I'm so glad the cartoons are now being shown everywhere, fuck you if you're too pathetic to be able to take a joke. It's not our fault or our problem. We want a free, civilised society, not one that lives in fear every day of persecution or death.
I don't give any religion a pass, not even Buddhism. You can find pockets of violence and bigotry there too.
All religions in our species history to a greater or lesser degree set up in group vs out group. You won't get rid of them, but once you accept it as divisive you can manage them better.
