    If its not too much of a bother then kindly read this and this . I am not saying that Muslims have not acted out of sorts in response to this act. But that the majority of us have responded with alot of restraint. It again depends upon how the media chooses to paint the picture of a certain event.

    So then its only good if this reamins an extremist provocation and the majority takes distance to the protestations…But then again, the Egyptian president have said that Rasmusens apoligyes were insufficient so…

    …back to handball…

    …It really bugs me that they only show it on the swedish channels here…whit swedis referance. How can one sport be so etyhnically flaouwored?? We never played it on school, thougth it seems a fun game

    And who exactly are Europeans to dictate how Muslims relate to their religion?

    I said I hope, Its my personal subjective obinion

    Likewise I can hope as well that Europeans start taking their respective religions a tad more seriously.

    well you can hope…But reality is that religions are relics from the pre-sientific era and as human race evolps toward future these things drops out as useles… as soon as all of them dryes out as silly bedtime storyes for kids, the better place this earht starts to be…remember from that song, “…nothing to kill and die for…”

    Thats if the thought doesn’t offend them.
    The newspaper did a deliberately provocative thing. It commissioned cartoons depicting Muhammad and then it published 12 of them. But satire is judged not only by what is said, but by who is saying it and in what circumstances. Freedom of expression does not exist in a vacuum. And the fact that freedom of expression to expose hypocritical actions done in the name of a religion is one thing, but freedom of expression to denigrate the religion itself, is another. This was a case of seeking a reason to exercise a freedom that had not been challenged. No government, political party, or corporate interest was trying to deny the paper its right to publish whatever it wanted. The original purpose of printing the cartoons — some of which maliciously and stupidly identified Mohammed with terrorists, who could want nothing better than to be associated with the prophet — was plainly to be provocative. Islam prohibits the depiction of Mohammed in any way, whether the image is benign or not.

    yes the provocative nature of them was certain, but then we should consider why they wanted to provocate. Was there something internal dannish immigarant issues involved? Critizising religion, even mockery of it isent the same thing as to deny others from practicing it so arguments saying that are going wrong way. Muslims own actions begun pretty soon dig ground out of their claims of Danes beeing tasteless and irresponsible. Its not practically wise to claim other stubid by acting more stubidly yourself
