Draw Muhammad Day

I don’t think the idea is more to insult Muslims than to see how they react to other people’s views and opinions. An entire nations bays for a lady teacher's blood just coz she suggested the name Muhammad for a teddy, a film maker is killed coz he ‘dared’ to draw Muhammad, fatwas are issued against writers if ever they publish their interpretation of the religion, riots break out everytime even a lame comment is made on Islam…I really really feel that the world has had enough of such medieval fanaticism. I know there are good Muslims who feel uncomfortable with terrorism but I don’t see them on the roads anywhere in the world openly condemning such activities. Ensconced in the comfort of their homes and community and religion, most Muslims are loathe to challenge the mullahs who entice such religious violence…rather most of them believe blindly whatever the mullahs preach them in their religious schools and are happy to just flow along with the tide of religious intolerance. Childishly happy & proud in the belief that Islam is indeed the greatest religion, they are against opening their mind to other people’s way of life or to any analysis of their religion. They have preconceived notions to which they hang on to for dear life. I don’t think you’ll find similar traits in any other major religion. Drawing Muhammad is a good idea as I believe it will be an opportunity to judge the maturity level of the Islamic community… if Muhammad is indeed a prophet, would a mere drawing be of any consequence to his position? If Islam is indeed the greatest religion, then can it be so frail that just a drawing of Muhammad can bring it down like a pack of cards? If the Islamic world just ignores this one without even a murmur, I’m sure the reactions from the other side too will peter out gradually. In today’s global scenario we have to respect others if we expect the same from them.

Take my stick figure above but add a pitch fork horns and a tail. Oh wait that is someone else, but they sound some much alike though.

Gewcew, I was just about to tell you that Laglen had a drawing (she's even taking lessons), but then I saw Laglen already posted. I can't draw...and I wouldn't have a clue how to draw little Muhammed stick men, but I'd sure love to... Laglen, are you going to share your drawing with us?
