Have you ever met Satan?

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 06:50 PM PST

Hence, in short, Satan was a later-day belief of deviationist teachings that early practitioners of the Abrahamic faith rejected as nonsense. And now KTemoc Konsiders may be sent to jail for posting a photograph of an opera singer dressed as a Viking, which some people say is actually a photograph of a fallen angel called Satan, which the original Abrahamic faith says is utter nonsense and does not exist.

NO HOLDS BARRED

Did you read yesterday's Bernama news report below? It seems KTemoc Konsiders is guilty of insulting Islam and of posting a photograph of a woman symbolising Satan.

At first I thought it was a picture of an opera singer dressed up as a Viking and singing her heart out. It appears I was wrong. It is a picture of Satan after all.

I confess that I will have to take the word of this Amir Amsaa Alla Pitchay because I have never personally met Satan (I think no one on earth has ever met Satan as well) -- so I do not know what he or she looks like. According to Amir Amsaa Alla Pitchay, though, this is what Satan looks like.

To be honest, I have been influenced too much by western 'leanings' and I had always held to the idea that Satan looks like this:

Or maybe like this: 

But then this is all western propaganda meant to mislead Muslims. Satan does not look like that at all. Satan looks like the photograph in the piece by KTemoc Konsiders.

Actually, the original Hebrew term, Satan, is a noun from a verb meaning primarily 'to obstruct' or 'to oppose' -- as it is found in Numbers 22:22, 1 Samuel 29:4, and Psalms 109:6.

In the Book of Job, Satan is a member of the Divine Council, the sons of God, who are subservient to God. In the Septuagint, the Hebrew Satan in Job and Zechariah is translated into the Greek word diabolos (meaning slanderer), the same word in the Greek New Testament from which the English word devil is derived.

In Judaism, Satan is a term used since its earliest biblical contexts to refer to a human opponent. Satan is rarely mentioned in Tannaitic literature but is found in Babylonian aggadah.

In Medieval Judaism, the Rabbis rejected these Enochic literary works of the Biblical canon, making every attempt to root them out. Traditionalists and philosophers in Medieval Judaism adhered to rational theology by rejecting any belief in rebel or fallen angels, and viewing evil as abstract.

Hence, in short, Satan was a later-day belief of deviationist teachings that early practitioners of the Abrahamic faith rejected as nonsense. And now KTemoc Konsiders may be sent to jail for posting a photograph of an opera singer dressed as a Viking, which some people say is actually a photograph of a fallen angel called Satan, which the original Abrahamic faith says is utter nonsense and does not exist.

Isn't Malaysia an interesting country to live in? It turns people into idiots.

*****************************************

(Bernama) - A non-governmental organisation, Ikatan Rakyat Insan Muslim Malaysia (IRIMM), today lodged a police report against a blogger for allegedly making a mockery of the word Allah.

IRIMM president, Amir Amsaa Alla Pitchay, said the blogger had on Nov 17 posted an article, with the title 'Can Sing But Cannot Read Allah In Selangor'.

He said the article also contained a picture of a woman clad in an attire that symbolises a satan and holding a cane while saying "AAAAAaaaLLL".

"The action hurts the feelings of Muslims in the country. Such a picture should not have been posted," he said when met by reporters after lodging the report at the Dang Wangi police station.

He said the Home Ministry should issue guidelines to the media and bloggers on publication of articles which touched on the sensitivity of Muslims in the country.

IRIMM also lodged a report against MCA Youth leader Wee Ka Siong over a statement issued by the latter on Nov 15 in response to an order by Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah of Selangor over the use of the word 'Allah'.

Police report in Penang

Meanwhile, another NGO known as Persatuan Mukabuku Pulau Pinang today lodged a police report against a Facebook account holder for allegedly insulting the Malay rulers.

The association chairperson, Salleh Ismail, claimed that the comments by the Facebook account holder, who used the name 'Kumaran Muthiah', on the Seven Wills of the Malay Rulers were rude and could threaten the peace and harmony in the country.

He told reporters after lodging the report at the Lebuh Pantai police station in George Town today that such an action could also create a rift among the various races in the country.

Malaysian citizens should realise that the Seven Wills of the Malay Rulers were the foundation for peace and prosperity, he added.
