I really am. The Hatfield\/McCoy entertainment of the Punch and Judy show between the Shalom speakers and the Salaam speakers was one thing. But this is just tired and old now.<\/p>\n<p>No offense, everyone&#8217;s god-form gets <a href=\"http:\/\/quinnell.us\/entertainment\/movies\/kevinsmith\/dogma\/images\/buddychrist.jpg\">mocked once in a while<\/a>. Hell, I will bring the same down upon myself now. I shall now bring the fury of not merely the Egyptians, but the Ancient Egyptians upon me. I now present <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apolo.net\/images\/sacrilege.jpg\">my mini two pane cartoon<\/a> on one of their divine.<\/p>\n<p>Why the Ancient Egyptians? Well or me it&#8217;s because I believe that I can study god forms and gain enlightenment in working with them, even when seeing them through the eyes of satire and humour. I guess radical fundamentalists can&#8217;t see this. No, it&#8217;s far easier to destroy the infidels than go about your own life.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s far easier to shoot an abortion doctor, punch a republican, beat up a geek, scream that he didn&#8217;t make the debatable touchdown, than actually try to see the world through your fellow human&#8217;s eyes; just like EVERY one of the old prophets taught. See, once someone disagrees with you; to hell with the teachings of your religion or philosophy.<\/p>\n<p>So, the extremists have taken their stand. Making fun of Mohammed by the Danish is bad. So&#8230; What do they do? I know, take it out on the Jews. The human race&#8217;s whipping post for 5000 years. (You are G-d&#8217;s chosen people. Chosen to get thrown out o this country, chosen to get murdered in this country, chosen to receive the ire of the people who don&#8217;t like Danish Newspapers) Yup. We don&#8217;t like Danish Newspapers and people making fun of our prophet, let&#8217;s go hurt some Jews. This is like the school bully driving 10 miles to the next town to beet up the same geek as last year, even though he&#8217;s moved and even though the geek didn&#8217;t do anything.
