My spidey sense tells me the news is not that there are extremist mullahs trying to gain a foothold in Indonesia. There's always some faction or someother trying to gain a foothold.
Now... See, I didn't know they made coffee from beans partially digested by Civets. I read up on it, and it seems there are about 450Kg of it processed each year. And... It's good to know that it's ok (halal) if the beans are washed. No shyte! Literally! Bwahahaha!

Anyway, I despise the whole social control "Sin Police" aspect. Like, burning shops that refuse to close during prayer time (or closing bars on Sunday). Contrasting to modern protestantism for a minute, they leave penitence for sins between a person and their God, although there are always some who want to legislate morality here as well. We still have a ways to go to liberate our society from our puritanical history.
