Teacher who Insulted Teddy Bear Convicted in Sudan

Sudan has found the British teacher who allowed students to name a teddy bear 'Muhammad' guilty of insulting religion and inciting hatred against Islam, and has sentenced her to 15 days in jail and to deportation.

Upon hearing this news, people all over Sudan began naming teddy bears Muhammad.

While jurists in the free world mostly agreed with the Sudan verdict, they disagreed with the charges, saying that the teacher instead should have been convicted for insulting a teddy bear.

They argued that naming a bed of nails or a guillotine 'Muhammad' is one thing, but warm and fuzzy objects such as teddy bears truly run contrary to Islam.
