Here is my view. I'll start with an analogy. In Christendom, there is a commandment to not take the Lord's name in vain.
For the purpose of this arguement, I will just use CP as an example, since we are all familiar with it, and examples should be easy to verify.
There are instances in many threads of taking the Lord's name in vain, either verbatim, dancing, funny spelling and even on a popsicle stick(!!)
I won't say I am insulted, since that accomplishes nothing, but it does make me feel very uncomfortable. I wish the filter would be applied as I consider it far worse than any cusses. I love that guy, you know?
Now for my point:
1. I can't enforce my beliefs on those who do this
2. The name means nothing to non Christians, they probably don't even realize they are making me squirm
3. If I heard a fellow believer doing this, then I certainly should mention it to them.
And to tie it in with the cartoon:
1. Muslims have a right to be angry at other Muslims who make Muhommad images
2. Muslims should not care if others make Muhommad images.
