You know... @ 09:15 am

It's amusing the way a lot of Muslims are up in arms about a stupid drawing. Yes, they're rioting over a Danish picture showing Muhammad wearing a bomb on his turban or something.

Now, granted I come from a country of free speech (At least for now anyway) so things like this are commonplace, and aren't really held with much seriousness. So I may be a bit biased in this.

What I think is REALLY ironic is that these guys are protesting the picture (Because depicting Muhammad is against the teachings of the Quran) by attacking people and burning down buildings - which is ALSO apparently against the teachings of Muhammad himself in the Quran.

So really, what do we all learn from this?

Only Muslims can break holy law! Anyone else is a defiler and blasphemer.

Anyone else think we should just nuke the whole goddamn Middle east? I mean they've been bickering and fighting for over 2000 years. People think Internet drama lasts for eternity...

Right now you're representing all Muslims by the actions of the extremeists, the 'fundamentalists' who invoke violence.

You might remember that Christian fundies are exactly the same; like Pat Robertson calling for assassination flying directly in the face of what Jesus would have said.

You might not be thinking things through if you think all Muslims are violent and bickering. I have known dozens of Muslims personally in my life, and most of them would have seen the pictures and given a big shrug.

But no, you advocate to nuke the middle east because thats where the muslim fundies live. Which is great! Because when those muslim fundies nuke/bomb the US because it's where the Christian fundies live (even tho you're not one of them), you'll know exactly where they're coming from.

Heh, Sterling's been saying that for years. *chuckle*
I'm of the oppinion we aught to just shut the borders airtight, and let them kill themselves all off.

But of course "That's inhumaaaaaane!" (whiney voice here)

I'd love to see the book of records that dictates all of what is inhumane and what isn't. Y'know, just so I can have an understanding here.

This sort of thing simply doesn't phase me anymore. It's the nature of extremists in any given group (religious or otherwise) to react that way. I truly wish there was a way to get people to actually notice their own hypocricy, though I've pretty much lost all hope in that regard.
