Danish Cartoon depicts Muslim faith for what it is (NOW with added blasphemy!)

I have published one of the cartoons that the 12 brave men and women who got shot to death today by 3 crazy Muslim bastards have published in the past.

We must not let them silence us.

Keep poking fun at all religions and all things that amuse you.

It is your right to do so.

I have so far resisted publishing these hilarious cartoons but have now entered the fray and expect a bit of a backlash.

These cartoons rightly parody the Muslim religion. They depict the prophet Mohamed and the Muslim religion for what it is: violent, nasty, dictatorial, murderous, cruel and unworkable in the modern world.

The mere fact that the Muslim world raises itself up with death treats and carries out murders and bombings against those who dare to criticise the religion, show the "faith" for what it really is.

"Moderate Muslims", if they truly exist, should counter all these death threats and extreme views against people's democratic right to free speech by publicly defending rights to free speech instead of joining the Muslim bandwagon and proclaiming some new jihad against the Western world.

These cartoons are moderate in their message compared to the message of Jihad
pushed daily by Muslim leaders.




I wait with baited breath but don't expect condemnation of this extremism by the Muslim world.

  2. Thanks for the comments you 2 secret contributors.

    Of course I should be free to say what I want and when I want without having my head cut off or the threat of having it cut off.

    That is my point in this article.

    If you have a point of view that is different from other Muslims who are more strict in their beliefs then why should your life or children's lives be threatened for doing so.

    Drawing a Cartoon should be punished by murder?

    A religion that teaches those things, be it Muslim or any other is quite simply nuts.

    I must reiterate. The Muslim religion(to whatever devoutness) is incompatible with the Western way of life and they simply cant exist peacefully in such a society without conflicting with the trash that they are brainwashed with written in their Koran.

    Thanks again.

  3. your lives and your children?
    How do you think we feel?
    We worry waking up everyday wondering if the tank that just left will turn around and come back!

    What you've said is true in some ways extreamisim is bad but not all of us are them.
    There's Sunni's and Shia's who both bleieve in different versions of 'islam'
    Sunni's follow the quaran and what the mohammed said and shia is just... i cannot explain since it is so bad.

    But everyday we fear for our lives

  4. Hi Aisha,

    thanks for your comment.

    What can I say, I have some sympathy with you and the conditions that you might live in, if I assume correctly where you might be writing from.

    You sound quite intelligent, willing and open to reason.

    Let me ask you a question and I just want to be as direct as I can.

    Why do you follow a religion that allows all these, as you say, "bad" things to happen to its followers and those that are non believers?

    Cheers, Darren

  5. Brett, I am not religious at all. I prefer to think for myself.

    All religions are equally nuts.

    The Muslim religion DOES condone murder, in fact mass murder. It depends on how one interprets "defence" to arrive at the body count.

    I see reading books hasn't helped to broaden your outlook.

    I am a New Zealander and a huge fan of America.

    Thanks for your comments.

  11. Darren Richard,
    who ever you are, sitting in front of your little computer screen somewhere with hundreds of sheep in your backyard, you do not have the right to pass judgement on an entire religion based on your own narrow minded assumptions and false stereotypes which have been fed down your throat by the media. Islam is a religion of peace and unity. It is not in anyway violent, nasty dictatorial, murderous or any of the other vicious comments you laid upon it. I am not Muslim myself but i think it is my responsibility to clear up what people like you, with your limited perceptions of a religion that holds over 1.8 billion followers worldwide, say. Around every fifth person on this planet of ours is a Muslim, and if you are to suggest to me that every single one of them is a crazy evil religious fanatic that is wagging some 'holy war' against the evil west, i must tell you, you are horribly mistaken. Islam never tolerates unprovoked aggression and the Quran expresses a compassion for the innocent. The Quran states: "Let there be no compulsion in religion" (2:256)
    It is merely the actions of a small minority who have a false interpretation of the religion which you are choosing to base your judgements on. You are misguided from the truth and ignorant of your own limited views.
    Please wake up to yourself. You are an idiot and it's people like you that cause all the horrific problems in our world. I know this is just an insignificant comment on some blog, but please understand that this is not a small matter. This is a global issue. My advice: do some reading mate, maybe find out just a little bit about a topic before you just go off ranting your head off about nothing.

  12. You are doing some generalisations yourself Anon.

    "Islam never tolerates unprovoked aggression" you say, that is really what I am talking about. Muslim extremists use that as an excuse to kill innocent people, including their own.

    All religions are dopey, with dopey beliefs, and the Muslim religion is violent, nasty and venal. I know this because all I have to do is read for myself some of the atrocities committed in the name of the Muslim god.

    I am entitled to my opinion as you are to yours. The Muslim religion would not tolerate my view because they do not respect others views. I do.

    Thanks for your comment.

  13. We live in a world where ignorance seems to be the winner in most arguments.

    I must say Aaron, I think all religions are dopey but the Muslim religion is another story entirely.

    Having violence,retribution and murder of all those that don't agree with you as a central part of your mantra means that this religion has no place in this or any other world.

    Cheers.

  18. As muslims we are ordered to seek knowledge. It is compulsory upon those who are by the means to simply go out into the world and learn.

    The prophet Mohamed also said however: 'Adaab ul fou'qal ilm' which means 'respect comes before knowledge'

    Now there are many differences of oppinion on this quote but wen considered with other historic recordings its profound significance is quite clear.

    One day a group of jewish men were carrying the body of a deceased jewish man to a burial site. As they walked by the place wer the prophet mohamed was sitting with his companions, the prophet stood up and bowed his head. When asked by his companions why he did this he said that it was merely a sign of respect. The quran and the prophet clearly teaches respect and tollerance of all faiths, religions, and even differences of oppinion between people concerning even the most trivial of things. Sadly many of us have forgotten this.

    Islam is derived from the word salaam. Which in arabic means peace. How ironic it is that the stereotype of our faith has come to mean exactly the opposite. Because of a minority of uneducated, arrogent and ignorent muslims.

    Islam also teaches that we as humans are the favourite of gods creatures and as favorites have been blessed with the greatest of all gifts...free will. The ability to think and decide for ourselves.
    However this gift 'akl' or free will comes at a price. Our 'nafs'. Now its is hard for me to clearly illustrate in a few words exactly what 'nafs' are. It is an unfair and innacurate translation but the best english word that can describe it is 'desire' to say that it governs our moods or feelings is somewhat of an unfair description but closest to that which you would understand when loosely translated. Nafs is responsible for arrogence, ignorence, disrespect, etc. One can therefore say that an uneducated or excersized mind is constantly at the mercy of ones nafs. So things like racism, intollerance, disrespect are attributes of a lesser mind.

    Many muslims like any human being have allowed their anger to consume them. Therfore inhibiting their ability to make rational decisions. The quran simply refers to disbelievers as those who have gone astray. When the saudi's translated this into english they put...like the jews and critians in brackets. Idiots. How dare they. This is not the teaching of the quran nor our prophet. But I state this as a simple example of how we have allowed our faith to become the stereotype it is today.

    Now I assume you are an educated man darren. I'm sure you are well aware of the hundreds of great muslim minds who have contributed profoundly to the areas of science, math, astronomy and so forth. Lets not alow a few feeble minded extemists and their trail destruction to govern your oppinion of an entire faith. The rabbit holes goes so much deeper than that which you see and I am saddend that I cannot educate you further.

    I am a muslim illustrator, and I laugh at these offensive cartoons because they are funny. It doesnt make me angry, just sad because I know they are simply a reflection of misguided, uninformed oppions.

    I believe in freedom of speech. But not when it attacks someones charachter. I cannot and will not mock nor disrespect your beliefs what ever they may be. I humbly request you do the same.

    btw. I thort i'd share an irony about your blog. Despite your anti islamic oppinions you have an add promoting muslima.com to keep your site up. Now that...is funny.

    Keep well darren perhaps I'll see you in the afterlife:)

  19. Hi Ashiq,

    thanks for your thoughts.

    It seems a well reasoned and cogent argument without personal abuse.

    I haven't got time to answer you fully as yet but I will at the end of the day because you deserve a well thought over response.

    The advertising is Google and I have little control over it, it mimics the subjects that are written about. :)

    Regards, Darren Rickard

  20. Hi again Ashiq, nice of you to have a considered approach to this subject. As you can see from some of the comments they have been violent and personal attacks on my person.

    All I did was comment on those cartoons and the violence, death, destruction and censorship that followed their publication from the Muslim world at large.

    These kind of reactions to free speech cannot be tolerated by any of us and they must be condemned at every opportunity.

    You say at the end of your comment:

    You say you believe in freedom of speech Ashiq but then say I cant criticize your beliefs. That my friend is not freedom of speech.

    I would be interested to hear your reply.

  21. Hello. I am a Turkish. but not a muslim.

    and, that first cartoon have a symbol like turkish flag

    this is turkish flag...

    http://turkbirdev.info/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/Turkish_flag2.360192241.png

    so, that cartoon artist may dont have enough knowledge about what he( or she ) drawing. because, that symbol not a symbol of muslims. but some people may think that is a symbol of muslims.

    its turkish flag. and turks are not murder...

    there is muslim turkish people,
    there is christian turkish people,
    there is atheist turkish people,
    there is deist turkish people,

    all that people living in Turkey. and turkey just developing. may not perfect a country to live. but we know that, Turkish people not terorist.

    so, you cant use that symbol with your anti-muslim idea... if you think " i cant! " so, i just say this, you is real murder. because u killin 70 million people with your wrong idea...

    if you dont see Turkey never, u cant use that symbol again.

    i dont see never japan, or russia, or england.. i can say " christian faith wrong! " but i cant use this sentence with england flag or france flag... because france or england not mean christianism...

    countries cant have religion. people may be..

    Turkey is a republic. Governement dont have a religion. you may think "iran muslim" but u cant think " Turkey is muslim. " because i am a Turkish. but i am not Muslim. and you making dirty my Country flag with your wrong ideas... so. i must say this again : being a turkish not about with dna codes. being a turkish, living in Turkey republic. if you move Turkey, you will be a turkish for me. if i move to germany, i will be a german for me... Turkish means this. not racism. not religious thing. it just mean " being a human living in Turkey land... "

  23. Anon, little of the violent backlash from Muslims reported over the publication of these cartoons was "made up" and neither is most reportage. You are in denial.
