The Muslim Jesus: a big row

Better watch this.  ITV's programme tonight on the Muslim idea of Jesus has already caused flak - and none more violent than the splendidly splenetic Christian blog by "Archbishop Cranmer".  He says that the programme "is both blasphemous and offensive to Christians the length and breadth of the country, but as long as it’s not blasphemous for Muslims, everything’s alright".
