It's because there is so many damn Christians. If you make one offensive comment, they all get pissed off.


Let's be reasonable, though, Sean. If a cartoon depicted someone you believe to be your Lord and Saviour - God Himself - in the act of bestiality, don't you think you'd have the right to be pissed off?

Even if it was a cartoon of Ghandi screwing a camel or something, I would understand an Indian/Ghandi admirer taking offense to that (not to mention be disappointed myself).

If I saw a cartoon of Mohammed committing despicable acts, I would be offended and disappointed by that, too - the point is, it's unsolicited and disrespectful.

Obviously nothing like this gives someone the right to go postal or anything like that...but certainly the right to take offense.
