No, it's not about terrorism. It's about slandering a religion. The Prophet didn't strap semtex to his body and blow anybody up. Hamas did and still does. Those cartoons single out Mohammed, not the nutjob in Iran or Palestine.

I'm Catholic. If I do something horrible, is the proper response cartoons about the Pope? Don't the people who do the Piss Christ exhibits use the same logic? Isn't this about personal responsiblity?

If you and a host of other Catholics did horrible acts in the name of the Catholic church and your fellow Catholics were at best mum and at worst complicit and cheering ...

...YES

I appreciate your position. Appreciate mine if you will.

Islam considers the deity of Jesus to be blasphemy. When muslims say "there is no god but allah"...they are saying Jesus isn't God.

Jesus is crucified over and over again...crucifixes are dipped in urine and it's called art. But in no way does it diminish Him. It doesn't hurt religion to make it stand in the white hot light of reason and thought...but islam refuses it.

Some people believe islam is a demonic cult and that muslims need to be liberated. Do you say no? To you say to those imprisoned by an insane cult that "no, it isn't right that we help you find the truth."

I suggest the islamic allah is not god...indeed, he is most likely Satan...do you think we should approve of his grip on poor muslims.

Your faith says otherwise.

The prophet mohammed was a rapist, pedophile, and a warmonger who slaughtered members of his own tribe.

His examples of violence, wars for territorial conquest and spreading islam by the sword is the legacy he left for millions of his followers. To them, he is "al insan al kamil" (the "perfect man"), whose example are recorded in the hadeeth, and whom muslims are to emulate.

Does the story of Abu afak ring any bells to you?

The glove fits.

Assuming for a moment that you're not a liar and a troll - a dubious assumption at best - we aren't at war with Catholicism. 

Mostly because Catholicism is a civilized religion.  A claim that [i]slam is incapable of making. 

Cardinals and Fathers aren't flying planes into buildings, teaching hate in Vatican square, and beheading anyone they can capture who isn't a Catholic.

When at war, it is of vital importance to keep your enemy off balance at all times.  Over 2100 years ago Sun-Tzu referred to it a disrupting the enemies alliances.

If your enemy is so pathetic that mildly satirical cartoons throws him off balance then, have at it.  You're stupid if you don't.

Please consider this...the One that created you loves you more than you can imagine. He also loves all His creation similarly.

If your religion is based on hatred, ask yourself...why would God be a God of hate. You are at a fork in the road. Who do you trust? A being that hates...or Your Father who loves you.

Allah demands your submission...God/Jesus wants your love. And He wants to tell you that he loves you. He loves you more than you can imagine...but you must choose.

"Seek and you shall find."

"The Prophet didn't strap semtex to his body and blow anybody up"...Correct the Prophet only murdered his enemies, plundered, and lusted after a 6 yr old, then raped her at 9 yrs........try reading a Koran, and the Hadiths before you make such an asinine post.

No, he just went around robbing caravans, having sex with 9 year old girls, raping women whose husbands and families he'd just killed, and ordering wholesale mass murder of anybody who opposed his agenda

Other than that, Mad Mo was a sweet guy
