No. Making fun of anybody’s religion is wrong, no matter how misguided or evil we may think that religion is.

It’s not a religion. It’s a fanatical Nazi fascist socialist nationalist ideology

[JRandomFreeper]

Nope. It's ok to make fun of a religion when it supports beheading.

I'm good with making fun (at the very least) of that fake religion that wants YOU beheaded.

Your statement is true if all religions are equally true, which is to say that all gods and deities, real or imagined are true. However, unless there is no God and all gods are imagined, your statement cannot be true.

To be sure, unless there is no God, you are wrong, and if there is no God, it doesn't matter who is wrong, including you.

Making fun of nasty violence is proper. Even when the perpetrators are driven by adherence to a religious text.

Contrary to far left political theory, all religions are not the same.

“Making fun of anybody’s religion is wrong,”

Why? Only truth deserves respect. Nutty magical beliefs do not deserve my reverence. Hopis say we came from a hole in the ground, Moslems have a laundry list of nutty beliefs, and I cannot mock the neo druids at Stonehenge on Solstice day? Africans run and hide from eclipses,,,

Most religions are simply false, and mockery is fine if they say crazy things. (like you cannot draw my God)

Is mohammedanism a religion or a political ideology?

That doesn't even make sense.

Islam is a murder cult, not a religion.

Considering you are living in Seattle, your understanding of Islam and their goals doesn’t surprise me.

You do know that their religion holds the record for number of people murdered, right? 100 million people have been killed by the followers of Islam. The Hindu Kush mountain range is named after a massive massacre of Hindus by Muslims. "Hindu Kush" means "Hindu Slaughter."

The Islamists have managed to beat even the Communists in mass death, and that is no small accomplishment.

The biggest Holocaust in World History

I suppose you support anti-blasphemy laws?

Nazism had a significant cult figure worship component, too - almost like a religion. I do hope that the mockery by Charlie Chaplain, the Three Stooges and countless writers and cartoonists didn't hurt Adolf's feelings too badly.

I hope FR shuts it down.

Freedom of speech is an essential right and I’d die for the right of FR to do this contest mocking a religion.

However, I am religious and my religion teaches me not to mock other faiths. My religion teaches me to treat others as I wish to be treated and I would like my religion to be respected.

Other faiths are fine for other people. My rabbis taught me to respect that other people have their own ways. One of the reasons I love my religion is that it doesn’t purport to be the only or the best. It only purports to be the best for ME.

The content of one’s character can’t be rationalized legally. The Klansman is printed in this country, and the guards outside the building have never been shot. Mocking religion is to be legally tolerated even if it is difficult, as It is, for blacks and Jews to tolerate such filth being printed.

If FR allows mocking of a religion that is also not a legal issue, it’s a content of one’s character issue. Same with this TX contest. It’s in bad taste but it’s perfectly legal and should be.

I was offended by Piss Christ and Book of Mormon. I defend to the death the artists’ right to create them, but I don’t think mocking a faith is ok if you just don’t like that particular faith.

Not a religion. It is a cult.

Making fun of another person's religion is not polite.

Killing people because they made fun of your religion is wrong.

Islam is not a religion. It is a socio-political system masquerading as a religion.
