A teacher in a Muslim Country named the class Teddy Bear "Mohammed" and now she is in jail and facing serious charges that may have extreme punishments. The Teddy Bear was not even Muslim, it was made in China and now some Muslim Leaders in neighboring countries are asking for execution for this heinous crime of naming a stuffed animal; Mohammed.

The story gets worse, as it was the second graders in the class are the ones who named the Teddy Bear that they love "Mohammed" and the teacher merely let them do it. The teacher is a British Citizen who is working in a Muslim Country. Is this just more culture clash between Islam and the Western World, as it is all over our TV Sets.

Folks in modernized nations are appalled that the lady as been jailed and the Sudan Islamic Government is now considering execution of this teacher. Meanwhile, about 20% of all male babies are named Mohammed in the World of Islam. So it is okay to name the babies Mohammed, but not a Chinese Teddy Bear, imported from Shanghai.

If I was a Teddy Bear, I would not care what they named me, as long as the children loved me and I made them happy, as that is the job of a Teddy Bear. If the children named me Mohammed, I would simply shrug and get over it and love those children with all my heart, as that is what an imported Teddy Bear is all about. It is time for the World to grow up and put things into perspective and learn to love all including Teddy Bears and School Teachers.
