  • Aaaaahhhhhhhhh.... This is another reason i love being a MUSLIM. and MOHAMMED is our beloved most respected human being to ever step on this earth and his message will be here 4 decades and decades.. Despite what this fag draws and what you write ISLAM will 4ever grow and 4ever be the most honoring, beautiful,peaceful way off life religion then any other... ALHMDILLAH..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @1yellowbowties fuck you, you brainwashed cunt, fuck allah and mohammed in the ass

  • @syh11s029 I don't even know why you commented on my post,like i don't give a f*** about ur 3year old mind and opinion, by the way retard Allah is God in arabic.. get a life and save your old one.. dushbaggg

  • @1yellowbowties, just read the second sura in the Qur'an and you'll find that Allah has a strong distaste for non-Muslims, and wishes to send non-believers like me to eternal torment in hell. This aspect of the Qur'an offends me, and I'm offended that Muslims pretend intolerance against non-Muslims in the Qur'an doesn't exist, but I'm not protesting it. I think it's only fair that we can offend each other on equal terms.

    Let's learn to disagree peacefully.

  • @PM011 if you got to the second sura you should of finished the whole Quran, there you will find more then what you jump to .you will find that we are all equal however the blind and the see are not the same. and ever 'holy book' has chapters that talks abt the disbelievers and there torment.

  • @1yellowbowties Thank you, but I already have. I've read many translations, many tafsirs and hadiths. It still didn't change my view. Like you say, all "holy books" encourage mistreatment of unbelievers. Lars Vilks does not in any way encourage violence against Muslims. He called for a debate, stating that ideas should not be allowed to dominate other ideas with force and intimidation. The Qur'an does incite violence on many occasions, with support from the prophets that came before Muhammad.

  • @PM011well maybe you should skip the translated one's & read the Quran that way it was brought down.Theres a million ways translation goes wrong.& by your interest in Islam,U should read more on stories of how Muslims don't make jokes or mock or draw pictures of a person and claim its a Prophet like this fag did. B have much pride and love for who and what we believe so no this is not ok. & no this is nt freedom of whatever,cuz he did this 2make Muslims upset & 2 see how they would react duhh

  • @PM011 well mayB U should read the Quran the way it was brought down in Arabic.i write 'holy books' cuz there not in the way they were brought down 2 Moses & Jesus.U should know that since U claim to have read the Quran/tafsirs/and translations..?this is nt of him making a point of watever this is a old fag making alot of ppl angry. If nt then why is he under a rock scared?? U can't just shoot and think u can slide.

  • @1yellowbowties, Sorry but the "read it in Arabic" argument is not realistic, and it's a cheap excuse too. Even those who do read Arabic know the Qur'an is not perfect in every aspect, but all it takes is to being able to look beyond the sugar coating of religious indoctrination.

    You are just repeating the same bigoted attitude shared by your fellows. You believe that your beliefs are more important than others. If you are upset by criticism it's your job to respond in a civilized manner.

  • @PM011 actually the Quran its perfect from the first letter 2 the last,u gotta have some sense to understand it the way its meant not do to lack of knowledge.if you read the bible and torah u will also read abt the disbelievers.so in this case its ''lets just make Islam look bad''change UR mind or not,i really dn't care it's a free world believe even in a tree not my bizz or job to change that.yes,Islam is the religion.& if im upset about anything, i can handle it the way i want civil or not.((8

  • @1yellowbowties, yes the Qur'an is perfect - for Muslims. Perhaps you are familiar with the phrase "There is nothing but Allah"? This is the essence of the Islamic mindset - Islam comes first, everything else second. How are non-Muslims govern under sharia law for example, or those who dissent from the religious law? Such ideology is not relevant in modern society because we have better solutions that means greater freedom for everyone, as long as we agree to allow others to disagree.

  • @PM011 the thing is for non Muslims, you focus on the littlest thing ever to have a cow about it.& the law is good enough you get what you deserve, life is not to fool around with. look at the Arabic world, it has all religions and races, but it's the lowest in everything ''normal'' (drugs,aids etc.) any i feel you are off subject how can you go from this guy 2 the Quran to watever you tried to hav a point abt in the last reply

  • @1yellowbowties, the Arabic world is not "lowest in everything" mind you.

    If you look at rates in literacy, education, human development- peace- and quality-of-life indexes, women's status, corruption, and crime, you'll see that the Arabic world does not score well at all. This is not me saying this, but statistics from UNESCO and UNDP among other unbiased sources.

    In fact, it's actually secular countries void of religion that score best in all areas. Help yourself and get your facts straight.

  • @PM011 didn't ur mom ever tell u don't believe what you always hear, once u live in a Arabic country then you can say what you have experienced. yea there's some who r happy,sad rich,poor educated and not.. but again look at the whole world u will c that in every country has the highs and lows.

  • @1yellowbowties, my parents where clever enough to explain to me why I shouldn't believe everything people tell me, especially if what they claim comes from blind faith. Peer-reviewed statistics is not blind faith though. The statistics I mention shows average rates, that means that those who score low have more lows than highs, and vice versa. I'd love to visit Mecca some time, but I'm not allowed to since Muhammad himself forbid non-muslims within the city...

  • @PM011 blind faith you must be talking abt yours.. no1 held a shotgun 2 ur head and said convert. 2bad you won't ever get 2 visit Mecca)): i'll send u a postcard if u want. poor ya.Saudia Arabia is a religious country and Mecca is a holy city, you really think they want tourist that happen to b non believers, 1 reason is mockery and freedom of shity quotes like what you hav been doing. Saudi Arabia chops heads off they just don't let people get away in ignorance and stupidity..

  • @PM011 is this ever gonna end.?

  • @1yellowbowties, anytime you want my friend ;)

  • @PM011 and yeah THERE IS NO GOD BUT ALLAH AND MOHAMMED IS HIS MESSAGNGER& ISLAM IS THE RELIGION AND THE QURAN IS THE HOLY BOOK. SO YEAH I AM WAY BEYOND THAT PHRASE..((:

  • fags all y assholes are a bunch of hiv-infested fags. oh, upset about my language. freedom of speech!!

  • Hahaha argsvenne <3

  • this man has no respect or knowledge of the prophet Muhammad(pbuh) and is making a very disrespectful mistake. But it is not worthy of death besides he is already dead just not buried yet

  • @s8peed Mohammed was a pedophile who fucked a 9 year old girl. And he needs to be made fun off as much as possible. And you can continue dreaming of your 72 virgins.

  • How dare this man disrespect dogs like that. Dogs are cute and obedient companions, muhammad was a baby fucking pedophile.

  • Lol, what u dumbfucks don't get is that this guy sucks and wanted attention for his shitty pictures.

  • This man says, please be constructive !? I didn't notice that sweedish are sooo ignorant that they didnt think their act are more destructive to themselves.

    Thank god , that they less intelligent people here in sweeden such as lars Vilks living in sweeden as a living proof of a stupid person i ever known. ...and called himself an artist ??!... wtf

  • If u dont need to insult muslims, y do u do it. Just draw ur mom as a dog its still freedon of speach

  • there are only 1 type of people in the world who would die for there religon. witch are muslim................ So watch out vilki ........... muslim are on jihad to kill you, you old cracker. I wish god give me this chance to kill you basterd.

  • @loverboy4cutegir there not muslim you cock

  • Nobody is above criticism or mockery.

  • Viva Lars Vilks!

    Ex-Muslim.

  • @ignatei fuck u jew

  • Swedish will be treated as SERBS in Kosovo. Cleansed killed ghettoized. That is the future for SWEDES.

    You wanted it you go it ...

  • Muslims are like most other people. Islamists are as well. Unfurtunately !

    People live by their beliefs do not take time to investigate and authenticate or refute what they were told from childhood or learned in there early lifes.

    Everybody believes something. If you don't you're probable the only on the planet who doesn't.

    For example you could believe; There could be no God, there is a God, God are many, God is everywhere, that we went to the moon, we didn't, there are aliens and so on.

  • لا اله الا الله محمد الرسول الله

  • we will play ur dirty game and in the name of freedom of speech we will take over Europe and then kill all of u fucking "artists" who insult religions n prophets to make a living .

  • @nagamora No, you won't. You will get comfortable with high European standard of living, and in a generation or two you will slowly begin to abandon your old beliefs and just relax and enjoy the show.

  • @Christmasgoat u don't get to make that call , funny it's been 5 generations of immigrants now n every generation has gone more religious than the previous . watch?v=JNZkM3tJ-Ns .civil war is all there is for europe's future .

  • @nagamora Nah, you'll eventually slow down and lazily and half-assed celebrate our traditions, like christmas, 'cause your kids want gifts like the rest of us. Hey, the most of us don't believe in that jesus-crap either, we just like to hang out, eat good food and open presents. You'll get there, you'll see.

  • @nagamora Thats very islamic. Believe in what i believe or we will kill you. Well fuck you, why dont you believe in flying spaghetti monster?

  • @AL7X7 IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • Well the immigrants just arrived, they have no idea how a secular system works. So they gotta be educated on how to put up and shut up (like we westerners do).

  • HAMsandwich - YES!

    MuHAMmed - NO!

    Long live Lars Vilks!

  • I am not really a fan of Lars Wilks work. To be honest - i don't like his stuff.

    But - he has right to do it. Freedom of speech. He isn't calling on killing people, burning the mosques.

    Why would anyone want to kill him??

  • @Yosh997 Exactly. I could care less if he was Hitler himself. Freedom of speech is more important than that.

  • @ToxinalX ok freedom of speech is but people take it to far

  • kafir dogs n pigs

  • @manofcraft Was dogs and pigs meant as an insult?

  • @manofcraft Was dogs and pigs meant as an insult?

  • @Christmasgoat Nope, people just took it as one.

  • Hi, every one, dont blame muslim or Islam, Its a peacful religion, why people are hating islam and there leaders, please think first what muslim say?

    Acturally we can also think why man created and the univers, is it long last, what vl happen after death, is there any thing else .........

  • @ahmfazly Peaceful? Hahahaha thats fucking hilarious. Islam is backwards and not suited for western society. It stopped maturing 500 years ago.

  • jaja...slutt og snakk skit og vær tøff over nettet,,,Begynn og ta det ut i gatene...Jakt ned muslim apene og vis dem at vi nordiske mener alvor.Støtt lars vilks og vis dere som nordiske menn.Aldri frykt disse apene.Vi nordiske er langt mer overlegne..og burde ikke finne oss i og ha slike aper rundt oss lengre.Liker muslim apene det ikke...så skyt dem i fjeset.Så enkelt er det.Strid blir det uansett.Finn dere i det og godta det..og forebred dere på det.Da blir alt så mye mer enklere.14/88

  • @AL7X7 No, the bomb was set off by a religious idiot who didn't care about who he endangered. If I was a religious man I would hope he burned in hell. However, since I'm an atheist I just think it's sad that he wasted his only life on a lie.

  • fuck you both...you should be careful of what comes out from your dick sucking mouth

  • Swedish draw, Muslim kill. That's fair.

  • if you dont accept freedom of speech.... travel back you fcking prick!!

  • @Anusius go suck on a cock

  • The one and only reason this is a problem, issue is quite simple: we got muslims and other parasites in this country. Gas them or send them home.

  • Comment removed

  • @liveforfunk Orah to that!

  • this man is not an artist, he's out to provoke people and that's his only goal. he's making a martyr of himself hiding behind freedom of expression.

  • @ytspenning123

    It's important to provoke people. If nobody ever provokes you, then you get the idea that it's illegal for anyone to make you angry. This is why it's important to wipe your dirty ass with prophet mohammad's beard.

  • It was a good cartoon depicting Mohammed( my shit b upon him) as a dog..

  • @xinic12

    I believe in one thing and that nothing will happen to the dignity of the person about whom u people are making cartoons and giving filthy coments

  • @majid366 i don't c any dignity in marrying a 6 year old and having sex at 9 who u claim as a messenger of god....U think nothin will happen but ur brothers all over the world very much take pleasure in slaughtering innocents who got nothing to do with cartoons....so much for the religion of peace...i am sorry did i say peace????.....gotta b religion of hate and intolerance..

  • ah, so what has he gained by doing such stuff? polarize the opinions thats it

  • If we had known their radical routs maybe assimilation would have been the best choice. Tell all who come here that we don't tolerate religions. They only lead to bad behavior, hatred, and wars. And besides, everyone should know that the god in the bible and the quran is not a magical god, its a being from another planet.

  • If there's any group who has a reason to be offended by the cartoon, it's dogs.

  • the show wont show the cartoon, pussies.

  • If you draw pictures of Jewish rabbis as greedy and bloodthirsty racists...Is that FREEDOM OF SPEACH? I don't think so...you'll get punished even if you made that on artistic purpose. ;)

  • @Nordicmoslem And the punishment is what? Swedish artist Lars Hillersberg often did Jewish caricatures, and he even got a government funded life-long salary for his artistic work! Has anyone ever got killed by doing that? Nah, I don't think so...

  • In my country we respect each other religions whether you are Muslim, Christian, Hindu or Buddhist . We don't talk sensitive things like this as you are. You don't use "FREEDOM OF SPEECH" as an excuse to do hate speech whatsoever reason you stand for.

    to Muslim hatters, you should learn some respect by start stopping to use the word FUCK YOU dll". Try to imagine if your god (Lord Jesus) is in front of you and you keep using that word against your Muslim friend...Will he be proud of you?

  • @glonzai2005 I agree, we should avoid insulting eachothers, even if we don't agree. FREEDOM OF SPEACH is also limited. Here if you question Jews or their history there is NO FREEDOM OF SPEACH anymore, but its ok to insult muslims as much as you want. This is not respect.

  • @glonzai2005 In my country we have the right to question autority, political or religious, by using words and pictures. We have no laws against blasphemy, and I will continue to question authority!

  • Fuck sand niggers.

  • what hate speech give an example 

  • As much as I defend freedom of speech - I also defend critisism of speech.

    My critizism is: If the goal was for Vilks to start a discussion about islam - how much has he really succeeded? I can't see that the be or not to be of religion has increased since this - at least not on a level of discussion. All this brought to the world was anger, death threats, and possibly even more polarization between religious people and non-religious people. Was it really worth it...?

  • @Murgroena Yes it was.

  • "You must bring the hot potato" =)

  • WE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT UNTIL ALL OF THE WORLD IS UNDER THE RULE OF ALLAH!

  • @aladarbaljihad And we will be there to stop you with words, or as a last resort, with violence. Your fascist views will lead the world to a new Dark Age.

  • So the imim means freedom of speech is a good thing, but you should not use it?

  • mohammad sucks the hairy black cock of the tranny aisha.

    <(;{ )--l----< mohammad is sad allah is cheating on him with al-zarakwi and saddam hussein!

  • Muslims are fucking brainwashed

  • @Ermaxproductions

    so are the swedish peapol!

  • @Ermaxproductions really,are they?

  • @Ermaxproductions Not only muslims, most religious ppl are...

  • @Ermaxproductions Muslims are fucking human.

  • @ToxinalX Muslims are almost like ants. They don't use their own brain, they have this "quran" which they mindlessly follow without giving any thought to logical thinking. Actually the only thing that separates you from the ants is that ants don't believe in magical skydaddies

  • @pedarikarhu Well, Thank you. I'm not a muslim though, but an atheist born a christian.

  • @Ermaxproductions fuck u

  • Let another Mohammed Bouyeri

    Get the hands of this pig

  • @aladarbaljihad Why?

  • @r4sk3n Varför är han dum?

  • fuck lars pig ! i wish this pig dies in the most painful way ! if i can kill him ! it will be my HONOUR !

  • @MrActiveX It would be my honor to have you put in jail for threatening a man's life.

  • fuck Lars Vilks his ugly old gay man

  • "Move to western societies, we couldn't live in ours - CHANGE western societies, they are wrong!" -Muslim

  • @tttc

    well said D:

  • Religious people have too much time on their hands...always doing ritual things...yadda yadda, meet here on this day..do that on that day...Its all horse shit....religion is for the truly lost in our society. Some do use it as a means for support or inspiration to move forward, which is good....but beyond that. ITS BULLSHIT!

  • I really wish the people who cant accept our secular vaues would simply leave our countris and go home.

  • This is what happens if you try to integrated from cultures which haven´t the tradition of freedom of speech. Many people died for this right in Europe. This Imam from Iraq may speak fluent swedish, but he will never understand what this really means. By the way muslims worldwide did what the cartoons critized being violent.

  • the problem is that its all on the muslims terms

  • Migrants who come to Sweden should realize it is probably the most secular and liberal society there is. People are free to moch religion, religious leaders and God/Gods, profets and whatever. It has been a long tradition to do so, and people usually don't care. But in recent years we've had a huge influx of muslims, and suddenly there are death threats and attacks against anybody saying anything negative about Islam. This can't be tolerated. Why move to the most liberal country in the world?

  • If they ban cartoons we should ban the quran for its hate speech.

  • @Ramshobraja Which "hate speech", exactly? And please give me Arabic tafseer, not English "translation", because you seem to be so savvy with the true meanings of the Qur'an, not the mindless drivel that Western media insists is the true meaning of the verses.

    God bless.

  • @Ramshobraja maybe you should learn to analyze texts and not pull verses out of context you idiots. if u should ban the quran you should ban the torah, the bible and any other abrahamic texts. retard.

  • @niggerfuckshitreborn I have read the Quran. The whole shitty book. There are THOUSANDS of verses praising believers and punishing nonbelievers. THe whole theme of the Quran is how unbelievers are going to hell and believers are going to heaven. Try again. Your filthy religion belongs in the toilet. Prophet Muhammed was a pig.

  • @Ramshobraja well obviously there are verses praising believers and punishing nonbelievers? so what? that shouldnt affect an atheist in anyway. all the abrahamic religions believe that. you're a dumb fuck. indian cocksucker.

  • @niggerfuckshitreborn You stupid Mohammaden. Here are the violent and hateful verses in your shit book the Quran- 48:29, 98:6, 8:55, 3:85, 4:150, 58:22, 8:60, etc. Many more where that came from. Your prophet Muhammed had a pig for a mother and dog for a father.

  • @Ramshobraja yeah yeah, reading verses straight without context is a method used by many unintelligent retards like yourself. do yourself a favor and get an education. like i said earlier you can find those "hateful" verses in ALL ABRAHAMIC holy books. so shut the fuck up and and accept that youre hatred towards islam is solely based on your muslim neighbors and that it is pure racism and has absolutely nothing to do with islam. you were brought up to hate muslims.

  • @niggerfuckshitreborn Moron. There isn't much context of the Quran. There are no full stories in there. It is simply a book of sayings and commandments.

  • @Ramshobraja yeah you're completely right im so sorry.. the numerous professeurs ive had during my 5 years of higher religious science were all retarded and you're right. Instead of listening to my professeurs ill listen to you're factless statements. youve shown me the light dear friend and i will never forget you.

  • @Ramshobraja and ill disregard the fact that there ARE stories in the Quran, which i can EASILY prove, but no.. you're statement stands stronger than physical evidence.. you are a leader among men. i will follow you to hell and back you great man.

  • @niggerfuckshitreborn Not much of a story. Just some brief bits about noah, jesus and stuff copied from the Old Testament.

    What's there to prove? Read the damn book. There are hundreds of verses punishing nonbelievers. You are not allowed to make friends with nonbelievers. You are supposed to terrorise the infidel.

  • @Ramshobraja it's "reversed Racism" mate, People are afraid of being called Racist that's why we allow people "demanding" things from us. All Religous is fucking worse than green

  • freedom of speech yes. insult. NO.

  • This is the price you pay when you resettle Muslim pigs to a civilized country!-Europe and rest of the world should learn from Swedish experience! STOP IMPORTING ISLAMIC TERRORIST INTO YOUR COUNTRY! KILL THEM IN THE NAME OF ALLAH!

  • Weird?

    Insulting religion has become the art

    Shame on you

  • I live in North America, anytime i read a racial or religious clip on you tube, i see Europe ,more and more is invading by Islam. and also, this approach is becoming more and more violent . and sorry guys, most of the comments in here are provoking one another,including me, and this is so sad. "Aliens will laugh at us even harder "!

  • muslims make me WET

  • @BustyChickk

    Then you are obviosuly into bestiality.

  • No matter who tries to draw Muhammad peace be upon him) he cannot do so. Whatever his hands create cannot depict the face of someone he has never seen so let him who tries to defame the Prophet (peace be upon him) try as much as he wants, no matter how hard he tries, he will always be drawing who he THINKS is Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the greatest Prophet is far removed and exalted above the imaginary figure in a psychotic artist's head.

  • @ZaynC And yet, to us he was just a man. It's true that he was a historical figure, but he is not divine to us. It is our right to draw anyone, ANYONE, according to Swedish law. If it offends you, just don't look. If you want to question it, fine, do it peacefully.

  • @ZaynC If you want to draw Muhammad (shit be upon him) you must simply draw a faggot with a dick in his mouth since Muhammad (cum be upon him) was a gay son of a bitch.

  • @Kennystarfighter59 ur just a pathetic hater .and if i saw u in real life i will stap ur ass with a huge big fat katana sord . u idiot

  • What I dont understand is why muslims are offended? You as a muslim are not mohammed or islam. This is actually true if you read Irshad Manjis work on the trouble with islam, many muslims see their religion as their identity, and so the mohammed dog becomes personal. This is not Lars Vilks problem, he merely addresses it

  • Why fucking why are you importing these savages into EUROPE. SAVE EUROPE

    THE SECOND RAPE OF EUROPA IS COMING. Fucking Shame. you have no one to blame but yourselves

  • musilms are taking over every bloody where this is a joke wtf is wrong with european leaders do they not realise how dangrous this is and why havnt they all banned the burka it looks very threating also the so called prophet was a pedo who married an 8 year old wake up ppl!

  • He just wants 2 be famous & make it big by choosing te wrong path.He will die & no one will ever remeber him but 1400 and people still remember te Muslim prophet.

  • even aljazeera tv dont show the pics.. what kind of freedom of speech and news they have...?

  • @YTprick

    Swedish culture? Don't you understand that the world and Sweden is going to be more and more multicultural? There is no longer such a thing as "the culture and values of Sweden", though a very large percent of the countrys population is immigrants. In all respect, your opinion is just racist and based on no facts. The oppinion that you have is actually a very big problem in my country of Sweden, but the world won't develop untill people chance and stops being afraid of other cultures.

  • @Neessta Different cultures are great, multiculturalism is a disaster and always will be. Multiculturalism also is not inevitable, extreme mass immigration of racially and culturally alien people is not in any way desirable or normal.

    It's nice to think we can all hold hands and live amongst each other maintaining social cohesiveness. Few or no tensions, conflict and eroding of our unique cultures.  However, it is simply a fantasy and you have to be extremely dim to believe it's possible.

  • @StormSpirit20

    Okay you make a good point. I NEVER said i liked multiculturalism and believe it is good that the world develops in this way. Let's say, in my opinion every culture will be weaker and the multicultural society won't be as embossed of one strong culture as it would have been.

    I must conclude that you are the one dim. We have to think realistic one things. Should we alienate poor people escaping poverty because we wanna eat turkey at thanksgiving and dance around the xmas tree? NO

  • Comment removed

  • @YTprick True. If Islam is offended by one artist in one country then as a religion it's very much in trouble. Surely it's bigger than that.

  • Ok...No to violence, but I bet you will do the same to insult me back in words. And then I reply same, and you do the same again and again. So, wheres the end. Who will stop first? Is this resulting to peace living? Its better if one dont start it at all. Let us try to live peacefully, respect other peoples, their cultures, their religions, and their beliefs. Practice tolerances in everyday life.

  • @jentreyu57 When a religion promotes hate towards sexual minorities, forces little girls into marriage with adult men and tries to limit free speech, it does NOT deserve any respect - it deserves constant criticism until it changes for the better. Whether or not someone is offended by that criticism is meaningless; Islam must be forced to respect free speech and the rights of children and sexual minorities.

  • @CloserEnd I can't see any relevance of what you posted to Islam. Islam DOES NOT force young girls to marry old men. On the contrary, it prohibits it. As far as "free speech" is concerned, may you wish to define what you mean? If freedom of speech provokes hatred and anger, and was aimed not for intellectual purposes, but rather for attacking a certain group of people, then that is not called a FREEDOM SPEECH, but a HATRED SPEECH.

  • @Dr5alid89 I see you have serious difficulties understanding what freedom of speech means and contains. I'll try to clarify it to you. Speech does not need to be intellectual to be allowed freedom. Offensive, even insulting messages are tolerated under freedom of speech. However, inciting violence is NOT tolerated under freedom of speech. Saying: "Muhammed was a pedophile pig" falls under freedom of speech, while "I will kill you" does not. Can you see the difference now?

  • @Dr5alid89 And if indeed Islam prohibits old men from marrying young girls, why are thousands of little girls (as young as 8 or 9) still married to old men in Islamic countries, especially Saudi-Arabia (according to July 2009 report by Human Rights Watch)? Why are muslims not protesting against this, if this is indeed against Islam? Where are the riots, where are the death threats against Saudi imams? They are insulting Islam by willfully ignoring the prohibition you mentioned, aren't they?

  • @CloserEnd Dear CloserEnd, Freedom could be defined as"Not controlled by obligation or the will of another". hence, if one said"i'll kill you" or "you're a bad person", they all fall under the umbrella of freedom. Mind you, i strongly agree that neither the former nor the latter ought to be used. I respect freedom of speech and actions, but i also respect the responsibility that comes with it.

  • @Dr5alid89 The laws of my country define freedom of speech differently from how you perceive it. Here making threats is illegal, but insulting a religious figure is perfectly legal. It is that simple. There are also laws for freedom of religion here, meaning everyone can choose their religion and everyone can leave a religion without fear of punishment. Note that those same laws protect muslims who live here as well. It is those laws I'm following and defending.

  • @CloserEnd Dea CloserEnd, Thank you for clarifying all those issues with me. I also hope that I've been respectful and didn't insult you in anyway. If so, I do apologize, for the teachings of my Faith clearly state that One's right should always be returned, and if ever disrespected you please note I didn't mean to. I also respect the fact that you're both following and defending the laws of your country, and please understand that so am I for my faith.

    Thank you and may peace be upon you.

  • @Dr5alid89 There's absolutely no reason for you to apologize to me in any way - I haven't felt insulted by you at any point during this discussion. Our views might differ drastically, but you certainly have the right to question and criticize my opinions, and I have found some of your comments valuable and informative. That's one of the very reasons free speech is worth defending. I think we have taken more than enough space here and I need to get some sleep, but I might send you a PM later.

  • @CloserEnd As for the "right" tackle the Prophet, I clearly see it's unjustified if you wanted to show the dangers of radical Islam. The people you wish to stop do not resemble or represent the teachings of the Prophet. Hence, when attacking the Prophet, you're actually attacking the innocent Muslims that carry respect to other faiths as well.

    I can understand your point of view not more clearly. But please understand, Sir, that I, myself, carry only respect to others around me.
