The thing is, I never said anything about fighting back. What I'm saying is that I find it strange (and absurd) that we've resorted to picking on religious figures who are either revered or respected by millions of people. As for blasphemy, I find it insulting as a Muslim that the life of Jesus pbuh is wittled down to a romantic comedy. you said something interesting in your post, that had there been no protest then the publicity would never have happened. that's very true. but what is the alternative? silence? i'm obviously against violent protests the likes of which were seen in a few cases throughout the Muslim world. But the Muslim world constitutes over a billion of the world's population; are we to base the concerns of all these people as emodied by the violent spirit of hooligans? there are ways and means of which to voice one's concern, and be they moderate or radical they will no doubt contribute to the publicity of the object. But at the end of the day, when the dust clears, at least people will know that it was not met with silence. the same way that violence breeds violence, the same can be said of silence. thanks for your comment :-) Blue, you wrote an interesting post.

From your post, its obvious that you feel that such movies are blasphemous. I would think of it the same way to be honest with you, Yet i dont think its the right thing to try to fight back against such movies.
