Actor Liam Neeson invites fatwa, compares Mohammed to an animal

Hmmmm. Perhaps actor Liam Neeson hasn’t thought out his politically-correct comments thoroughly enough. He seems to be asking for a fatwa when he says his character in the Narnia movies could represent Mohammed.

Fatwa! Liam Neeson has compared Mohammed to an animal that licks its own...well...you know what cats do.

The Telegraph UK has the details of Neeson’s death wish:

The actor who voices the lion in the film adaptations of the books has angered some fans of the stories, who claim he is distorting Lewis’s intentions to be “politically correct”…

Lewis was clear that the Aslan was based on Christ, and once wrote of the character: “He is an invention giving an imaginary answer to the question: “What might Christ become like if there really were a world like Narnia?”.” 
In the climax of the first book, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Aslan sacrifices his life to save Narnia, before rising from the dead, a plot which is widely believed to represent the crucifixion and the resurrection.

But ahead of the release of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, the third Narnia book to be made into a film, next week, Neeson said: “Aslan symbolises a Christlike figure, but he also symbolises for me Mohammed, Buddha and all the great spiritual leaders and prophets over the centuries…”

Liam Neeson just compared Mohammed to a filthy animal.

Congratulations, Liam. You may be the first person nominated for an Academy Award and a fatwa in the same year.
