And before we become too critical of all the "diaper heads" in the world who according to this forum are all of the same ilk, let's have a few middle eastern newspapers showing a depiction of Jesus Christ getting a blowjob from an 8 year old boy. Hmmm, what do you think would happen then? More invasions of countries by the "non diaper heads"? More torture by those same people? Or just a blanket statement that those people are ignorant beyond reason and always have been?
Funny how the outrage to some violence is so hypocritically chastised but to other forms, and even more in destructive intensity, is condoned because those doing the damage are the savours of all rights and liberties.

No it's not funny at all. It's a serious fact. The people threatening to do violence and actually doing the violence are the ones protesting against freedoms that we in the West take for granted. Those standing against them are supporting those freedoms.
In one sense you are correct. This is about more than cartoons. It is about much more. One only needs to listen to what the Islamists are saying. They do not hide their goal of global jihad, of reestablishing the Caliphate and spreading their "religion of peace" at the point of a sword.
Here are some questions for all who read these pages: Do you despise homosexuals? How about gender equality? Wanna do away with that? Do you think little girls should be forbidden to go to school? Do you hope that the death penalty is more strictly enforced, and that it is carried out by public beheading? How about seeing movies and flying kites--should kids be publicly beaten for that? Want to punish with beheading people who dare believe in Buddha, Jesus, or anything other than the strictest of Muhammadian orthodoxy? Are you really fond of dictatorship? Do you want to see an end to the separation of church and state? Should the government destroy ancient religious relics (like Buddhist statues, for example), because they offend Allah? If you answered yes to any one of these questions, you're gonna love the Jihadis.
As for the attempt to connect Christianity to pedophilia, there really is a difference between Catholic priests who committed these disgusting crimes against perhaps hundreds of innocent children, and Muslims who murder thousands of innocent people in the belief that they will get to have sex with dozens of virgins in Paradise. The difference is that no one doubts that the priests' crimes were grossly wicked and immoral. The priests themselves know the depravity of their actions. Church leaders condemn them in no uncertain terms. They have been punished by the Church and the legal system. No one defends their actions by saying God wanted them to do it or that the children deserved it. They are universally condemned. The same cannot be said for the Muslim savages who are now carrying out violence against people because of cartoons they find offensive. In fact, the opposite is true. It is their religion that (they believe) gives them the right to kill, burn, and terrorize all who offend them. In many parts of the Muslim world they are seen as holy warriors doing the work of Allah.
