I would not be surprised if the guy winds up dead.

Maybe. Although as he and his followers appear to be the agrressive gun toting sort of "Christian" they will probably pick easier targets as usual. We shall see.

I would not be surprised if the guy winds up dead. Consider the Mohammed cartoon which many TV shows are too scared to show even when talking about the subject in documentaries, was just a cartoon.

Hardly a cartoon.

There were no comedy pratfalls off a cliff, bulging eyeballs or nifty sound effects.

We woz robbed I tells ya.

So who exactly are the enemy in this case?

The enemy is Islam. Islam is a supremacist political cult and a totalitarian belief system, just like Nazism and Communism.

Is it only the book that they are concerned with in this digital age? What if you downloaded a pdf of the Koran and then deleted it? Or put it in a directory called C:\pork\ ?

Just askin.

Just askin.

The answer might just blow you away...

Fundamentalist Christian; ‘I is gonna burn yo’ holy book!’

Fundamentalist Muslim; ‘We will burn your temples and churches at the great barbecue of Satan!’

FC; ‘I is gonna make second rate cartoons to mock yo’ prophet!’

FM; ‘We will burn your flag, infidel!’

FC; ‘Has yo forgotten the shock and awe? Yo want some more?’

FM; ‘We give you new 9/11 again!’



Honestly, seven year olds in the school playground show the same behaviour; that’s why seven year olds aren’t appointed to run armies and control nuclear weapons. (I know, George W Bush was, but he was 6 and a half when he got the job)

Why can’t all the fundamentalist believers just grow up, get a life and relax on the sofa with their chosen beverage like the rest of us?

Really, it's all very childish. Stop it. As Marcus Brigstocke said;

I'd like to start this week with a request, and this one goes out to the followers of the three Abrahamic religions: the Muslims, Christians, and Jews. It's just a little thing, really, but do you think that when you've finished smashing up the world and blowing each other to bits and demanding special privleges while you do it, do you think that maybe the rest of us could sort of have our planet back? I wouldn't ask, but I'm starting to think that there must be something written in the special books that each of you so enjoy referring to that it's ok to behave like special, petulent, pugnacious pricks.

All I'd add is that a lot of the atheists aren't much better.

I wonder how many Christians in predominantly Muslim countries will be killed as a result of this action?

Probably not very many (although one is too many). Most of the people killed by Islamist terrorists are muslims.


Good cartoon. But then, my description is 'obstinate git' for a reason.
