Religion is religion. If a Muslim cartoon depicted Jesus screwing a donkey - would christians be upset?

It is a game ... and it is being played by the powerful against those that actually believe in a God (regardless of name). It is the old: play the good against the good and they may not understand the evil spreading it.

Truth is, the teachings of Mohamad areas worthy as those of Jesus - both were supressive of women - but, said honor them (because we alls gots mothers).

To villafial (sp) one persons aspect of a "political cartoon" (while those employing it knowingly realise they are violating a religious precept) is in itself "bullshit".

To create a premise that we must all be equal in religion is of course the hope of Christians - especially since 60-70% is Moslim. Still, hope spring eternal and the big lie always wins (or so some Christians hope, rather than face the reality that ... GOD is God, regardless of what one wants to call him.

Someone once said the best way to divert the attention of "the people" from the realities of the "STATE" was to use religion. Religion can always be a proving factor for the state .... if 20% believe it.

Personally? I find it offensive that anyone would degrade religion. Or, justify the actions against one.

Call me open minded >>>> or liberal ..... or open toother perceptions of GOD (call the prick Zeus, but acknowledge we created him). Period. But, take in mind the offensive nature of the toons depicting Mohamad and those printing them (knowing they would offend half the world) and then one can see the truth of the offense. That it was initiated by the Dutch (whom, I always felt a bit a kin because of their liberalism - they have legalized prostitutions, got to love that?) is almost offensive, Especially since their own "terrorist ATTACKS". It almost seems that it is OK for a nations press to close its' mind to reality - if its government has.

Doesn't it?

Proves a point though. That in the supposed democratic societies - the truely wealthy hold the balance of what democracy is. They define it. They have learned to live with it and now control; it.
