My lil’ ol’ country of Denmark (Pop. about six mill.) has really made the international headlines, huh?
Let’s get a few facts rights before they’re spun outta shape, shall we?
It was a cartoon in a danish newspaper, “Jyllands-posten”,
(The JutLand Post),
depicting the prophet Muhammed,
which started this crapavalanche.
(As an aside:
Dave SilverGolem,
I’m quite piqued that you didn’t turn to your resident Dane for Info)
The problemo, see, is that supposedly Islam forbids any sort of iconography.
(Question:
So what? Those depicting him weren’t moslem… oh! Us that DON’T believe aren’t xempt from your assholian relic laws? Go whatever you like to do to yourselves.).

What the humping Gila-monster?

Nice to see there’s sense on either side of the ocean.

Their world’s changing too. Becoming more westernized. Even have Muslim female bloggers.

http://www.southparkstudios.com/show/guide.php?season=5

There, the prophet Muhammed, along with Jesus, Krishna, Buddha, Joseph Smith, Lao-Tzu, and “Sea-Man” helped save the world from David Blaine.

Jesus introduces Muhammed to Stan as “Muhammed, the Muslim prophet with the power of flame!” – he can shoot fire out his hands sort of like the emperor on Star Wars (sort of)

There’s even a picture from the episode on their website – he’s the fellow with the turban and the brown sash.

Why didn’t the Muslim world go up in arms and boycott Colorado? Or Comedy Central?
