Convert to Christ and save your immortal souls from Satan. Wow. You are just as ignorant as they are. Both this comment and the happenings in the middle east prove that in our society, religon can oly stunt the progress of our growth. Going to court for 18 months just because you insulted a god that may only live in our imaginations is ridiculous. Freedom of speech is a right.
We should learn to respect everyone and their religion and values. Anyone who try insulting or degrading or disrespecting any religion or anyone, should think again if he/she really have some moral values that can lead to say that they are really human beings. Most of us have a religion by birth and we didn't acquire it with our own choice and by fair evaluation of right or wrong. But at least anyone disrespecting anyone's religion in any form is for sure not even close to knowing any truth for any religion.
Nobody should ever be forced to respect any beliefs they don't agree with.
Freedom of speech and expression is a sacred right and much blood and treasure has been spent by Citizens in the Western democracies to secure that right over the past 100 years. We cannot be forced back to penal consequences by those who wish to use the law to fine or imprison people for what they think or write, so long as they clearly do not incite violence which threatens any Soverwign State. This violent battle of harsh words from the so called "Christian Right Wing" across to "Islamic Fundamentalists" must be seen for what it is - Noisy Babble between people who simply cannot and do not wish to hear one another. Lets move to silence and the mood in which the Red Indian used to consider the Sacred - "We never argue about God" they said, we are part of Nature and all Nature is Sacred. Our Truth comes to us from the Old Ones through the Visions and dreams of our Elders. The is only one Universe, One World, One Reality, One God, One Divine, One Spirit,( among many spirits) and One Empty Space, which we all equally share. The law and our courts are no place for religious or spiritual debate. If you do not like what someone says, then ignore it.
