But with that said, I feel like saying a little about the crisis of the Muhammed drawings. I live in Denmark, and have followed it closely. Luckily I wasn't one of the cartoonists. I think it was a bad idea, to make those drawings. I am not a religious person myself, but I know a little about religions, and for a muslim it is a double insult. First you must not make pictures of the human body, next, you must not make pictures of Muhammed. Notice that there are no human figures in islamic art.
And I think that it is a sad thing, that this whole affair has been so closely linked to the freedom of speach.
Freedom of speach is something that is made to allow citizens to criticize our government and the people in power, without running the risk of being thrown in jail, tortured or executed. Not to hurt our fellow men's religious feelings. And notice how this affair has been misused by politicians and people in power. It is all politics, and they have misused thousands of people in the islamic world who went amok without having ever seen any of the drawings.
It's absurd.
Sorry. I couldn't help airing my thoughts.
Your drawing is great though. It doesn't fall in the gap I talk about.
