Why Would You Do Such A Thing?? WHY??

Dude, no one really cares about 1 or 1000 websites poking fun at Muhammed or Jesus or anything. No one gives a damn. Except Muslims.

If Muslims are to move forward as a culture and as a people, they must realize what is farce/satirical.

Many, many, MANY, people have made fun of Jesus, does that insult the 2.1 BILLION Christians on this planet? No, not really. Why should 1.3 billion Muslims be offended of a few satirical cartoons that's really no worse than any other comic about Jesus?

To me, it seems as if Muslims believe that their religion is the best in the world, and that no one is allow to criticize, comment, or otherwise say anything about Islam.
I'm not a muslim.. I'm a Christan, and i care.
But i see what you mean that there's no point getting all mad about it! But i still think its wrong mock regions like they do.. It's ok if it is funny(Like the South park thingy), but that Jesus dressup thing is just wrong!

in Muslim countries blasphemy results in death!!!

Exactly my point. Blasphemy only results in deaths in Muslim country. There is no other country in the world where blasphemy would result in death, except Muslim countries.

It is no longer freedom of speech, freedom of expression when one is codemned to death because of something he/she expressed.

My point is that you wouldn't go on a murderous rampage or burn down embassies because Family Guy said Jesus was a magician.

Point taken..

ok, but de wernt calling Muhammed PBUH a magician. they called Muhammed PBUH a terrorist

The effect is the same. It doesn't matter what the joke is, what's the problem is how you react to it.


There's absolutely NOTHING wrong with being offended by a comedic or satirical material, however reacting the way many Muslims did about those cartoons is just plain wrong.

If you went to a comedy club, and a comedian insulted you, you would either leave or let them know that you felt insulted. However, what you do not do is resort to violence. Violence is never the answer for anything. That's not the civilized thing to do.
 
ok, i know they reacted wrong. which is why i am emailing people about the website.... the so called 'civilized' way.
the cartoons portrayed Muslims as uncivilized, yet ppl are shocked when we act that way
 
Another thing I should mention is that merely complaining to someone doesn't mean it will get changed.

That analogy I made earlier about the comedy club still stands. When you complain to someone, they may or may not take your complaint seriously. They may not always make the effort to satisfy you, because they know that what they are doing, it's not illegal.

It's not illegal in Denmark to express one self, and they are not required to submit to your complaints.

I agree that the cartoons were in poor taste, and morally and ethically should never have been published. But they were, and there is absolutely nothing illegal about it.
 
Unfortunately for you, that site is hosted in the US. Contacting whatever consulate can do nothing but ask politely to remove the site. Foreign dignitaries have no jurisdiction in the States, and as it is, that site is not breaking any US laws.

Just because you don't like something, doesn't mean that bitching about it will get you a satisfactory result. You're not a king.

Alot of people said to me, "so what, its just a cartoon, people are over reacting. so what if he has a bomb shaped turban?"
BUT, if i published a cartoon with Jesus or Moses looking like a terrorist what would christians and jews say??

Jews aren't usually considered terrorists. You usually don't hear much of Jews slamming planes into buildings, blowing themselves up in discos, and launching rockets with the intent of killing civilians.

I'd think a cartoon depicting Jews as terrorists would be funny, because it would be ironic. Jews aren't terrorists. LOL

True, though consider that people make terrorists, not the religion. I rather see religion as the scapegoat...
 
If someone made fun of the pope, myself being a Catholic, would probably have a little chuckle.

I disagree. Islam breeds terrorism, the bible has some offensive war language as well, but the torah has a defensive protocol. It isn't a coincidence that when Jews launch terror attacks they are an anomaly.

the message is going across the website: www.MohammedDressup.com will be no more Inshallah

You know, you are waaaay too serious. Tell me, what would you do if I drove you up to the datacenter, took you inside, and opened the cabinet where the server sits that holds the Muhammed Dressup site?

Do you really think Mohommed needs you to defend him? Do you think Jesus needs you to defend him? I dont know what your prophet went thru when he was alive, but nothing can humiliate Jesus more than what he went thru the hours before he died.

Right now, here is what I see in a difference between Islam and Christianity.

Islam is about revenge and punishment.
Christianity is about forgiveness.

I am not Muslim, I dont care about Muhammed. I dont have to follow the rules of your holy book or leaders. I have free speach, it is my right as defined by the laws I live under. I have the right to say what I want and when I want, and I have the right (in Texas) to defend myself with lethal force if someone really and truly believe what I said is worth attacking me.

And if Muslims dont like our laws and rights, then you are free to move to a country that believes as you do. Nobody in any religion, consulate, or government can take that site down. You might as well accept that fact. If the server Admin is Muslim, he "might" take it down for you.... in which the site owner will move to a server where the admin doesnt care two cents about Islam or Muslim beliefs.

This is a majority Christian country, and still nobody has been able to take down such sites as the "dressup Jesus" or "swearing Jesus".

Want to get religious? Hate and revenge are evil sinful emotions. Forgiveness is a good religious act. Might as well get over it and go the "forgive and forget" route because someone can put up a site with Muhammed running around in a pink laced light blue polka dotted bikini with Osama as his girlfriend having a bombworks strip poker boob dancer party.... and there is nothing you could do about it.
 
i am not promoting hate. the thing that trigfers hate are websites like the ones above. Like is said, I may be 15, but that doesn't take away my so called 'freedom' that you have!!!

Also, when our Prophet PBUH was defaced by your 'funny' cartoons you expected Muslims to laugh and be civilized and all that, but when Prince Harry in England wore a Nazi costume to a fancy dress party he was expected to apologize. wheres the 'freedom'??
