Today (Jan 8, 2015) USA Today's Opposing Views posed an article by Anjem Choudary entitled:
Why did France allow the tabloid to provoke Muslims?
Choudary is described as "...a radical Muslim cleric in London and a lecturer in sharia."Read the editorial but the answer to that question should be obvious to everyone in the Western World: Freedom is an inherently offensive state of existence. No matter what you may believe, there will be someone who will ridicule it. Someone will burn a Koran, dip a Crucifix in urine or photoshop the Flying Spaghetti Monster into the creation image of the Sistine Chapel. However, as HL Mencken wrote, "..the razor edge of ridicule is turned by the tough hide of truth." If you really think what you believe is true then what is there to fear? Your pet theories or dogma will survive if truth is really on your side.
Muslims who cannot stand to have their peculiar neuroses ridiculed deserve to be shot by their intended victims.
