Shhh

Ahh, this made me laugh. I've never heard of a religious organization putting a gag order for being too outspoken, until today! Australian media clerics were told to STFU by the Lebanese Muslim Association, because they were making Muslims look bad. I'm not sure how much authority that association has to issue a gag order on another branch, but the article is toting the decision as if its going to have some positive effect.

Also, Australians were pretty angry when radical priests "caused uproar by likening unveiled women to uncovered meat" and "suggested that immodestly dressed women were to blame for sexual assault". Silly extremists.
