words
and actions are actions.
Censorship is the surest way to keep any Society stagnant and ignorant.

It is even odder that the only publicly recorded urine-drinker viz, Morarji
Desai who lived till the age of 99, was awarded the highest civilian honour
of the Homeland of Muslims, Pakistan Nishan-e-Pakistan.
This proves two things.
If you drink your own urine a) You will live till the age of 99 and 2) you
will get the highest civilian honour from Pakistan

Your observation on the hold of religion on the people is flawed. If religion had such a hold as you have suggested, the social reformation of Hinduism that resulted in the discarding of such medieval practices as Sati, Castism, etc. would not have taken place. Logically the people who promoted such causes would have met the same fate as Rushidie. Neither would Hinduism tolerate the birth of other religions such as Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism all of which were born as a consequence of the degeneration of the Hindu society of the day. Neither would the social reformation that took place within Christianity, the break-up of the Catholic church, the condemnation of the Conquisition ever take place.
Perhaps, you must more appropriately state that Muslims are of a fanatic disposition (and it would not matter where they lived).
