When it comes to religious discourse, I always claim my right to offend and express my believes and sentiments about that belief.
But I won’t go out of my way to be disrespectful. This sort of thing does give atheism a negative image.
Yes you silly fool it WAS.
The subject was radical Islam and it's fundie Imams interfering with criticism of their religion thru comedy and media.
The garbage you espouse smacks of Apologetic Political correctness.
Which is unhelpful and has CAUSED the current issue with the posted article.
At no point was anyone wishing to threaten ordinary people of whatever religious persuasion.
Are you sure you were brought up to apologise for your existence/ belief system because you don't want to insult people??
I am secure in myself enough to realise that no one can offend me....Unless I wish it to be so.
Having said that ...leaves me free to speak my mind. I this upsets YOU then it is YOUR problem NOT mine.
Which leads neatly into the topic...If the "Muslims" whoever the fuck "they" are are offended then they don't have to watch!!
And anyway what ARE they doing watching South Park in the FIRST Place???
