Hi everyone
of course it is a big fault from Denmark There must be limits for free speech especially for holy issues That isn't free of speech but a dismoral attitude Suppose muslims did the same for Jesus , they won't coz they respect all their prophets , what will u feel? will it be also free speech ?!!! When the World Trade Center is attacked, Bush made a war on Afghanistan What about attacking Muhammad ( pbuh ) muslims' prophet ? i wonder abt the cause of publishing such cartoons ? Why they published those cartoons for Muhammad (Pbuh) especially ?! I think the only cause is disliking muslims !!!!! thnx, & sorry for my poor english |

I'm sure you can agree the proper response would have been to write a polite, but firm letter to the editor saying the cartoons were offensive, and an apology was due.

About the cartoons though. This stems from a misunderstanding of the emphasis placed on religion in an Islamic world in comparison to the creator of the drawing and the newspapers that ran in, and most of western society. I think it was okay to make such a cartoon, as I cannot believe that the intent was to incite violence and hatred. However, the thing that gets me is the number of times the cartoon was reprinted, it ceasing to gain attention until now. I would defend it up until that point, because it seems that the reprints were an attempt at getting a response from Muslims, "we will keep printing this cartoon until it sparks something". I dont know the whole story behind the reprints but I dont see the need to do such a thing. As such I would definitly say the newspapers were in the wrong here as well. It seems they abused their freedom of speech to purposefully gain negative attention and incite something. I doubt they could have expected this, but you had to have known you were playing with fire. |

I can see it all now. An U-2 spy plane with fake UN colors on it, flying over Iran. Trailing the spy plane, an triple-long ad banner. -An banner showing that of the anti-Mohammad cartoons. /Show of hands, all those that have crapped their pants right about now.? Related Worst of all, if the above were an editorial comic, I'd probably add in some rock throwing at the spy plane ... only for the rocks to fall back down to the Earth at the rock throwers. Want to start world war three? Just add spy plane pilot caption: "I should fire Karl Rove for not coming up with this idea earlier." And with that, even worse, have the pilot don an pope hat to bring the Christian-right into this mess. Enter Pat Robertson, who doesn't know how to keep his big dumb mouth shut, and the only safe place for us all would be somewhere where it's very friggin cold. |

One need to differ here. A newspaper in a western society is not controlled by the state. So ultimately saying a whole country is at fault, would be as wrong as saying all muslims are terrorists. Quote:

Also this rule of an absolute prohibition of any pictorial art, or any depiction of sacred figures cannot be hold if one includes the whole timespan of islam, because there are several islamic paintings and miniatures showing the prophet in full: (anyway, if you don't want to break any hadith you should not visit that link) http://www.retecool.com/mirrordir/Mo...%20Archive.htm Quote:
But you could trigger the same anthipathy with certain holocaust cartoons (which did happen already years ago). Well, that should not mean danish or europe press has to behave as bad as some islamic press (which sadly is the case). Quote:

I think we're done here. I free a great welling up approaching like a violent thunderstorm stalking a lost fluffy kitten. I think everyone should take a deep breast and relax. Maybe rate a signature or avatar (or two).
Life is short. Duck. /Edit: Someone left me this anonymous negative Rep. for this post and I'd like to expand upon what was written: i agree it's a worthless thread, but it's an issue worth talking about. I too think the issue is worth talking about. I really do. I still do. That's why I let this thread bloom into nearly 100 posts. I had hopes, but I could see that it was fast becoming an emotion issue that would have snowballed into a pure unadulterated flame festival. Religion, Faith, Politics, Sexuality, War, or Goats .... all those subjects are flammable once someone lights a match (gas source). As a matter of fact, I'd love to see more "adult", "intellectual" or "socially topical" related threads like this in the General Chat forum, but I'd also like to see people show some maturity, humor and responsibility when posting in potentially inflammatory topics. A thread or discussion is worthless if it becomes the hate you seek to change. Maybe we can re-open the thread if the issue is still relevant in a few days.
