I'd also like to thank the various opponents of Everybody Draw Muhammad Day. I was on the fence over whether participating in it would have been a good idea before reading your responses. The lack of any intellectual security when it comes to religious matter or plain maturity observed in the apologists here has convinced me that the whiners deserve to have it etched into their brains that intimidation won't work.
As though you needed the external validation.
I don't see how I've tried to intimidate. My position is that anybody who does something just because it's offensive to someone else, is a prick.
What i mean by that is, if you participate in "draw muhammad day", that, to me, says that you are the kind of person who gets off on being offensive.
And that this means, by extension, that you are a self-absorbed jackwagon.
And i said "if".
I mean seriously. It's like waving your penis at nuns just because you think they are too uptight about sex.
What do you honestly hope to gain? Who does this benefit?
Sorry, but I don't enjoy offending people, and I have every intention of participating in this. You're looking at this in entirely the wrong manner, using analogies that are not relevant in the least bit (nuns? really?). No offense intended, btw... But-
Only Muslims are not supposed to draw Muhammad . By forcing us to follow this, it is
Islam forcing its values onto our society. Muslims have no right to do this to us. It is not as simple as trying to offend them for the sake of it. It is us exercising our right to not live under their yoke
