Charlie Hebdo vs Russian Orthodox Church

[JesusHChrist]

Adding to the chorus (ok, pretty much just the Muslims, Catholics and now the Russian Orthodox) of religious leaders decrying mockery of their various faiths, we have this guy, looking like an extra from Game of Thrones, wearing his unmockable get-up and super-serious silly hat:



complaining in what I assume is a whiny voice:

"The cartoons of Prophet Mohammad are childish caricatures compared to what this publication allows itself in mocking the feelings of Christians," Kirill said in an excerpt of the sermon broadcast by Rossiya 24 state television.

"Today, in saying 'no' to terrorism, killings, violence, we also say 'no' to the inexplicable drive by a certain group of people to deride religious feelings," he said.

In response I say, just say 'no' to being deferential to someone's invisible best friend(s) and making their feelings sacrosanct.

Inexplicable drive? Absolutely necessary.

If people get so offended by a comic then they need to rethink on their beliefs and quickly.

You must admit, he has a nice hat.

Must be proof that god loves his sorry ass.

If I ever became like a Roman emperor, and played chess (to the death!) with real humans, this sumbiatch could be a right proper King on the board.

How about....... Fuck you. Twat.

The bible and the Quran are infinitely more offensive than any cartoon. They both say I am going to hell to be punished. And I deserve it. What could possibly be more demeaning and insulting? Not only that, they are claiming their God himself is making these judgements, and they still worship it.

However, I couldn't give a fuck because I am a grown ass man who doesn't cry because some idiots have written mean things about me and men of my ilk, stamp and kidney. But if they want to complain about offensive cartoons, they need to clean up their own house first. Hypocrites, as usual.

They don't want to be offended by cartoons, and we're not allowed to be offended by their holy books. These christians are doing their best to show that christianity is not so different from islam. They're just two sides of the same coin.

Now look at this guy.

He has a shitty hat. Clearly, he's going straight to hell. Where does he get off thinking he can wear a lousy hat like that?

[robvalue]

I agree. Let's take the focus off cartoons, and put it on hats where it belongs.

"You can't mock my religion!"

"Your religion sucks donkey balls."

Easy.

Piker. A wannabe silly hat if ever there was one.

What did you expect from the country where opposition is illegal?

I just realised god is a lot like Putin. One more reason to dislike him. (...If I disappear it means the KGB found me)
