I bet there's another one or two out there...

Such as one of my Muslim friends , who is a liberal . . . . . .

Don't you get it - I am not against Muslims , but I am against Islam as defined by the Quran and Hadith .

Well... given that they don't want their prophet or God ever depicted anywhere, this is unsurprising. Arrest of the author is a bit harsh though.

A bit harsh !? It is a suppression of the freedom of speech ! It amounts to an imposition of Islamic law on a secular country ! It basically means - "We dislike her , so arrest her !" !

fanatics can DIE for all I care. Let the bombs fly. Unfortunately we don't have smart bombs that only kills fanatics, if that was realistic, I'd be putting all my money on those bombs so we can afford launching them. Kill every single one of them fanatics, regardless of side.

I don't see what this has to do with freedom of speech. It's a school textbook, not a piece of literature.

"I am not an anti-Semite!", he told The Guardian, "I have a great respect for the Jewish people." He maintains that the reptilians are not human, and therefore not Jewish...

Why not start a thread on how whacko Hindus tried to burn down movie theatres screening "Water?" Or about the denial of freedom of speech to the makers of "Fanaa?"

And you still posited a law catering to a specific religious group (the Hindus) in another thread? What kind of secular country do you want to run?

The Miami-Dade school board has banned a children's book about Cuba because it isn't sufficiently anti-Castro enough for the Miami Cubans' tastes.

One which is a Hindu state except in name .

Muslim law forbids any depiction of the Prophet. If they didn't object to a positive depiction, they'd be hypocrites. The fact that they're not hypocritical, at least in this instance, puts [Muslims] far beyond most religious types.

I told you already - Hindus , Buddhists , Jains , Sikhs , Parsees , and others of this type are welcome , and that too for historic and humaniatarian reasons .

At least they're consistent.

And any state that combines religion and politics in any shape way or form is naughty.
