Default Re: No mohammed discussion?

Since every church (that I'm aware of) has a image of Jesus in some form then you would be an exception to the rule.

Scientology is different since it's the actual organized religion that does horrible things.

Again, this case is a group of extremists.

Is every Christian part of the Westboro Baptist Church and should be treated as such?

EDIT in response to your edit: Are there any hard and fast rules on what is considered blasphemous regarding the depiction of Jesus? I honestly don't know very much about either religion. I know in Judaism you aren't suppose to depict the human form (actually learned this in book parodying the life of Jesus which I only read the beginning of) and Jesus was upset by the Roman statues. Not having idols and whatnot.

Scientology is different because it does horrible things? Can I refer you to the Pope? And, I dunno, 2000 years of history?

I am not saying be hateful of Muslims, but poking fun at them is legitimate free speech, and silencing free speech with the threat of violence should be completely condemned. I think the only thing that would make the violence go away is to make images of Mohammad so common that it no longer is a big deal.
