Greek Goddess Statue Torn Down After Islamic Outcry

Bangladesh workers tore down a statue of the Greek Goddess Themis in the country’s Supreme Court complex to appease sharia law.

Muslims demanded that the statue of the goddess of justice be torn down by Friday, staying it “hurt the religious sentiments of Muslims.”

After mass protests during which protesters reportedly shouted “Douse the smouldering fire in the hearts of the Muslims or otherwise the fire will soon catch you,”

Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina agreed to remove the six-month-old statue. Workers subsequently got to work yesterday dismantling it.

Do we see any similarities here? A historic statue gets is erected and A-holes who are offended by it scream, cry, protest and threaten until the cucks in office give in and remove the statue in the dead of night as to be as quiet and discrete about it as possible hoping no one will notice. Just this month four confederate statues were removed in Louisiana in the same manner. Angry intolerant and ignorant groups find offense with historical art and demand they be torn down by throwing temper tantrums, and the weak government officials give them their way… and then they just move on to the next thing they find offensive and will not stop until they have banned and removed everything in the world that isn’t their own ideology.

The removal of the statue was seen as a victory for the Hefazat muslims, who have already stated their goal is to have all offending art removed from the entire country that represent humans and/or animals. They also demand all art classes in schools that allow students to draw people be banned.

The statue’s sculptor Mrinal Haque understandably saw the decision as a major loss. No doubt not just a loss to the art world, but to freedom in general. “This is an alarming signal for our country,” Haque said according to The New York Times, adding that it was a “defeat for the freedom-loving, secular people of the country. We all have to stand against this fundamentalist movement.”

 Chock this up to be just another example of why the Pagan community needs to smarten up and stop acting like Islam is an oppressed religion. Stop defending it, Stop pandering to it.
