panas tak kunjung dingin.
dibuat film tentang kristen, si pengikut2 kristus marah2 kalang
kabut...entah takut kebenaran terungkap, atau memang takut
kebenaran menjadi ternoda...
ada kartun nabi mohammad, kaum muslim sedunia jg
lelumpatan lempar batu dan molotov ke kedutaan2 negara
eropa.
belum ada yg mengolok2 dewa2 orang hindu nich, atau
mengejek2 sang budha gauthama...
kayak apa jadinya ya...
