From the Ar-Rahman list, which has been blessedly free of blistering anti-US and anti-Israel sentiment for the past couple of months, ever since someone spoke up and mentioned that hey, this stuff is actually kinda offensive:
Oh. Yeah. Geez. No idea why I never saw that before. Hey, I've got some incontrovertible proof, by the way, that Barney the Purple Dinosaur is really Satan. See, just add up all the letters that can be interpreted as Roman numerals, and you get 666, or something. <yawn> Next...
Hey, and I thought all the good Doctor was trying to do was capitalize on the great taste of a narcotic with syrup. Time for everybody to switch to Mecca-Cola, eh?
(Ah well. At least our religious loonies more or less keep it within the family, or at least they keep the racist conspiracy theories locked up in their woodland cabins where they can't hurt anybody.)
