Ok here is something i can understand.  They are most upset about Muhammed actually being depicted.  But i still think it is messed up that they can have all this offensive propaganda against us but any amount we have on them is pretty much an act of war.  Personally i have NO RESPECT for any fundamentalist islamic.  This is in large part to having my ass shot at, seeing friends killed, and watching innocent civilians getting their heads cut off with a butter knife.  Also seeing some of their propaganda showing American soldiers on chopping blocks is another reason.  I'll make sure I am shot and killed before i let them exploit me for their sick agenda. At some point it is inevitable that there will be another "Crusade" like war.

When this happens though...I hate to say it but the Islamic religion is going to be almost annihilated from the face of the earth.  There are some good muslims out there but the fundamentalist muslims have given their religion as a whole a serious problem.  To teach your superior to everyone else in the world and that its ok to kill anyone who doesn't believe in your religion is a huge problem of some sick sons of bitches.  Its almost like the middle east is full of tan Hitlers for their leaders.  World War 3 will start in the middle east.  And it wont be pretty at all, possibly the end of the world...who knows.
Agreed, EL-Tee. 

The biggest issue I have with the Islamic religion is the conflicting messages I get from people that subscribe to the religion.  Don't get me wrong...maybe Americans are simply not being exposed to such things, but I personally don't think that we are THAT sheltered.  On one side, you have the "nice" Muslims saying that Islam is a religion of peace, blah blah blah...but on the other side, I simply DO NOT HEAR of Muslims doing acts of kindness like missionary and charity work.  In addition, anytime I hear the word Islam and Muslim, it is usually attached to some terrorist act, riots, car bombings, flag burning, and comments of how Israel should be destroyed. 

You can not preach a conflicting message in the modern world where a news story will circle the entire globe 10 times within an hour after the story breaks.  No way.   Simply put, Islam has a VERY....BAD...REPUTATION in the minds of probably the majority of the world.  And Muslim countries wonder why the US and EU DON'T want them to have nuclear weapons?!?!  That would be like giving Attila the Hun an Imperial AT-AT Walker and then setting him loose in New York City.  Might it be because we don't feel that Muslims can control themselves or their emotions?  Somebody commented that the cartoon was as offensive as urinating on the Virgin Mary and that might be true.  However, the difference is that CIVILIZED nations at least TRY to protest such things in other ways besides blowing up the person who offended them.  The perfect example would be back in '87 with the "Piss Christ" controversy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piss_Christ).  There was outrage, yes.  There were calls for boycotts, yes.  There were calls for an apology, yes.  However...there were no riots.  No calls for fatwa or the assassination of the artist.  No fire bombing.  No DEATHS.

Muslims MUST change their mentality that you are either Muslim or an infidel because their current philosophy is a big fat double standard.  They feel morally justified in anything they do in the name of Islam and Muhammad because if you are an infidel, you are pretty much trash and you have no rights to co-exist with them anyhow.  In their minds, an infidel's opinion and rights don't count.  Why Muslims feel the need to enact God's "will" of removing infidels from the Earth is beyond me.  I would figure that if we were so horrifically bad, God is more than powerful enough to smite us from the planet like the dinosaurs and be done with it. 

It is that same steadfast cultural intolerance that has cause the rest of the world to leave them behind.  Islam is philosophically stuck about 1400 years in the past.  Islam has not evolved along with the rest of the world and now they find themselves "behind" in relation to the rest of the world in areas of wealth, power, technology, philosophy, and civility.  They want the respect of the rest of the world and equality in relation to the rest of the world, but then they don’t consider us to be equal to begin with.  That is a major contradiction.

No your atleast being reasonable and I can respect that.  Its that sgrk whatever his name that is pathetic.  He is right that the Kuran has not been changed since its origins. I wish i could say the same for the Bible but we had some fucked up popes at one time that changed it.  Hell thats how the crusades started was cuase we at one time believed the popes word was God's word.  But its his kind of attitude that is giving a horrible name for Islam.  There are descent Muslims out there as a whole but there are also a large majority that are fucked up.  Same with the Christian faith but the double standards have to stop for us to be able to coexhist peacefully.  The vatican had it fucked up times of philosophy deleting passages from earlier scripts and such.  But christianity is also based of Judaism and its Torra.  I know the Bible has been changed and I also know about my lord and my God.  I don't believe everything in the Bible becuase it has been changed so much but I still believe in the most important part. 

While I may disagree with some things that are posted and insult my religion I will by no means start a war or start killing people over it.  No religion is perfect becuase every single one is subject to a persons interpretation and that is how denominations of religion come about.  Islam and the Shi'ites and Sunni while Christianity has alot more.  But it is that wanker who is rampaging about him being superior and us inferior that is pissing me off.  It is that mentality that will start a war among the ignorant.

Sgk479 for your information though i also know about the profits in my religion and your religion happened to spawn off of Abraham.  The 12 tribes of Israel also came from Abraham, he is the father of both religions.  John the Baptist is another prophet of ours and Jesus was born from a virgin at the time.  It is also believed that later on he had a brother named James.  I bet you could ask my almost anything about my religion and i could tell you about it.  So kiss my ass.
lol i wouldnt like to kiss your as anyway when was the last time you washed your ass? you ever even washed your hands after takin ap piss, hell you eat with the same fuckin hand dirty mother fucker what am i gettin on your nerves?haha suck my dick i couldnt give a 2 fuck about you or your fuckin sister who you've alredy given the screw, you no its true you fukin homo, my religion is perfect, no mistakes any where in between, yes our people are fucked up and prophets dont write what theyv inherited gay boy they write and speak the word of our lord yh? how can you trust a reliogion thats been tuned, messed with?and changed aswel???youve created your own reliogion boy!!!! hahaha!!!!!

Sadly the outrage caused by the publication of these (admittedly tasteless) images appears to be the construction of some parts of the Muslim community designed to cause as much trouble as possible, further  bear in mind that the original publication of these images caused almost no fuss.

Now note that the taboo against drawing the Prophet is a mutable one, one that has waxed and waned over many years based on the interpretation of 2 key passages in the Hadith :

"And who is more unjust than those who try to create the likeness of my creation?"

And:

"Angels do not enter a house in which there is a dog or a picture."

Add these 2 quotes (especially the first) with the traditional Koranic precept of respect for the Prophet and you have the reason behind the injuctions against representing him. However there is still considerable debate over why those restrictions exist.

In the strictest sense these statements would require that no living thing may be pictured, nobody could have their photograph taken, illustrated books such as biology textbooks would end up without pictures and of course you may not in any way depict Mohammed. Other Islamic scholars argue that the intent of the prohibition is to prevent people worshipping the images of the Prophet, thus denying Allah his rightful worship.

Under the second, more reasonable (to Western eyes) interpretation then even satirical images (as allowed by laws and the various 'freedoms' of speech/journalism afforded to most Western democracies) such as those published are acceptable as they are clearly not intended to become objects of veneration.  As examples consider that the following depictions of Mohammed have all existed at one time or another (and many continue to exist):

The US Supreme Court has a statue of Mohammed who serves as the prime example of ancient law-makers.

William Blake, Salvador Dali and many other painters have painted Mohammed in their representations of Dante's Inferno, in which the Prophet ends up in Hell with his entrails hanging out and such images, whilst controversial haven't resulted in the burning of embassies or the like.

A German food company used images of Mohammed in the late 1920's for advertising bouillon.

France, a country with a notable Muslim population, has seen the publication of many books on Islam which depict the Prophet on the cover or inside the book to no noticeable outrage.

South Park featured a singing and dancing Mohammed in an episode back in 2001, again with little in the way of criticism from the Muslim community.

As for depictions of the Prophet in Muslim communities, well the Ottoman Empire depicted Mohammed in many ways, often in sculpture and often depicted his face on such works too (though it was quite common to leave the face blank or veil it out of respect). 

Even today in a strict Islamist state such as Islam there exists a considerable trade in images of the Prophet, though asmittedly the prohibition is strictest amongst Sunnis rather than the Shia who dominate Iran.

At any rate, the point I'm trying to make is that the incident has been blown out of proportion for the purposes of a group of men who delight in foment, chaos, disorder and prejudice. To join in the outrage, on either side, to rant about freedom of the press or the sacrosanct nature of the Prophet, is to give them victory. The simplest way to defeat them is to understand and respect the differences between the Muslim and non-Muslim worlds.

It's very hard to understand something you don't respect. For example if you don't know fire is hot, if you don't understand that then you'll stick your hand in it and get burnt. Of course, once you've done that you'll understand fire is hot and respect that in future. It's a shaky analogy I know, but it should serve to illustrate that ignorance is not a condition conducive to respect and that before you can respect somehting you need to learn something about it. In short, whilst the West is ignorant of Islam and Islam is ignorant of the West then respect (mutual or otherwise) is virtually impossible and this kind of problem will re-occur...

sgk479, do one thing.  Prove that any of your religion, or any other religion for that matter, is accurate.  If you can scientifically prove to me that God exists, and that Islam is the only correct, true religion, then I'll convert of my own accord. 

Religion is based on faith.  By definition faith is belief in something that cannot be detected by any of the 5 human senses, nor can it be scientifically proven, but people still believe in it.  So, until Islam, the Christians, Jews, or any other backward ass religion can PROVE that God exists, you need to STFU and keep religion to yourself.  Practice in your home and place of worship, but if you even think for a minute that Islam is going to be allowed to start WWIII over something like this, you are sadly fucking mistaken.

look a history how many wars have been fought over religion, the fact both christians and muslims have a word for holywar (Crusade and Jihad). the crusades for example why would god want us to go to war in his name, in my view they should be inspiring hope for mankind bringing the people of this world closer together not making us kick the shit out of eachother.

You people talk of freedom of speech, yet in America, the so called 'leader of the free world', you can sue and win against someone who slandered your name. So what, you talk about being able to say whatever you want, but as soon as you do, you get hit with a multimillion dollar lawsuit. its amazing the hypocracy that you believe in.
"SLANDER - A false defamation (expressed in spoken words, signs, or gestures) which injures the character or reputation of the person defamed; distinguished from libel.

The defaming a man in his reputation by speaking or writing words which affect his life, office, or trade, or which tend to his loss of preferment in marriage or service, or in his inheritance, or which occasion any other particular damage. In England, if slander be spoken of a peer, or other great man, it is called Scandalum Magnatum. Falsity and malice are ingredients of slander. Written or printed slanders are libels."

So, slander has to cause actual harm in order to be actionable.  Furthermore, Satire (as in cartoons), is regularly found to be protected speech, not slander - regardless of how offensive one may find it.

Not all Muslims believe in a war against the West. However, the danish cartoon went as far as to say that the whole religion is based on it. Which is absolutely absurd and incorrect.
Maybe you should convince your co-religionists to knock it off then?  One of the big problems westerners have with Islam (and it has been said here again and again) is that the non violent Muslims don't seem to do much to reign in the violent Muslims.  Why is that?  In most western countries if someone is found to be plotting attacks, we tend to turn that person in.

i get your point fella, look i aint got shit against you ok?i really dont, i dont hate christianity n i dont hate the jews,i hate those who opress against my religion you really will never understand the love we muslims have for our religion. i have christian friends and jewish friends, but likewise you get good people and assholes everywhere. look put it this way, even f my real brother went against my religion, i wouldnt hesitate in going against him and putting him down. i have respect for your religion and your people, but there are more christians in the world who are moslty grown up with a stereotypical mind thinkin all muslims are terrorists, tell me y is it you think this?
To most westerners 'respect' includes tolerance of differences: that means that if my brother, 'goes against my religion' I don't feel the need to, 'go against him and put him down.'  We aren't perfect, but the most casual observation leads one to believe that the average Westerner is more tolerant than the average Middle-Easterner.

Case in point:  Piss Christ.  How much more offensive to Christians can you get?  Yet there was no arson, and there were no riots.  There were protests, but they knew that violence was not called for.  Why don't Muslims understand that?

look a history how many wars have been fought over religion, the fact both christians and muslims have a word for holywar (Crusade and Jihad). the crusades for example why would god want us to go to war in his name, in my view they should be inspiring hope for mankind bringing the people of this world closer together not making us kick the shit out of eachother.
But almost every single christian realizes how bad a mistake those crusades were.  Most people at that time were not able to read and the bible was not readily available to those who could.  It took years to write a new bible by hand.  This lack of literacy plus relying on the pope's word too much is what caused the crusades.  The roman catholic church at times has had evil and currupt men in power.  The pope that started it all even went so far as to change areas in the bible making it ok to kill those not of our faith.  Hes probably burning in hell for that since at the very end in Revelations it states "DO NOT CHANGE THE WORDS IN THIS BIBLE. TO DO SO WILL CERTAINLY SEND YOU TO HELL."  Those may not be the exact words but that is what its saying. And you are right that we should not have fought those wars claiming that they were in the name of our God.  I am sure that he did not like seeing all the blood shed and killings of all religions including the Jews.  They after all did believe in him first and we just followed suite under our messiah.  Jesus also taught us not to hate but love thy enemy.  It is alot to ask of us sometimes, but it can be done.

Also like some other guy said is that how do we know 100% our religion is right or wrong.  Well we don't its all based on faith.  So to go up to some buhdist and tell him he is wrong and needs to convert is wrong in my part.  While i would like to help him in the feeling that my religion is correct I will by no means make an enemy by forcing it on him.  If he wants to change on his own free will then so be it.  I would much rather him ask me about it and i teach him that way than to feel like im forcing it on him.
