What will they come up with next? Imagine if this were Mohammed. The Muslims would literally freak out and start a war over this freedom of speech/expression.

I imagine for the most part Muslims would probably have the same reaction most Christians would have.
Of course, it's not a sin in Christianity to depict Christ at all - as it is with Mohammed in Islam - so probably a marginally bigger stink would be made.
Don't believe for a minute the Christian Fundies wouldn't be calling for blood every bit as loudly as the Islamic Fundies would, though.
Islam is not a fundamentally violent religion. Or rather, it is no more so than any of the "Big 3". (Read the Old Testament lately?) We forget in the West that we're dealing with fringe groups. We can separate the KKK from mainstream Christianity, but we can't seem to go the same thing with Al Quaida and mainstream Islam.

Yeah, you are probably right about that, Thorn.  |
