A lot of people, including I, would strongly object to any censorship or ban of 
Satanic Verses or any other religious parody in this public forum.

There will also be people who will stand up to "correct" those who think they are 
"correcting" others. The self-righteous need to be shown that they are often wrong. 
Tariq, Marlon, George, Mervyn and Allwyn are doing a splendid job in that regard.

Blasphemy died more than 300 years ago in the civilized and free world.

Cheers,

Santosh
