Darragh's Comments
It's funny, because it's so true. I'm Irish myself, and that thing with the stamps, you see, there's a tax on 'regular' unrecyclable rubbish (to try to encourage recycling) whereby you must buy 'bin tags' (the stamps that the guy spoke about) and put them out with the bin, one per week, but you can recycle things for free. That is unless you wish to recycle in bulk. If recycling at a recycling centre you have to pay in bin tags, depending on the amount of stuff you wish to recylce, usually 3 or 4 bin tags should do the job, but they cost about €8 ($11.57) each, and as if that isn't enough, the government want to put another tax on 'composting' goods in your back garden, and yet another tax on 'regular' bins, €100 ($144.66) per year.
Other than that (and some other stupidly high prices) it is a really nice place to live, geographically speaking.

It looks really cool, I could see it becoming some kind of a crazy war machine. I wonder how much fuel it guzzles...
And guys, don't criticise, everyone on the 'net is calling him a redneck. The blogger didn't make it up.

I'm from Dublin and was in this, pictured, library before and it is really, really amazing. Bigger than I would have thought possible.

"I thought Islam forbade images of prophets"
As far as I know, they forbid images of Muhammad anyway,

Hence the fire/blur around his face & head.
And they do consider Jesus a prophet, if it was me, I'd never, ever, ever, EVER, make a film based on a religion apart from my own. If I made a film based on Muhammad's life, odds are I'd get a devout Muslim on my back trying out a jihad, but isn't it the same in all religions? There are bad people and good people the world around, not matter what your religion, that's what God wants us to realise. Christianity is not better than Islam, neither is Islam better than Christianity, nor any other religion.
Many Muslims come from poor backgrounds, and may not see how hyopcritical this is, and instead believe in the promise of the after life, using that to justify their actions. As Ghandi, stated, people use their religions to try to justify the anger and hate inside of themsleves, the exact opposite of what religions teach -love one another.
As for Jesus being gay - not true, the bible is actually against homosexuality (not that I neccessarily am) these ideas come and go by people too insecure to realise their truth and mature their faith. What happened to the last one about Jesus marrying and having children with Mary Magdelane?
Overall, I'm against a film created by a Muslim, depicting things which go against the Bible, as it is hypocritical.
"Treat others as you would like to be treated"
I'm sure he wouldn't like it if I went against the Q'ran.
