Have you guys seen the cartoon of Mohammed?

The insensitive cartoonists have a right to print it.  The muslims have a right to protest it.  I wish people would show a little more repsect towards other people and not try to deliberately offend them.  I am not muslim and have no respect for their religion. But as one human being to another, i respect their right to believe it and would not make a mockery of something that may be sacred to them.  I would excpect the same respect.

I've seen it - it's hilarious.\n\nHe first bashes the keyboard till his hands come off, then his arms, and then he bashes his head on the keyboard till his eyeballs pop out and head gets smashed.\n\nNeed to remember where...\n\n******\nCan't remember where exactly, but I think someone used it as his avatar in a forum somewhere. I've found a copy of it on my PC though.. Let's see if I can post it somewhere for you...\n\n*******\n\nHey! Found it! See the link.

I suspect not ... ask Salman Rushdie !\n\nRight or wrong the fall-out from even a small slight on Islam would be massive ... it appears that the Islamic religion is unable to accept any level of parody.  I am not making a racist point here just reminding folks over the furor over a few cartoons.\n\nPeace Out.

No. I am seeing Saturday moring cartoon show of Abu Graib tortures as well as action figures of CIA/OGA and Navy SEALS ordering the abuse while GI JOES and GI JANES carry it out. \n\nWe can even make these victims into Haloween costumes for kids to make it more palatable to have people disappear and end up being " rendered " in secret detention centers over seas.\n\nI think there is a Thomas Kinkaid sculptre of the guy with wire on his thumbe draped in a pauncho  on the box for sale in 3 easy installments for $29.99 each - but supplies are limited. \n\nNo, sadly many, many Americans ( who may even be Christian conservatives ), seem to think this is OK and justified. \n\nWhat have we become?  Dear god. Didnt the GESTAPO do stuff like this ? But I am a liberal, what do I know?

This link gives more details\nBecause the core of the story is not related to the printing of the orignal and "genuine" 12 cartoons...\n\nAt the end of the link, the dark brown pics are the added cartoons that many say, the Danish Imam added when he wanted to create reactions from the muslim countries (5 months after the incident !).\n\nIf you have, like the Mufti of Marseille would say, maturity in your faith (if you are Muslim) the 12 original Cartoons should not make you react. Like the Mufti of Marseille says, Mr. Benchek, freedom of speech has been an essential aspect of how muslim live in the West. The reactions are proof that Muslims are not strong in their Faith and feel insulted for just a few pics of bad taste (he was reffering to ONLY the original Cartoons and not the Mysteriously 3 added ones...)\n\nMake sure you read throughly to distingish what is said.... Because if you only "look" you will be another one of the manipulated persons, which ever side of the coin you are on.\n\nCiao !

Actually some muslim newspaper is going to publish cartoons about holocaust and exuse with freedom of speech. Still I think these are too differnt things. People had died during holocaust, and Mohammed is just a religios figure. Even more, poeple actually die in his name....

Good for you for sharing that...\n\nThe Mufti of Marseille quoted the same verses...\nHe was angered by the muslim community for demonstrating against the Cartoons \n\nHe said that especially Western Muslims, have benefited greatly from Free Speehc and Free Press...\n\nHe said that those manifestations where the proof that Muslims were week in their faith because they got offended for just a few cartoons of bad tastes. He also says that Criticism helps make one strong and look at himself.\n\nHe also added: That the current problem with Islam in the West and Arab countries is that there are more and more Imam that dont have enough spiritual knowledge of Islam and they are too focused on the political aspect of Islam... Such as the Imam of Danemark that provoked the whole situation...\n\nSo you are right to ask that questions.... But very very very few Muftis and Imams voice the spiritual view of Islam...Mr. Benchek. the Mufti of Marseille is a rare gem (With Balls I might say...).

*Shaking my shaggy skull* While I believe that bounties to kill, killing, violence of any kind is wrong, seems a lot of people either forget or just dun understand some basics...\n\nTop of the list, that cartoon to a Moslim is highly highly insulting thing and basically is like 2 "You shall have no other gods besides Me...Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..."\n\nI mean how would a christian feel if a cartoon was made showing say jesus performing homosexual acts? They wouldn't like it, not one little bit and would be screaming bloody murder...\n\nNext, frankly the Middle East has gotten the short end of the stick from the western society for a loooooooooong time. Now the top superpowers are invading them one country at a time. They are fed up and I dun really blame them for it.\n\nLastly the cartoonist should have known better, so should have the papers that printed them. When the Moslims said "Hey, we don't like that!" an apology should have been made right then and there. But instead all they got was arrogance.\n\nNow before anyone says "But we have freedom of speech and creativity." Do we really? I certainly couldn't put the before mentioned cartoon of jesus in a national/continental newspaper. It would have been nixed purely because it would upset people.\n\nSo before calling them insane, imagine how you would feel if the roles were reversed and it was your savior that was shown in a nasty light...

The word 'cartoon' is irrelevant in this whole story - it is not the way Mohammed was depicted, but the very fact that he was depicted at all which causes offence to Muslims. There is no easy secular or Christian analogy.\n\nMy own opinion is that any newspaper aimed at a mass or general market should attempt to be sensitive to as many views as possible. Let those who wish to exercise press freedom as an end in itself, simply because they can, be happy with pamphleteering until they can appreciate that with freedom comes responsibility.

I don't think they're overeacting at all. It's very offensive toward the entire church and faith community. Someone draws a cartoon of Muhamad and it causes worldwide rage among Muslims. This movie completely shoots down the credibility of the Christian faith - and sadly - a lot of people buy into these theories. I think it's only rational to be upset - if you're a Christian period - not just a Roman Catholic.

I hope somebody in here really knows. When I finished watching the episode, I really wasn't sure if it was supposed to be a joke or if Comedy Central really did censor it. \n\nThe fact that it's not clear that it was a joke suggests to me that it wasn't...but I'm just not sure.\n\nUpdate!!  It wasn't a joke - Comedy Central really did censor it!! Here's a link to the news article:\n\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060413/ap_on_en_tv/tv_south_park_muhammad

We Muslims do not believe that it is right to have a picture of Allah. Think of it this way: How would /you/ draw /your/ God? No matter how you do it, it would be flawed in one way or another.
