You've all read the rather infamous "How to Behead" poem and expressed your strong views about it. A lot of you have articulated your disgust, a lot of you have questioned IslamOnline.net's editorial wisdom in publishing it and asking for views.
Some of you said that as Muslims, we should "Confront it, discuss it," because not doing so is causing more damage.
Others thought that "this poem is intended to hit a nerve in the human core, just in case society has already become numb to this atrocious act as it is glamorized graphically in Utube ..." and said that by reading this poem, no one would want to carry out the act.
