When the Christians assert, “you wouldn’t say that about Mohammed” they imply that the reason many people self-censor is because of a political correctness that excludes Christianity when the actual reason for self-censorship is fear of violence. Much the way a person would remove a rainbow bumper sticker from their car, avoid certain clothing or statements, or modify their usual behavior when traveling in the Southern U.S. to lessen the chance of being beaten by the Christians (i.e., Baptists, Evangelicals, and Fundamentalists).

[...] As I’ve mentioned before, it seems that christians are not averse to riding on the coat-tails of islamists who might actually make good on their threats of violence. It seems that they’re content to equate the consequences of insulting christianity with those of insulting islam, yet they’re not so keen as to actually make any overt threats of violence, and even less keen to carry out those that they do make.

to be honest, I would be more than happy to see someone do the same about Mohammed…

I am intrigued why some theists have got their knickers in such a twist over this. Do they not like chocolate or something?

Incidentally, what’s the Catholic League’s position on the Danish cartoons?

I hear that the artist is selling bits of it on eBay. Perhaps the vatican can put in for a bulk order… ;-)

I’m sure this will be considered terribly irreverent and I’ll be told I’m going straight to hell, but that chocolate jesus thing got me going. I just cannot help thinking that those of the Catholic persuasion should be jumping for joy at the prospect of a chocolate jesus. I would think they’d be contacting the artist and putting in a standing order. (Just keep ‘em comin’) I’ve never had one, but I’ve been told by Catholics that the wafer (the one that represents the body of Christ)that they eat when they take communion is pretty disgusting. How much more fun would church be if that wafer could be replaced with some yummy chocolate?

There you see that, atheists aren’t against religion, here I am trying to improve it.
