I am saying every culture has its "hot buttons". Its not an issue of comparing and ranking them. But it is an issue of understanding and respecting them, of having some respect for all cultures. Which after all this, you appear to still have little. You still spin the defamation of Islam as "a cartoon". (Like Barney. Who doesnt like cartoons. La de da.) Do you understand that any graphic or iconic representation of the Prophet is forbidden in many sects of Islam? To you, would pissing on a crucifix at high mass at the vatican just be "a call of nature"? ------------------------ Yahoo!
