[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But if you don't even believe in such rubbish, can't understand why you can't dismiss such people anyway.[/quote]

I can't dismiss them. Because they will come to me and force aspects of their beliefs on me. For example, I mentioned I can't draw caricatures of Mohammad without being fearful of my safety, or my first amendment rights. Whether I am for or against abortion, some people vote on this issue based on their religious belief, these votes turn into laws, which directly impacts what I can or can't legally do. And of course as it has been pointed out repeatedly, we can't get any politicians elected if they claim to be atheist.

So no, I can't just dismiss them because they won't let me dismiss them. They insist on imposing their views on non-believers.  [/quote]

You want free and unfettered ability to draw denigrating pictures of an individual highly respected by 1.6 billion people. You wish to draw pictures of him insinuating he is a pedophile. You wish to draw cartoons of him as a sex obsessed individual. You want to present him in drawing as a man who abused women by denying them rights. You aren't concerned with the opinion or feelings of the 1.6 billion. Those 1.6 billion, in stark irony, would never draw caricatures or cartoons denigrating your beloved prophets or God.  In fact, they have such respect for Mary, Jesus, Moses, and Isaac that they hold them in honor, equal to the prophet of their own religion.

Those who voice objections though violence are not acting in accordance with Islam. A pious person is generally a peaceful person. Don't let what fanatics or extremists do define your education about Islam.

Thanks for confirming that you do not feel that I should be free to me drawing a caricature of your prophet. I don't give a rats ass why you feel this way, the fact that you feel this way is proof positive that I cannot dismiss your belief in Islam, as been previously suggested, because you won't let me dismiss it. You insist that I follow your rules that are derived from your religion.

As for whether people who object through violence is in accordance with Islam, you have your interpretation, other believers have theirs. There's enough people who claim to be true believers of Islam who do object through violence that this is at least a point of contention, and not as clear cut as you claim.[/quote]

Never said you couldn't draw caricatures. Re-read. Caricature away to your hearts content. But ask yourself this - does it make you feel good to hurt 1.6 billion people? Why denigrate their beloved prophet when they are not denigrating yours? 
And...White supremacists express hatred for other racial groups. Doesn't mean all whites are supremacists, does it? A German singlehandedly led a killing spree on 6 mil Jews, but doesn't mean all Germans want to kill Jews. Don't get trapped into slippery slope thinking. [/quote]
