Dear Richard,

Looks like Caryn has “I have to be right even if I have to change the subject to do so” syndrome. Amazing… still leaving comments after more than a year..

Btw, happy Passover!

Purvis – If you wish to be completely accurate: I went from June ’06 to Jan ’07 without comment, Hardly a year…still, the entire discourse begs the question of where religion had/has a right to be involved?

“In Islam we’re not even allowed to draw pictures of the Prophet peace be upon him.” I believe you made a good point. In Islam. that says it all. If you are not a follower of Islam you should not be subjugated to its rules. And when a network or publication refuses to show the images it is not out of respect for Islam, it is out of fear of reprisals and violence. After what happened to Theo Van Gogh is outrageous. But that is a different thread. Christianity had its period like this and it passed. It will pass with Islam too.

I think this photo is hilarious.. Why are muslims so offended by this photo ???? I am a catholic but, as I grow older (45 now) and see the world from mature eyes it is becoming obvious that there is no supreme being..I ask 1 question – if Mohammad or, Jesus truly loves us – why would they let their children kill 2500 people in the WTC attacks or, allow a mother to drown her 3 children Chicago ??? I am leaning towards science versus religion unless someone can answer this question with facts not, “Faith related”..

Christians = stop blaming the Muslims…
Muslims = trash that Koran, it is evil
Politicians = keep funding the space programs, this is where I believe we will find all our answers..
