the most valuable aspect of [the movie] "Agora" is its documentary-like character, bringing to life the violent globalization of Christianity.

On September 10, 2010 a South African high court banned a Muslim activist from organizing a "Bible burning day" at the Library Gardens in Johannesburg on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. The event was meant to be a response to the planned Qur'an burning in Florida by Pastor Terry Jones.

An Islamic intellectual organization, The Scholars of Truth, launched a court interdict to prevent Mohammed Vawda from organizing the event. The defense, led by Attorneys Zehir Omar and Yasmin Omar, argued that the protest would be insulting to all religions and would only serve to divide people. Zehir Omar and Yasmin Omar are a married Muslim couple.
