[Cronos]

I would go further and say that publishing those cartoons was a very un-Christian thing to do, and it set our struggle against Mohammed back

The Cartoons had nothing to do with Christianity -- it was published in a secular newspaper, in a very, VERY non-religious country: Denmark. So, don't link them to Christianity -- the muslimss are wrong to do that and so are you.

Secondly, I am not talking about the silly little cartoons -- those are symptoms of the wider problem that isIslam. We forgot about it in the 9th century and then had to fight a rear-guard action during the Crusades. We are underestimating the evil one now. The actions ofIslam ARE NOT the actions of God.

The Cartoons had nothing to do with Christianity

Our civilization has a lot to do with Christianity (still), and Christianity has a lot to do with respecting the dignity of the enemy. Insulting them is not fighting them, all it does is degrade ourselves.

The cartoons have this to do this with Christianity: the same yahoos that drew them will mock Christ with even greater relish, and some, as if to show us who is who in the secular culture, just did.
