Freedom of speech is so complicated. Lets just say if someone made funny cartoons of your dad what would you do to him.

A) Laugh and be friends
B) Slap him
C) Forgive and forget
D) Throw punches

Wot a stupid question Id Give him a good slap.
What im tryin to say is in the hearts of muslims Muhammed(sww) was more inspiring, knowledgable, passionate, couragous, beautiful in mind body and soul that we should love him 10 times more than our own father and we should love God 100 times more than our father do you now understand what gos on with muslims heads when we protect our religion. Wots 10 times worse than slapping Killing althogh i feel thats wrong but i feel the cartoonist was wrong to create such cartoons of our prophet.

What do you think? Am i right or wrong

The right of religious zeal ends when it interfers with another persons right to free expression. Period...

I understand what you are saying, and I too do not approve of any cartoonists mocking a religion for the sake of humor. As for an appropriate response, freedom of expression is a God given right- it is a part of free will. God wants us to be able to express ourselves and when we see some express something we disagree with then we should say so, but to Kill someone for something they said- that is taking away free will- why would God want that? The Muslims who chanted for the death of the cartoonist did a far greater injustice to the reputation of Islam than the cartoonist himself. I am not a Muslim, by the way, but I respect all different faiths.

we should forgive as this is what Jesus said:

Mat 6:14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
Mat 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Luk 6:27 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
Luk 6:28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.

The only reason muslims went into a rage about those cartoons is because there is no such thing as forgiveness in the koran. What about the comics in muslim countries which degrade Israel ? There are hundreds of them but you don't see half the world going into a rage & roiting over them ! just more proof of the hypocrisy of islam.

You may express anything you wish. But I have noticed that holy books fall into two categories that define the type of faith. In the first category are books that gather wisdom written by many authors over a long period of time. In the second category are books written by one person proclaiming to know everything you ever needed to know. The second category encompasses loony-toon creations such as Mao's little red book, Hitler's Mein Kampf, Joseph Smith's Book of Mormon, L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics, and Muhammed's Koran.

Have you considered that the public behavior of Muslims is so outrageous and offensive to others that no cartoon is needed? You disgrace your own prophet well enough without them.

Muslims (and Islam) say Jesus was a prophet but they reject all His teachings ....that is hypocrisy. In effect they slap God's Son in the face...

They reject Christ's divinity;
they reject his claim to be the Son of God;
they reject his death on the cross...
they reject His ressurrection..
They reject Jesus is the Christ/ Messiah...
Need I say more...?

Don't be deceived. The Islamic god is totally different than the God of Jesus Christ.

The Bible calls Muhammed and those like him false prophets:
"Who is a liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is anti-Christ, that denies the Father and the Son. He that denies the Son, the same has not the Father." (I John 2:22

You can start by expressing yourself as a responsible adult...and not like a bunch of bullying children. Islam is FULL of hatred, violence and intolerance.

It's sad to see that you seem to sincerely believe that PHYSICAL VIOLENCE is the correct and appropriate response to "funny cartoons". It speaks loudly of the true nature of islam.

What do I think? I think that you are wrong. I believe that your Muhammed was wrong when he invented islam and allah. I believe that you are so very, very wrong in adoring such a person who had so very, very, very many things wrong with him.

There can be no peace when you're forced to tip-toe around some schoolyard bully.

Yaks(pbut).

It's a cartoon...
You don't have to like it, but you don't have the right to kill anyone over it.
My Dad would love funny cartoons being made of him, and I'm sure we'd all have a good giggle together. We don't take ourselves so seriously that we can't laugh at ourselves...life is meant to be fun, try to learn to ease up a bit and enjoy it.
Try growing a sense of humor......

For something as dumb as a "funny cartoon", id do a mixture of A and C, i'd laugh and forget.

Violence isnt the answer to non-violent problems. The Muslims took the Muhammad picture thing way too far and actually killed people over it.

There is always a fine line which should not be crossed. Most Muslims don't want the cartoonist to be killed but it is also wrong to just sit around and say nothing.

You are wrong with the violent reaction

I understand you are passionate towards the thoughts of our dad but violence solves nothing. It only keeps the problem going on and on
