That's the same logic as machette has, Europeans upset muslims so
lets ridicule Jews. As if Iran doesn't do that on a permanent basis anyway.

I wouldn't be suprised, I seem to remember you raving on about western publishers not letting you get
your hands on enough anti-semitic propaganda, so going directly to the source would be best for you.

no one said it wasnt ok to make fun of christianity, in fact, its been done so many times, no one gives a shit. thats the whole point of this. its ok to make fun of everyone, so the only problem here is people going apeshit and burning down embassies and threatening to bomb printers and eventually killing themselves over this kind of fervor. these are the same fucks that stampede eachother in mecca and when they throw rocks at that slab of stone and hit eachother instead. they dont really need to make cartoons of these people, just watching them run barefoot infront of a moving car is funny enough.

We have no idea that they did make cartoons against christianity in the past, the article doesnt say so and I cant find much on the internet - found that the newspaper sits on the right of the spectrum, may have some bearing to the decisions made. But I do believe if they passed on cartoons that made priests laugh they missed a valid opportunity. Instead they decided to go against the Koran that forbids imagery of the prophet. Any way you look at it the danes screwed up big time.

I'm so glad that you have decided that the rest of us must follow the Qur'an. Is there anything else we can do for you today.
So remember, free speach for all, unless the iman doesn't like it. stupid:

Well if it's gone untouched for so many years why bring it up now? Is it that we have adopted modernity so that basically means nothing is taboo?
Freedom of speech for all? Indeed, until the newspaper said no to christian cartoons and yes to muslim ones.. rolleyes:
Freedom of speech for the rolling stones when they had their mic cut off for a few seconds because of sexually explicit lyrics at the super bowl...indeed America has broken a small taboo. oOo:
