Imagine getting your knickers in a twist over bullshit like this. Don’t people have anything better to do?

The name of the charge is pretty telling. I was a child the last time I was went to timeout for hurting someone’s feelings, but apparently you can be convicted for “wounding the religious feelings of others” in Malaysia.

It always annoys me how religious feelings are somehow seen as privileged. What about my atheist feelings?
