Actually, the state of the Islamic world, which I don't understand being that it is the "religion of peace" and all.

What a shame! Mohamed is probably rolling in his grave.
I had my DVR all set for it too

Chalk another one up for religious fanatics! I can't help but wonder how God feels knowing how many wars have been started and insane acts have been carried out in His name?

Let's not get too hasty - not all Islamic people are fanatics. This sect is the one that's giving the rest of them a bad name.

Still, it sucks that the race isn't going to continue. I wonder if we'll see anything like Running Man in the future...? Ahhhhhhnoooold!

Good point, the Jews and Christians (and all other religions) have their share of nutcases too. Really too bad about the race...

Well that sucks. I don't understand what point they are trying to prove.

Religous wars have been going on for centuries. My question is why? Your God better than mine - probably not - who's temple was it in the last century - I don't care. If you want to fight about it let's turn it all back to sand then decide. Get over it already! It's only been about 400 ******* years.

The concept of compromise does not exist in the self-righteous absolute truth mind of a religious wacko (and that extends to the Jerry Falwells of the World as much as the Bin Ladins,....). These people are really sick. The sad part is, they always seem to find weak minds to follow their every word. Poor world!

Come on, guys. The Jerry Falwells might want to keep you from buying beer on Sundays, but they aren't sawing peoples' heads off while chanting the name of God and then posting the video on the web.
