I know, I know... it's against the rules of Islam to portray the Prophet. But it IS a pretty good likeness... Wink

But certain likenesses are more provocative than others.

I would not want to be his life insurance company.
Too bad, I enjoy his strip.

On the one hand, I'm glad he's sticking out his tongue at the people that get violent about "blasphemous" cartoons, daring them to do something.

On the other hand, it's an unnecessary offense to millions of peace-loving Muslims. 


The real question is whether this represents real bravery on his part, or just a bid for publicity.  Is he in real danger, now?

Thats what I was wondering.

Well, remember the guy that had the Koran shoot? He got death threats.

So, I'd say that odds are, he's getting threats...

This is two points of agreement between us now.  A sign of the endtimes or what?

The fact is, by insulting Islam, you are much more likely in America to make lots of money and get interviews on CNN, than you are to be killed or injured.  It's not a high risk occupation-it's a fairly decent business.

If it's okay to portray Jesus Christ as a character in an obscene cartoon and not be subject to violence, violent threats, lawsuits etc., it must also be just as acceptable to draw Mohammed's head on a pig's body, which is far less offensive than the portrayals of Christ I have seen.
