Yes, Malaysia has witnessed a couple of high flying religious heads who have warned Muslims that Manchester United's Crest is Satanic and shouldn't be worn, similarly signs of crosses shouldn't be worn! (Just as some of them decided to pull off the sign of the cross from missionary schools many years ago which was a gross misconduct and portrayal of feudalism!)
I believe that any clear thinking citizen would be rather ashamed by such shallow and ignorant interpretations by these religious heads. While making such comment, these ignorant fools have forgotten that Malaysia has bilateral ties with many countries who have the sign of the cross on their flags! It's rather stupid to comment on the Cross and again they are the ones shivering at the thought of the crucifix, just as devils would!
Going back to MU, many of them in the team are practising Christians and the word 'Devil' was never meant as 'Lucifer' in the Bible, it was meant as 'Warriors' of Football. Again these religious heads should never translate English words into Malay simply because most English words has different meanings and cultures tied to it, just as in Mandarin and Tamil.
Do these Malaysian Islamic Leaders realize what a foolish picture they are painting of Malaysia and the fact that they are causing so much hatred towards Islam! I salute these leaders for causing harm and hatred towards their own religion! A Classic form of Stupidity that will never end!
