[CanYoAssDigIt] The Cartoons that Shook the World

Unique among religions, the Mystic Knights of the Easter Bunny welcome ridicule of our faith and our deity.  In fact, it is one of the central tenets of our belief.

So if you want to make fun of the Easter Bunny - the Grand Ayatollah Gleaming Skull sez "bring it on!"

The Cartoons that Shook the World
23 February 2006

When I first read about the Islamic response to a Danish newspapers' publishing of cartoons depicting Mohammed, I remembered the worldwide reaction Sinead O'Connor received when she ripped up a picture of the Pope on Saturday Night Live. I also thought of the reactions of Christians to Martin Scorsese's "Last Temptation of Christ."

All religious people react irrationally when a symbol of their belief is somehow denigrated. Religion is deeply ingrained upon the emotions of individuals and they often act emotionally when their beliefs are challenged. And because religion can be felt on such a deep level, it sometimes becomes a good breeding ground for fanatics.
