Although the photography is good the message of this ad shows a lack of understanding of the local culture and religion as this is deemed as an ethnic insult. I have not personally seen this ad published anywhere in the local media and very much suspect that this ad got published. spoof/scam ads continue to devalue creativity and the importance of what true ad people  do.  I would also like to mention that the idea is not new even if it were published.

Special thanks to Gaja for submitting the following two examples.
